"It was great….."

Arlo Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was very nice! Great location, very nice room and bathroom, and we loved the terrace. It was a bit noisy but you’re in a city so that’s to be expected. I brought earplugs and slept great. Parking was a little confusing and not very well explained but we figured it out."

Washington Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"People were amazing"

Conrad Washington, DC

Hilton Garden Inn Washington DC/U.S. Capitol

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, convenient location."

Morrison Clark Historic Inn

10/10 Excellent

"As a single female solo traveller who came to town to see all the best museums I never had to get on the subway once to go to any of the Smithsonian museums. It was in an extremely safe neighbourhood and to add to the security this hotel, also had a doorman who greeted you going in and out, but totally non-intrusive. You felt like you were being treated royally and the size of it is just a boutique hotel so there were never any huge crowds in the very quaint lobby, never had to wait for anything highly recommend would stay there again upon return but very comfortable. My only drawback was the fact that the room good benefit from one additional lamp as the room was a little bit dim when the sun wasn’t shining."

The Henley Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very nice boutique hotel that I was able to find for a last minute stay for one person. Near the convention center and metro. The room was quite small. The windows faced the windows of an office building so curtains always needed for privacy. Gym was very small also and fine for one person at a time. Good stay for the price for one person."
