Casual, classy hotel in downtown D.C. with health club, spa, restaurant
The Capital Hilton caters to a variety of travelers. Business travelers love the location in downtown D.C., upscale restaurants nearby, and ample meeting space. Families appreciate the two-bedroom suites, children's menu at the restaurant and casual atmosphere. The hotel is close to D.C. museums and attractions. Amenities go overboard at the on-site spa and health club with personal trainers. Whiskey lovers should take note of the Glenmorangie tasting at the on-site Statler Lounge.

fantastic location, great people..
I arrived about 4 hours earlier than my check in as I was there for a large event in DC. I was able to check in early because the rooms were done, cleaned, and ready earlier than normal. The woman at the front desk smiled the whole time and said I could check in early so I didn't have to leave my bags in their locker room. We got in the room and it was a corner view... literally, three blocks from a bunch of decent night clubs, bars. One block from the metro. Awesome location, awesome price, awesome people.

Hilton Honor Members
Be aware. When I tried to use my hilton honor points they would not allow me. I could respect this, but get this my hilton honors would not allow me to go to the lounge. This was quite disburbing and to say the least I plan to escalate this to the VP of operations when I have a moment to write out a letter. I've stayed at this hotel many times over the years, and this was the first they would not take my hilton honors and apply points and they would allow me to the lounge. Boy makes you wonder from a customer service level what were they thinking.

Great Hotel
The Capitol Hilton was absolutely wonderful! They have the best onsite fitness area I have ever seen!! The room was very open and comfortable. The hotel personnel were very helpful and kind. I'd give them a 12 on a scale of 1-10! Staying there for a business trip was a wonderful experience and they are only 2 blocks from the Metro Station!!

Washington DC Gem
Great place to stay! Easily located near all of Washington's destinations, especially the White House. We only stayed for one night because we had a lot of things planned in two day's time, but would love to come back! Only a few things I noticed about the room that I didn't like: there was freshly chewed gum on one of the window curtains, but easily removed with tissue; when we first entered the room it was extremely warm, and the air conditioning didn't really cool the room down much; there was a slight sewage smell coming in from outside through the A/C vent but later disappeared; and lastly, the shower curtain had no liner so the floor got very wet when we had to shower. Other than that, this was a wonderful place to stay!

Plan everything before you go: destinations, subway trips, and time. This helped us to see almost everything in two days. Also, the subway is the best way to travel between destinations. You can buy an all day pass which is good if you use the subway many times in one day, or figure out how many times you plan on using the subway, calculate the distance costs, and by farecards with that amount. We saved nearly $30 by doing this!

Excellent value for $
We were very happy with our stay. The room was clean and the bed linens & pillows were very comfy. Normally we would use the fitness equiptment, but this trip did not, so cannot comment. The location is super-about 2 blocks to the White House and many attractions are walking distance. Would not hesitate to stay there again next trip to D.C.

Excellent stay
We stayed for three nights at the Capitol Hilton and it was great. The location is great, close to the White House and other DC highlights. There are a lot of restaurants nearby as well as places to get breakfast or lunch. The room was quite large, with a comfortable sofa, desk and an excellent king size bed. The staff was friendly and helpful and the rooms were clean. In short, it's the perfect place to stay for people who like to visit DC for sightseeing.
