Top National Museum of African American History and Culture Hotel Reviews

citizenM Washington DC Capitol

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was overall amazing...and in a nice location too! The view of the Capitol from the rooftop sushi bar, the Wharf just about 10mins away by walk, and if you are touring DC, every site you may be looking for is a walking distance. Notice I'm not talking about the rooms and staff coz these were already above board. Enjoyed my stay!"

State Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was very clean and safe. The restaurant was very good."

Washington Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"will go back, the location, and amenities were fantastic!"

Arlo Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"We really were impressed with our room and the entire hotel. Great location, very clean, very comfortable and would definitely recommend."

Club Quarters Hotel White House, Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and big enough to have space. The staff was professional and welcoming The location is perfect to experience the downtown area. I loved that the metro was right next door."

Hilton Washington DC National Mall The Wharf

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in need of renovation and the hotel is connected to a mall downstairs which has cockroaches in it. The sheets on the bed had holes in them. The room was very dusty. The only parking available is valet and it’s $65 dollars a night. We loved the close walking to the National mall and the Starbucks inside the 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."

Willard InterContinental Washington by IHG

8/10 Good

"Ridiculous amenity fee. Otherwise a nice stay"
