Top Northwest Hotel Reviews

Hotel Washington

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room"

Motto by Hilton Washington DC City Center

8/10 Good

"You have to know this is a micro-tel. We've had much larger staterooms on cruise ships. But, there was space under the bed for our luggage, it was quiet, clean, and comfortable. Best of all, it was an easy walk to Capital One Arena, and a stop on the Old Town Trolley tour."

Hotel Lombardy

10/10 Excellent

"This historic building is delightfully charming offering spacious rooms. The water pressure and temperature in the shower is the best I have enjoyed in an older building. The location is near a multitude of restaurants serving diverse cuisine and within walking distance of many points of interest in DC. Staff are friendly and helpful. I'm booking with them again to see the Washington National Opera which now performs at the Lisner Auditorium."

Hamilton Hotel Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"We were in D.C. for a long weekend getaway. We arrived at The Hamilton 3 hours before check-in time anticipating to have our luggage put in the luggage hold. We were pleasantly surprised to be told that our room was available. The lobby area was beautiful, and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. Our room was a reasonable size, and very clean. The hotel is very conveniently located - 1 block away from the closest Metro Station (McPherson Square) and blocks away from many of the areas we were heading."
