Just got back from a wonderful extended weekend in Washington DC. We booked the Residence Inn @ Carlyle thru the Mariott website. This Hotel was fantastic!! New and Spotless!!They upgraded us from a 1 bedroom to a 2 bedroom when we arrived-tons of room with a nice kitchen-perfect for a family! The breakfast was a full buffet with hot food.... more

Our family stayed here for about three weeks while we waited to close on a new house in the area. We were impressed on an almost daily basis with a different member of the staff. We stayed in two different rooms when we checked in and out again for a vacation. One had a full sized oven with a table... more

My parents stayed 2 nights at this hotel, which was chosen for the "suite" aspect- kitchenette, etc. It was new and clean. They had a studio suite, which was perfect. The room was well-appointed and the kitchen was spotless. The staff were very friendly and the neighborhood was nice and quiet, but close to restaurants, shopping, and the Beltway. The... more

Like another reviewer indicated, the breakfast area can be very noisy and crowded in the morning. I love the in-room kitchenette complete with full-size... more

Having stayed at one Residence Inn on another vacation, we thought we would give this new hotel a try. We were very happy we did. It had all the amenities one would want or need for a vacation.
