Top Cardozo Hotel Reviews

State Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our 2 days here at the hotel, and we will always stay here if we come back. I cannot say enough about the staff! Every single person on staff genuinely connected with us. The room was spacious! We had a small kitchen, so we would eat breakfast in... and then be out on the town the rest of day. Cleaning lady was wonderful, and restocked our little kitchen each day with coffee and ice. Nice! We loved being around the George Washington Campus, which made for lots of places to eat. For easy eats hit Western Market. International quick eat restaurants. We LOVED North Italian Restaurant about an 8 minutes beautiful walk for a sit down vibrant beautiful restaurant."
