Top Anacostia Hotel Reviews

Hamilton Hotel Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"Todo muy limpio y muy cerca de todo."

Holiday Inn Express Washington DC Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This stay was wonderful! The staff was incredibly helpful and kind. Our room was just right after a day of exploring DC. We only had breakfast one of our days and it was busy but the variety of food was great and the busyness only speaks to how good the breakfast was. I definitely recommend staying here. It’s a little further out from the DC landmarks so if you have a family plan on seeking transportation options for the sights but the hotel itself is close to great shops and great food options all within walking distance. I felt very safe and well cared for as a mom traveling with children."
