Just Great!
the room had everything you could imagine...even a small TV in the bathroom. The beds were comfortable and there was more than adequate space for haning clothes. The location was close to downtown and the Mall. The hotel had a very nice dining room and a separate bar. There was a discount for staying on Sunday. so, it worked out GREAT!

Excellent location, close to metro, friendly staff, clean rooms
Our experience at the Washington Court Hotel was absolutely awesome. The location was great--only 2 blocks to Union Station. The up side was that on the way to Union Station, it was slightly uphill, which was fine because in the morning you were full of energy, then in the evenings, when you were wore out, it was down hill all the way to the room! The staff was very friendly. We asked a lot of questions regarding tours, etc. and they were always happy to help. Our room and the hotel in general was very clean and the beds were comfortable. I can't comment on any of the restaurants because we didnt eat there. I honestly cannot find one negative thing to say about our stay--and since I am usually a very picky traveler, this is definately out of the ordinary. I highly recommend this hotel!

Good Value
Very comfortable room. I choosed the king size option and I do not regret. The hotel seemed to be empty consequently it is very quiet. The location is good, close to the airport and Washington central area. The price was excellent specially when you compare with the available hotels for that price.

The location was great, and because of this we had no need for a rental car. Union Station was 1 block away and we used it to go everywhere. Hotel service was good and the rooms were very roomy and nice for my family of three. The meals at the hotel were good but quite expensive so we only ate one breakfast at the hotel while we were there ($50 for three people). Check-in and check-out took all of 5 minutes. I would like to stay there again.
