This lifestyle hotel, the closest to Capitol Hill, provides boutique service and style, and features unique, customized amenities that cater to individuals seeking an urban escape. In addition, the celebrity-chef restaurant, Art and Soul and destination lounge, ArtBar, offers guests and locals alike a chic environment in which to meet and connect.

Dont like rude dudes from the south. Sep 6, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Hotel was great, very clean, staff was great, very helpful and filled all our needs. Hotel was very clean, and in the best ... location we could ask for for the type of exploring we wanted to do. The only problem we had was with the rude General manager [...]. He was rude to my father and me on the rooftop area having a snack that was not from his resturant. Well, first of all it was not in the pool area, a fence seperated the areas, we had seen many others do the same, and no signs were posted advising us of this stupid rule. At which point we made up our minds to quit eating in his resturant and spent no more $75 to $80 meals from that point on. If we do stay at his hotel next time we visit DC, we will be sure not to spend one dime in the resturant. Furthermore hopefully he will not be the one in charge next time, too many people can do a much better job with a better and caring attitude. Hopefully he doesnt treat his employees as rude as he did his guests.

Liaison Capitol Hill Hotel

myway Sep 5, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

I like this hotel but find that the internet should be included in roomrate or cost less than the 9.95$ $/day i.e. 4 to ... 5$/day since most hotels offer nowadays free internet. The most expensive rate is the valet parking which amount to 45.92$/per day. A self parking at 10 or 15$/day should be created to leave customers more choice and flexibility. Only a happy few can afford the 45.92$/day.

We wanted a hotel within walking distance to many attractions, and the Liaison was perfect! It took us about five minutes to ... walk to the Capitol, and from there we could walk to all the other sites on the Mall. For meals we walked three blocks to the Union Station. One night we dined at the Capitol City Brewing Company across the street from the Union Station. At the Union Station you can also catch several tours. We took one to Mount Vernon. The hotel does not have great views, and there is a fire station next door. But we were rarely in our rooms and we asked for rooms away from the sirens so those issues were not big concerns to us. The rooms are small, but very clean (I'm a clean freak)...... and the beds...SUPER! The hotel staff members were friendly and accommodating. We didn't use the rooftop pool, but we did enjoy a beautiful evening sitting and visiting at a table on the roof.

No Affinity for Liaison; Affinia Hotel

Tiger40 Sep 1, 2009

Hotel advertises its rooftop pool. On arrival we were told they "invite" community members to use the pool on the weekend. ... Translation: the pool is used on the w/e to generate bar tab income from the dating crowd. Great for 20-somethings, but not for anyone else, which meant pool was not available for us when we had time in our schedule to use it. Updated, well-appointed but small room. (A/C did not work that well. We had a repairman in; not much better.) No coffee maker in the room and no complimentary coffee in the lobby. No vending machines on floors.

This was our first family vacation with all of us. I thought the location & the staff at the Liaison were great. The only ... request that I would have is to have a refrigerator, microwave, & coffee maker in the room. That is the one thing we missed the most. We did get a coffee maker, but had to request for coffee every day. Other than that I thought the motel was great.

Adequate hotel, decent location

Chicago mom Aug 26, 2009

The hotel is adequate. Reasonably spacious room, good beds and shower. Erratic internet ($10/day). No on-site coffee, ... snacks, fruit. Dark, dingy and noisy lobby, snooty staff. LOUD pool party on Sunday night. Overall the hotel thinks it is highly stylish and it is actually shabby and dark. Upstairs corridors are narrow, dark, cramped and not fresh-smelling. In our room the bathroom door would not close, the hot water faucet was broken, and there was no fan exhaust in the bathroom. Also no coffeemaker in the room, and no vending machine for a soda. We went to the Hyatt across the street for coffee and breakfast, or an evening snack, which was bright, welcoming, accommodating, friendly.

Fantastic price for the location

Baseball traveler. Aug 25, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

The staff was welcoming and helpful.No request was to big or to small.If they couldn't complete the task,they found someone ... who could.The beds made it for a good night's rest.The location,for our family,does not get much better.They do have an adult only Sunday night party on the top floor,by the pool.If you are into that kind of thing,it would work for you.For family travellers it does not.Not a big deal.The fire department next door did not keep us up at night at all.The thing for family travellers that made it difficult was trying to find some place to eat that was reasonable in price.We did find a small market up by Union Station and a Subway as well.They should offer microwaves,as this would make it another option.They did supply us with a fridge,just make sure you ask when reserving the room.After the 1st day,they did get us a coffee machine,which being an early riser,was great.However, I had to remind the cleaning staff most days to put new bags of coffee in the room. When asked they brought it up right away,so not a big deal.The Starbucks across the way does not open until 7am.Very strange hours. We found the liquor store a couple doors down has good coffee and a decent deli upstairs.We saw other hotel guests with children getting breakfast over there in the mornings.Decent price for D.C. The rooms were very clean.Some of the wall paper was peeling off,which seemed strange for such a hotel.Take some time to see what the hotel offers in the rooms.We missed out on a couple of things as we did not read the packet of info until later. My children loved the T.V.'s.The gym was clean,had what you needed and open 24hrs. We would for sure stay here again,if we were able to get the same kind of price.We booked months in advance and it did pay off. The location was great and secure.

If you have children&for a decent start in the morning,check out the liquor store deli a couple doors down.It opens early and is doable for D.C.,price wise.Be aware if you are travelling with more than 3 of you,sometimes it is cheaper to take a taxi instead of the metro.

The ... vanity in the bathrooms was too small and it was difficult to set up toiletries. They did provide an extra table just outside the bathroom that we could use to put up our toiletries but it was a little inconvenient. The bed had a down comforter and pillows which were nice and very clean. The TV was of first quality. The overall stay was very pleasant and Union Station just a couple of blocks away which made it so convenient to catch the Metro and get something to eat for a reasonable price.

A Week in DC

Northwesterners Aug 22, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

The Liaison is very close to Capitol Hill and the rest of the DC Mall. The room felt like a standard hotel room but with ... updated furniture. Overall, the Liaison was a nice place to call home for the week my wife and I were in DC.

Good hotel close to the Mall

Jose Aug 17, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Excellent location close to the Mall. The neighbourhood is quite "dead" after business hours but Union Station, with several ... dining choices is close to the hotel location.

Money savers tip, Short Walk

The subway enterance at Union Station is about four blocks away and is the cheapest and at times the quickest means of transportation in the city.

--Super woman, Los Angeles, CA Sep 1, 2009

Dining tip, Short Walk

The Union Station was the most convenient place to dine. It was also the least expensive place.

--first time visitor, Wisconsin Aug 28, 2009

Money savers tip, Short Walk

Use the Metro to get all around DC! Union station is only 2 blocks away and it is very inexpensive, clean and safe.

--Chicago mom, Chicago IL Aug 26, 2009

Dining tip, Short Walk

If you have children&for a decent start in the morning,check out the liquor store deli a couple doors down.It opens early and is doable for D.C.,price wise.Be aware if you are travelling with more than 3 of you,sometimes it is cheaper to take a taxi instead of the metro.

--Sonia, super mom, Naples, Florida Aug 17, 2009

Dining tip, Short Walk

Was a short walk to union station for a great breakfast at the main cafe in the center, for half the price and still complete with linen napkins, great service, and very good food. Also one block away was George's Hotel for a great dining experience also.

--Lana Miller, Salida, CO Aug 12, 2009

Dining tip, Long Walk

If you want a variety of eating options, you'll have to take the subway from this hotel. There really aren't many options in close proximity to the hotel.

--C-Town Traveler, Cleveland Aug 11, 2009

Entertainment tip, Short Walk

Smithsonian Postal Museum is a couple of blocks from hotel; right next to Union Station. It's great for kids. Not nearly as crowded as other museums and has hands-on activities.

--Family vacationer, Bloomington, IN Aug 10, 2009

Money savers tip, Short Walk

This goes out to all families who doesn't make $200,000+ a year like the hotel would hope you do. Goto Union Station for Meals unless there is another location you are willing to endure traffic for, you will save a HUGE ammount of money doing this, plus it's just a short walk away, about 1/4 mile most children can handle this. You will find a larger selection for less. We cut our breakfast down to $9.00 with taxes. BRING YOU OWN SNACKS AND WATER! Don't pay the hotel $4.00 for ONE bottle (very small) of water. It's just not any better. If you don't mind walking, walk everywhere, seriously don't pay for a cab you will get excellent exercise plus a chance to take some good photos. Budget about $100 for hotel parking. We spent about $100.00 for 3 nights ($45 per 24hrs)but we drove out to eat once.
