If you're looking for a great place to stay in this part of town, check here FIRST. Completely overhauled this year, the ... rooms are modern, spacious, and comfortable. Service was excellent, facilities are meticulously maintained, and the location is great (two blocks away from Union Station). One caveat: valet parking is nearly essential and not cheap ($34/day for us); however, the valet staff is quite helpful. Don't count out the restaurant on premises: it is quite a find, especially in a city where many of the better restaurants are found inside hotels. The bar and cigar lounge is of particular note and is a welcome addition, most notably when the weather is less-than-friendly. Highly recommended.

The hotel was my home away from home for almost a week. During that time, all of the staff I encountered made me feel ... welcome, and handled my requests quickly and efficiently. The bed was comfortable. Wireless service was easy to access. There are several nice restaurants within just blocks of the hotel. And the location was great for access to Capitol Hill, the Mall and Union Station.

As an alternative to the Metro and cabs, catch the Circulator bus in front of the Postal Museum-great route all the way to Georgetown, $1 per ride or $3 all day.

The Hotel was within minutes to the Union station, so easy to get to everything. Dont eat in the hotel too many other places ... ie My Brothers Place and The Court grill and brewery. The Union station has plenty of food. The room was fantastic and very comfortable after touring all day. staff friendly and better to visit on the weekend for stay and touring. Had a great time, will stay there again

Great deal and a very good hotel
Alex Sep 7, 2009
We were traveling with friends to Washington DC to see the capitol and all the museums etc. We didn't want to rent a car and ... have to search for parkings in a busy big city center. So we decided to find a good deal on the hotel near the transportation center. And we found this nice deal. This hotel is just couple of blocks away from the Union Station. And it's really close, walking distance, to the National Mall, this famous national park in downtown Washington, D.C. It's almost all we needed. Quite a lot of dining opportunities around the hotel and inside. Complete the picture.

BRING OUR CAR WHEN WE LEFT - GAVE THEM LOTS OF NOTICE, STILL HAD TO WAIT FOR 15 MINUTES WHEN WE GOT DOWN THERE. DISAPPOINTED IN THAT THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE ROOM SHOWING WHAT THE HOTEL OFFERED.

Unprofessional staff
Ann Aug 30, 2009
This hotel is very conveniently located. However, the staff is in disarray. There's a "cleaning crew shortage" on the day I ... checked-in; there's no available 2-double room at the time I got there and they put me (with my family) in a queen promising to move me when 2 double became available (which was my reservation). However, that didn't happen instead I was told that they couldn't move me because they've already checked me in a king and they can't afford to clean 2 rooms since they're short of cleaning staff. As a customer, i guess I'm not a priority even though there's an available room. And the manager wasn't much help either.

This hotel was outstanding. For a couple of friends going to DC for the weekend, Washington Court was ideal. It's only a ... few blocks from Union Station, so we just walked right over and saved money by not getting a cab. The restaurant in the hotel seemed a bit pricey, so we just ate and the bar & grille across the street. The one downfall to the hotel is that there is no pool. Overall, the hotel was great. No complaints at all!
