Top McPherson Square Hotel Reviews

Washington Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay and Great view"

The Architect

8/10 Good

"This hotel is properly priced for the experience and gives good value. The hotel is an old 5-6 story brick building with character. The exterior paint job is distinctive. The room was small, clean, the bed was comfy, the TV worked. The bathroom was clean and modern. There was a closet with hangers and an iron and ironing board. The unit that regulates the room temperature is loud. The fan light combo in the bathroom is really loud and you can’t turn off one without turning off the other. There are no amenities to speak of: no mini fridge, no coffee maker, the shampoo is combined with the conditioner and no body lotion is included. There is a hair dryer. Ice is in the basement. Stairways are well lit and clean. Staff was helpful. Location was great. Price was much less than others in the area. So it’s a good value just don’t expect a Marriott or Hampton Inn."

The Darcy Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room and bathroom were tight but comfortable. The TV had poor quality sound and picture. We had a surprise amenities charge so be prepared for that. The lounge was comfortable and had great food."

Hotel Washington

8/10 Good

"All areas were wonderful rooms were clean very good location only issue is the restaurant did not have enough help and we had to leave to go to another one"

Holiday Inn Express Washington DC Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay! Parking was expensive but we did our research ahead of time and knew what to expect. Parking in any city is always costly. We were accommodated with an early check in so we could make it to an event at Capital One arena, which saved us from having to pay to park at the arena and again at the hotel, which was amazing. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, kind and helpful. The room was immaculate and comfortable. There was a huge selection for breakfast and the 24 hour coffee/tea was a nice touch. A truly wonderful stay in a safe area of the city within walking distance to great restaurants, the arena and a grocery store. Retrieving our car from the valet was easy and fast. Would highly recommend!"

Hotel Zena Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff, easy walk to metro and convention center, lobby bar with fabulous decor promoting equality"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington D.C. – Convention Center

8/10 Good

"Convenient location and helpful staff. My shower did not function when I arrived (no water at all!). That was inconvenient for much of the early part of my stay."

Conrad Washington, DC

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay for a few days in the Dc area. The staff - especially concierge were kind and welcoming and we enjoyed getting breakfast room service. We also enjoyed the byredo bathroom supplies and the hotel in general as well as proximity to metro DC area."
