Great Family Vacation

Hotel is older and is about to be remodeled in the next couple of months. We had a wonderful time. Concierge was great with suggestions. They gave us a list of favorite restaurants. We ate at 4 of them and all were exceptional.

Conference - March 2012

Stayed 3 nights for a conference. Check-in/out was efficient. Concierge was helpful with bags. Room was clean, but small (no closet or iron). Wish the attached Starbucks stayed open later. Very convenient for McPherson Square subway station. Hotel "14K" restaurant was cleverly named, but overpriced. Good for business travel; probably better options for family travel.

Great location, accommodating staff.

Great location, able to walk to all the memorials. The staff was very accommodating. There are two things you should be aware of. One is the parking at the hotel is quite expensive which wouldn't have been a big deal if it wasn't a surprise at check out. The other is breakfast at the Hotel is overpriced and lacking flavor.

Excellent Location

Excellent location. Very helpful staff. The reason I rated it only average is because it is an old hotel and the rooms are a bit small. However, I would rate it excellent for its staff, location, health club except it did not have a jaccuzzi.

Fun Weekend

The hotel was nice. The drink prices at the bar are a bit high, but I suppose that is to be expected in DC. However, $20 for two drinks was a bit absurd.
