Club Quarters Hotel in Washington DC

8/10 Good

"This was the 3rd hotel I stayed at during my seven days in DC. By far it was the best, it was relatively inexpensive, literally on the subway and in a very walkable neighborhood."

Hamilton Hotel Washington DC

4/10 Poor

"This hotel felt much closer to a 2–3 star property than what was advertised in the pictures. The room had some historic charm but was worn and dusty, with discolored towels, cracked fixtures, very limited amenities, and poor shower pressure. We were charged a resort fee, but no one explained what it covered or what amenities were available. Overall, it was overpriced for the quality of the room, and I would not recommend it."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington D.C. – Convention Center

8/10 Good

"Check in, check out, and calls to the front desk were slower than expected because there was most often only 1 person at the front desk. I’d requested a quiet room in my reservation because we are very light sleepers but was given one by the pool on the 2nd floor which was very loud with pool traffic in and out of the area. The smell of chlorine was so strong it could be smelled all the way to my room. When we opened the door to my room the chlorine smell would enter and stay inside my room. The walls are also quite thin so we could hear the conversations of the room next door which was disruptive in the late evening and sometimes even at 3am during the holiday weekend. Given we would be staying 1 week, I asked for another room but the front desk person said they were sold out so we had to stay in the room. We did not have a pleasant stay given the noise and smells. I did find the room spacious and the breakfast included was a big plus. The location is convenient and walking distance to most major museums and monuments. If you don’t stay on the 2nd floor and you’re not sensitive to sound this would be a fine hotel option."

Hotel Zena Washington DC

6/10 Okay

"I enjoyed the hotel and its amenities. The location is great and the theme around women's empowerment was inspiring. However, I wasn't comfortable at all with the bed and my sleep. The pillows are truly awful and unpleasant to lay your head on. The bed is very hard. For my three nights at the hotel, I had a combined 7 hours of light sleep and that's being generous. This is not a hotel I would recommend for rest."

The Henley Park Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Nice basic boutique hotel with historic charm. Staff is small but helpful. I did have to wait a long time to check in which was unfortunate. Rooms are tiny but very clean. Carpeting in my room was worn and there was a tear near the bathroom. Bathroom was clean and updated, though. Beds are comfortable. It did not offer room service despite having a restaurant on site. There are no refrigerators in the room and no ice machines anywhere. They did bring me ice, though. Restaurant was quaint with good food but the ambiance on my last visit was disappointing due to ongoing staff conversation which could be heard from the kitchen and a very loud tv in the bar area despite the fact it was empty."
