Top National Museum of American History Hotel Reviews

Hotel Lombardy

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was adorable and the staff were amazing! I loved the vintage vibe, it felt old school without coming across as dated and everything was super clean. The hotel is very easy to access from metro stops, including the line that goes up to IAD. Walking distance to White House as well. Our tub drain had a bit of trouble draining, but to be fair I’m sure we could have called and had it fixed very easily - we just were only staying a couple days, so we dealt with it. Speaking of the shower- EXCELLENT water pressure, so good that coming home to my real shower was a sad experience! All in all was an amazing hotel and if we come to DC again we would strongly consider staying here again. The only thing I will caution future guests about is when we booked, it said the deposit/hold was $70 per accommodation and it was actually $190, but the hold was released within an hour or so of checkout, very quick!"

Hotel Washington

8/10 Good

"The hotel overall is very good, good value for the money. Good location for tourists. In terms of the interior environment (lobby etc.), it has a unique blend of that DC-common 'majestic design' style, mixed with contemporary fun vibe. The staff are friendly and helpful. I was lucky enough to get an early check in 9am-ish. They gave me a few vouchers that I could use in their Fireclay restaurant. The room is quite spacious. It has a safe (I think that was not mentioned in the list of amenities). They have complimentary bottled water. USB and USB-C charging ports around bedside. Nespresso machine (no tea). Personally I tend to like firm mattress, and the bed here is comfortable for me. There were a few minor drawbacks, mostly around the washing/bathroom area. There are very few provisions for hanging things (toiletries, towels etc). Would be nice to have a trash bin below the sink. Also the water can easily spilll out in the shower area, potentially making a mess in the bathroom floor. The hairdryer isn't great. Also - and this probably isn't the hotel's fault - there is a rather loud ice cream truck with an active exhaust stationed around the corner between 15th St and Pennsylvania Ave."
