Smith Mountain Lake

Absolutely incredible hotel that we happened upon on a whim. Brand new, absolutely stunning and Johnny the concierge made our night and had us feeling right at home despite the grandeur of the establishment. Can’t recommend this place enough and shout out to Johnny ❤️

Beautiful facility inside Galludet University. Allowable price and free parking in the middle of Washington DC. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The room was large and had many amenities. My stay was quiet and peaceful. I will definitely be back!

The good: This is a lovely rehabilitated historic building; we loved our room, the tall ceilings and wide hallways. We also enjoyed a drink at the bar. Our first night's stay was fine after the party in the courtyard ended around 9 p.m. Unfortunately, the second night was a nightmare. The people in the neighboring room on the second night of our stay were extremely loud, leading us to check out at 2 a.m. and drive home rather than put up with the noise any longer. We did contact hotel staff earlier in the evening, who followed up with them, but to no avail - after a brief period, they resumed the loud talking, and their dog barked on several occasions. There were also children running and making noise in the halls both nights, long past the time when small children should have been in bed. We may have simply been unlucky, but the experience was miserable.
