"10/10"

Holiday Inn Washington Capitol - Natl Mall by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I stayed for 7 nights between Christmas and Net Years. The staff were all extremely professional and very kind! The concierge was so friendly I felt like we had made a new friend. The rooms were clean and well stocked. The hotel was in the perfect Place to walk to the Smithsonian museums. The breakfast buffet had a large assortment of hot and cold foods each morning. Our suitcase broke in the flight to DC and it was no problem for me to have another one sent to the hotel from Amazon. I don't write reviews often but this hotel. Especially the staff, really stood out. I would highly recommend this hotel!"

Fairfield Inn by Marriott Washington D.C.
