Hotel Washington

10/10 Excellent

"Historical hotel with super clean rooms right across from the White House and the Mall.... absolutely wonderful..."

Motto by Hilton Washington DC City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, great location, especially for the price. I didn’t hear any street noise (I was on an upper floor though) or neighboring room noise so was a peaceful experience. Room is small but ideal for a solo traveler like me. Cool views from the window and I loved the Exorcist stairs art in the room. The gentleman working the front desk overnight shift from the 20th to 21st was very friendly and helpful."
