This hotel is excellent. The Housekeeping and Front Desk staff was awesome (Ashley at front desk). The room and beds were very comfortable. Thank you for making our stay great! more

I stayed at the Mayflower for the second time recently when I was in DC for a weekend getaway. If you arrive during times of heavy traffic (which seems to be always in DC), expect to get honked at a time or two as you wait for the valet to get to you. After that, your worries are over. The... more

Stayed in Nov 2009 for a conference. PROS 1. Elegant and impressive common spaces, great for holding large meetings. 2. 10 min walk to White House, 15 or so to the Mall. 3. History (and infamy) of the hotel add to its character! 4. Excellent service, from check in, to concierge, to bag check. CONS 1. Unacceptably SLOW internet access!... more

This was a find - a large and famous hotel but very elegant and beautiful at an affordable price. Lovely room for three of us with sitting area as well as comfortable beds. Good restaurant for breakfast although a tad expensive for dinner. Excellent breakfast buffet which was expanded on a Saturday and Sunday for brunch. Very pleasant and helpful... more

Located a half-block from the metro, this hotel provides an attractive downtown location to explore the tourist attractions of Washington, D.C. Our room was clean and comfortable, and we found management very helpful in providing whatever we needed. Our room was made-up on a timely basis, and the help was eager to do what they could to make our stay... more

I took my 88 year old father down to Washington, DC to see the World War II Memorial this month. I choose the Mayflower due to its location and great reviews. It lived up to it and more. The staff was wonderful and the rooms were clean and quiet. One of our rooms was not ready until dinner time, but... more

(We added a review in January 2008, but don't see it listed so we're adding another!) My husband and I spent a week at this lovely historical hotel during Christmas 2007 and we were overjoyed with the experience! We are Hilton Honors Members and reserved a room on the Executive Level and were treated like royalty. We were given the... more

This hotel is so far the worst 4-star hotel I have ever stayed. The lobby is nice and renovated, but not the rooms. The rooms really shows its age. Rooms are OK size. The house keeping was very efficient taking tips but not so much with the services. One night, we did not get our tea bags in the room... more

Stayed here as part of a short conference that took place at the hotel. The facilities were nice and the rooms were nicely appointed. It is an older, but well-maintained hotel with quite a history which is glamorized through plaques throughout the hotel. The only downside was the maid service. While done well, the room was cleaned very late in... more
