Washington Hotels in Foggy Bottom - West End

Great bed, nice, modern room. Amazing location.

Our room had a view of a brick wall, very disappointing. The room service was very poor and very expensive. Travel channel fans, don't come here expecting an amazing sandwich, it is no longer available.

Great location also amazing views ,fun staff and lobby had nice vibe turns into social setting with a DJ

When I arrived was able to get a room right away as requested but it didn't have a view . And had ask the guy that was checking me in if I had a view he says yes I do , I walk in to my room it was a room facing the inside I of the building no view very disappointing so went back down and young lady was able to get us a much nicer room very happy . During the evening they have DJ in the lobby so when out all day and came back you requested your room key in order to get in the hotel not happy about that

Very clean, quiet and accommodating.

Nice lobby, courteous staff, comfortable bed.

Tiny gym, mold in the bathroom grout, room amenities were average, surprising amount of wear and tear in our room for a hotel in this category.

Staff was excellent; great location

The walls are paper thin and the person next door had a party until 3 am. Impossible to sleep.

Location was great. Wonderful room. Two good restaurants with great staff but a bit expensive. All staff members were great! Fitness room was available even in this boutique setting. My son lost his stuffed animal while we were there and they left a new one in the room for him - it made him very happy (they later found his but let him keep the new one, "Freddie".

Restaurant was too expensive, especially for breakfast. Fitness room was a bit small.

location of the hotel on center of the capital.

in the 9th floor on my suite there was very noise left , which have a big sound when arrive to the floor, so he wakeup me of my sleep, many times on every day of my 12th night.

I liked the comfort and facilities particularly. We stayed in a two bedroom apartment and we were a group of 3 adults. The space was large and comfortable. The heating system was easy to manage and the kitchen area was better stocked with utensils/equipment than the place we stayed in NYC. I was particularly pleased to have a washing machine and dryer in the apartment. The staff were very welcoming and helpful with information. The location was also excellent - just a short walk from the White House and it was an easy walk to most museums etc.

Our criticisms of AKA are minor. A "light breakfast" is available Monday to Friday. This is tailored to the American market. We would have found it more usuable if more cereal options and toast were provided.

very comfortable bed and room

Most of the staff was excellent but one person was not friendly and didn't make effort to upgrade the room since the door of the room they gave me was broken. A second person immediately changed the room for the better.

I liked everything. The room was modern, well appointed, with a comfortable bed, and spacious bath. The staff was as pleasant and helpful as any I have encountered in some time. The location is great! I ate in the restaurant once and I enjoyed my meal. I look forward to my next visit.

The closet space in the room I had was limited and would probably be tight for two people. This is a very small fault in an otherwise very pleasant stay.

Location was great.

Stayed for 5 days and requested an additional day (midweek) and was told rate would over double what I had paid since I booked with a "third party". Spoke with manager in the morning and was told she'd call room in 15 minutes. After an hour and a half waiting with no contact we packed and left. Happily stayed at a Kimpton 4 star hotel in Alexandria that was less money and awesome. Left with a really bad taste in my mouth for Hampton Inns.

Staff and free snacks were great.

Nothing

The location 24 hr coffee station clean rooms

Small room configured & supplied for the single business traveler. One bath towel 4 the family.

The location was great! The hotel is only a few blocks from the White House and National Mall.

The valet parking was $36 per day and I don't believe there were any self parking options available other than on the street. Street parking must be paid until 10:00 on Saturday night and is free on Sunday.

Very clean, room was nice. Staff was great. Pool not great, but we were sightseeing, so not a big deal.

Service was excellent

They changed me an extra 200 dollars when I checked into the hotel, despite prepaying on Kayak

Very accomodating

Super clean, well laid out room. Quite big for an urban hotel. Everything works well. Well thought out.

Reservation was not honored!

Excellent location for much of downtown DC.

Around Midnight my room filled with old cigarette smoke as someone began smoking in the stairwell. The air quality overall in my particular room was poor, requiring the windows to be opened as much as possible. This of course made it difficult to sleep as the city sounds in DC near The White House are loud and replete with sirens 24/seven. Normally, one might cover one's ears to have silence. However, at this hotel the pillows are the size for small children.

The location and comfort here is great! Overall very good value!!

The room was a little tight. Room had empty box of tissues, could of been a bit cleaner, dust.

The staff were helpful and nice and the location was convenient. The kitchen is a nice convenience, but not needed for a short stay.

The carpet in the room was dirty. There is no fan or window in the washroom so steam from the shower stays in the room, this causes humidity and mold. I'm allergic to mold so this was very uncomfortable. The hotel has two towers, and only one common washroom with one stall located in the other tower. If you have a late flight out you can store your suit cases but no place to change. The toiletries were advertised as designer. It was bath and body brand. The washroom was dirty, hair in the tub. I don't recommend the Hotel for physically challenged guests as there are steep stairs up to the elevator from the lobby. I had to struggle with the suitcases up the stairs. Beware that the hotel charges if there are more than 2 occupants in the room. This was not disclosed at booking. They also charge for incidentals at check in. I found this Hotel to be Overpriced for what you get. I stayed at the Marriott down the street last year, I payed about the same and had a much nicer room, pool, etc.

BEDBUGS. I had to launder everything and throw away my luggage. very annoyed. have stayed here before but will not be going back.

The room was bright, clean and nicely decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchenette was fantastic! Stocked with the best shortbread cookies!

The double doors were unnecessary. Bathroom was a bit small.

Great location, walk to anywhere. Spacious room with separate kitchenette. Elegant and stylish. My wife enjoyed the makeup table in the room. Helpful staff.

Noisy HVAC. Slow draining shower / tub with slippery bottom. Not enough outlets to power all our devices at once.

Beautiful lobby, great DC location, helpful staff, lovely room. A value I don't understand but was happy to have. Lovely room. It was great!

As a group we did not enjoy breakfast in the restaurant.

We absolutely loved our stay at The Mayflower. My husband and I were there to renew our vows on our anniversary and the staff were extremely welcoming, making sure our room was ready several hours before normal heck-in hours so that we could get dressed and off to the ceremony in time. I can't think of a single thing that was less than exemplary- the loveliest hotel in DC!

- Very convenient location - Bed fairly comfortable - Lotion, soap, and shampoo/conditioner provided were of good quality

- Furniture worn, iron burn on the dresser, battered lampshades, etc - Rusted drain in bathtub - Large gaps between bath fixtures and shower wall tiles - Air conditioning was bare minimum for Washington D.C. heat - Thermostat not easy to set--or not responding - Rooms at back of hotel look out on a very nearby office building and an alley where the garbage is collected between 5 and 6am. - No sheer curtains for privacy on windows (which face alley and nearby office building) - Could hear conversation in neighboring room - No breakfast of restaurant (though some choices nearby) - Lobby was completely under construction with no air conditioning and certainly no kind of lounge area

I liked the price and location phenomenal and very close to everything. Can uber for around $5-10 every from this location.

The only thing that was not the best was the fact that they were doing construction work in the lobby which is not that bad and did not affect our stay very much at all but we did hear some pretty loud street noise early in the morning at 6 am on Saturday morning from the back alley as our room was located on the 3rd floor and south side.

Location was excellent to walk or take the metro everywhere, breakfast was good, evening reception 3 days a week with drinks and appetizers was good as well. The service and hospitality of the staff was top notch.

Parking is valet only and expensive, $45 a day. Thankfully we didn't rent a car and were able to just walk or ride the metro everywhere.

Rooms needed to be dusted. Mini bar is electronic and not a refrigerator; DO NOT TOUCH or you will be charged.

Good location, helpful staff

poor plumbing, below average food and very high cost of room service

Location

The staff (including management) did not respond adequately to their system being down during check in. Problems like that are expected but management did not issue an apology to all guests waiting in line for 30+ minutes and did not show the urgency to find an alternate way to check in all the guests affected by the hotel's system outage.

Valet parking was extremely slow and expensive

breakfast is simple but not bad.City centre is more than 15 to 20 min walking.

Hotel staff responce is rather slow and seems to have no signs of interest.

The room layout was perfect for travelling with children. Small but fully equipped kitchen, separate living and sleeping areas. The complimentary breakfast was excellent. Easy to walk to the White House, Washington Monument & Smithsonian museums.

Comfy bed. Spacious room. Service by all working there was awesome!!

We liked the location and the space in the room.

Our room had a full kitchen and someone cooked hamburgers. Every time we opened the door, we were hit with the smell of cooked hamburger. The staff came up with Fabreeze, but it didn't really help. The room could use an upgrade and there was no ventilation in the bathroom, nor were there any chairs on the balcony.

being able to store my bike for 12 hours! free breakfast

Good price for where I needed to be.

Clean room, big bed, hot shower, fast enough internet. Located near plenty of restaurants and pubs. Convenient to Metro.

$22 for breakfast, which in NOT included with the room?! Luckily, Bagels Etc is a short walk away. Coffee machine in room was nice, but staff left just two creamers each day.

Clean, rooms updated

Rooms a bit on the small side

Close to metro. They tried to accomodate my request of having a quiet room, away from the elevator. Overall, staff was friendly.

Thin walls, could hear everything going on in the adjoining room. Only one elevator of the two worked, though the staff tried to tell me otherwise when I asked (I had been there for 4 days by then and waited several minutes each time for the ONE elevator door to open). I tried to print my boarding pass in the business center, only to find out that the other computer was the only one which would print- why wasn't there a sign telling users this? I finally gave up after 10 more minutes of trying to print, as their internet was painfully slow. Not close to many restaurants unless you don't mind a 15 minute walk to the riverfront.

The location was ideal. Short walking distance to the Kennedy Center, restaurants along the Potomiac River, and the Mall.

The facilities, furniture, and furnishings are a bit older, but you get room to spread out in, the location is excellent, and the price is relatively inexpensive. It was great for a group visiting DC to explore all the wonderful sights to see.

We had absolutely no complaints!
