Top Bethesda Downtown Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington DC Chevy Chase Pavilion

10/10 Excellent

"Very helpful and friendly staff. The room was clean and well maintained. Breakfast is great if you eat eggs. The French toast, pancakes and potatoes were not up to snuff. Cereal and yoguart worked fine.. Would stay here any time."

The Henley Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is beautiful and the staff incredibly helpful. However, there was no information provided about the restaurant 's hour and offerings. When we wanted breakfast at 11 am, the restaurant was locked. It was only then we were told breakfast ended at 10:30, and lunch began at 11:30. I was a bit dismayed that our $354 room ended up being almost $500. A heads up about taxes and fees from Hotels.com would have been helpful."

Washington Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff, staff, staff. The staff, everyday during my stay made it a wonderful experience, I had to be at the hotel itself more than anticipated and they went above and beyond to be helpful. From the doorman, bellhop, desk check in, to the bartender. It was an awesome experience and I hope to return again. Thank the staff again for me, just let them know it was the guy with the huge long grey fuz jacket, they will remember! Keep that staff at all costs! Forgot the managers, they are all awesome and helpful as well! Excellent team at this time!"
