Arlo Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

AC Hotel by Marriott Washington DC Capitol Hill Navy Yard

10/10 Excellent

"The experience at the hotel was good. Staff at the front desk were friendly. The hallways smelled a little moldy and when we requested a clean, the bathroom wasn’t swept. Other than that, it was a good hotel."

Conrad Washington, DC

8/10 Good

"The room was amazing, and the property itself was absolutely stunning. Overall, I had a good stay, but there were a few areas where the service could have been better. There were several moments when staff didn’t seem as attentive or knowledgeable as I would have expected, even when asking fairly standard questions, such as the cost of valet parking. There were also times when calling Guest Services that the person answering the phone didn’t provide the warm or welcoming greeting I would typically expect from a property at this level. I also felt that the hotel could have been a little more accommodating with certain requests, particularly late checkout. While I understand that late checkout is always subject to availability, it was a little disappointing to see that a 4:00 PM checkout appeared to be available as a benefit for certain American Express guests, while there seemed to be much less flexibility otherwise. That said, the staff did make an effort to accommodate where they could, which I appreciated. Aside from those service-related issues, I really enjoyed my stay. The room was excellent, the hotel is beautiful, and the overall experience was still a good one. With a little more consistency in attentiveness, hospitality, and guest accommodations, the experience could have been exceptional."

Holiday Inn Washington Capitol - Natl Mall by IHG

8/10 Good

"The best location when visiting the Museum of the Bible, and most museums on the Washington DC Mall. The staff is very helpful and professional. The outdoor pool area is very nice. My room was away from the elevator and very quiet. I did not appreciate the very heavy presence of National Guard troops in the lobby at all times. Maybe it is a living situation for them. I might not book again for this reason"
