The hotel is situated about 12 minutes walk from the White House. Ask for a room overlooking the Circle otherwise you may be disappointed. The rooms are comfortable with tea/coffee and free wifi. There is also a business centre by the lobby with free access to 3 computers. We had breakfast once which, despite being reasonably priced, took nearly one... more

We were here on Labor Day weekend and found it a great time to get excellent rates and no crowds. All the hotel employees were very accommodating and friendly. The free coffee in the lobby was very appreciated! We were on the top floor overlooking the alley but found it quiet which is what we wanted. Our room, though not... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Courtyard By Marriott Embassy Row hotel in DC. The hotel was very elegant and clean. It was the perfect location for walking to the National Mall. It was probably about 4 to 5 blocks behind the white house. We started there and walked the entire mall from one end to the other. However,... more

I found the Marriott to be very friendly upon arrival. The lobby is nice and the complimentary coffee was very useful in the mornings. The staff is helpful and cheerful, which is refreshing in Washington, DC. The hotel is close enough to walk to the main attractions if you are up for it. Otherwise, its only about $5-$10 for a... more

I thought this was a great hotel for business. It is a little pricey - I paid $239 per night which seems extreme for a Courtyard, but all hotels in DC during the week are as expensive. I travel 25+ nights per year for work and this was a great experience. It is about a 10 minute walk to Dupont... more

I stayed here for several nights during the week as a result of a priceline bid. When I checked in - early in the day, I asked if it was possible to have a room on the front, and I was told by the young man checking me in - immediately and emphatically "no", there was no room because they... more

First, I want to say we went for July 4th weekend. This hotel was so cheap at $77/nt when you book 4+nts. How awesome is that? Second, you are within walking distance from EVERYTHING. 5 blocks from White House and 3 blocks from Dupont Circle for dining and entertainment. Pros: Front desk is amazingly friendly and helpful. They may looked... more

"I almost want to go back to The Renaissance Mayflower." That's what I was thinking upon arrival at this hotel. On the 4th floor, upon exiting the elevator we were bombarded by an overpowering chemical odor, but we trudged through it to our room hoping it would be better and that we wouldn't die by the time we arrived in... more

Our room was too small for 2 adults. One person would probably be comfortable in it. We did not try the $12.95 breakfast buffet and so cannot comment. Staff was quick to respond to a request for an extra blanket. The room was quiet and the bed was decent. One of the electrical outlets would work only if the prongs... more
