There are very few things that are not excellent about this hotel position it’s quite central, the stuff is amazing, common areas rooms all spotless, those sheets are to die for, plus being central you have the addition of free concierge parking a real bonus.
Only one thing though, the free Wi-Fi was a nightmare you can only register for 24 hours which means you have to go through the same labourious process at least every 24 hours even more annoying when you switched off your...

Excellent one night stay at the Archer. I arrived early and my room was already ready which was brilliant. Check in was smooth and quick, with a warm welcome from the team on reception. My room was incredibly spacious - huge - with a large bathroom and good size wardrobe. Wifi worked immediately with no login issues. Was easily able to chrome cast my Netflix content to the TV however was unable to access the regular tv channels (but this could be my lack of technological expertise!).

Friendly staff, comfy room, and nice area near the train station, metro and DC attractions. Next door is a proper pub that stays open after midnight, great to unwind in there with a couple of drinks before going to bed. If Im ever in DC again Ill look for a room here first

Really great hotel with a boutique feel, affordable and in an excellent location for the National Mall area. The staff are lovely and so helpful, got some great recommendations from Cara when we checked in. Didn't eat at the hotel but the pizza kitchen was very popular and the food looked good, the roof top bar was fun even on a miserable January evening so can imagine it's great in the summer.

Amazing hotel. Very clean & comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful.
Location is excellent.
Only negative I have is that my girlfriend messaged hotel to ask if pool was open and she was told
It was. It wasn’t, so we were very disappointed as this was a major factor of choosing this hotel.

Hilton Club The District consists of three floors on top of Embassy Suites, and shares the same bar, restaurant and pool. Check in is on the 8th floor, which is accessible from the ground floor only by the hotel's three elevators that are in constant demand. Rooms are spacious with large comfy beds, USB charging sockets, loads of storage, powerful showers and handy toiletries. The kitchenette has a sink, mini fridge and microwave, but while there are loads of drawers, curiously there is no...
