Top Tidal Basin Hotel Reviews

Hamilton Hotel Washington DC

8/10 Good

"The stay was great, and the staff was great as well however, I did have one problem with the cleaning lady entering my room too soon after knocking. My wife and I were both naked so we were trying to get something on before coming to the door."

Hotel Lombardy

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was nothing short of AMAZING! Everyone was so helpful and accommodating. Definitely recommend!"

State Plaza Hotel

"Great location. Easy check in. Clean room. Staff was super nice and helpful at check in. Just a great place to stay."

The Westin DC Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable beds, great location, valet helpful, room could have been cleaner. Leftover food in fridge."

Hotel Washington

8/10 Good

"Great location, room a bit old dated"

The Henley Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"It’s nice to see an Historic hotel still vibrant in downtown DC. I like the feel of the place. With that said it’s missing a lot of hotel amenities I’ve gotten used to….from a refrigerator in your room, a dresser for your clothes , a bottled water or two and an ice machine in the hallway. There were a lot of conveniences missing. Then there’s $59 a day for valet parking ….unless you were fortunate enough to find a spot on the street. I would shop around a little bit and read the amenities before choosing so you’re not disappointed."

Hyatt House Washington DC/The Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful service"

Motto by Hilton Washington DC Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel. Good location for concerts at capital one arena."
