3 star hotels in Washington

Nothing fancy but it gets the job done.  The parking lot is a bit sketchy though.

The room was clean, and the location was superb – right by the Aerospace Museum and very convenient for the airport. It was also incredibly easy to find. Highly satisfied.

The hotel is dated with some renovation needed. The room was decent and for location convenient reason is the only reason that I stay in it.

This is a pretty good hotel. It's extremely close to the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, just a few minutes' walk away. The only downside is that dining options in the immediate vicinity are very limited, with just a Starbucks (which is fine for breakfast) and a McDonald's right next door.

The hotel boasts an excellent location, directly opposite the U.S. Department of Education. It's just a 5-minute walk to the National Air and Space Museum, 3 minutes to the National Museum of the American Indian, 8 minutes to Capitol Hill, and 10 minutes to the National Museum of Natural History. The parking fee is a bit steep, at $59/day for unlimited in-and-out access to the underground garage. Breakfast...

The hotel's location is excellent, making it very convenient for exploring museums and Capitol Hill.

The hotel was very clean and conveniently located close to the convention center. The downstairs restaurant served an excellent breakfast, and the hotel's location was superb for getting around. I'll definitely choose this hotel again for my next business trip.

The hotel was pretty good, except for the first night when they didn't have a room available. Also, after the first day when I received two bottles of water, I didn't get any more for the remaining three days and had to buy my own. I actually made those two bottles last for four nights – I guess I don't drink much water!

Stayed here for my trip to Washington. It's pretty close to Chinatown. The hotel environment is great, and it offers good value for money. The room was cleaned daily. It's about a fifteen-minute walk to the main attractions.

Pretty new hotel. Good service clean room. Location is pretty good as well. Parking is expensive

Spacious and ideally located near Chinatown, all for a great price!

They didn’t clear out the trash when I first check in. I enjoyed using their gym. Location is good, but there’s still a little of walk. I guess the location is a little bit awkward to get to like Logan Square or the other square. Generally, it was a good experience.

The location is super convenient—just a five-minute walk from the main station. My room was clean, quiet, and surprisingly spacious. The staff were friendly and spoke excellent English, which made check-in smooth and easy.

The hotel is in a good location, with lots of nice restaurants nearby. The room was spacious and clean, and all the staff were friendly. The only complaint was that they couldn’t provide a king-size bed for us, even though we paid and booked online. They explained that they had run out of king-bed rooms, so they gave us a room with twin beds instead, along with some breakfast vouchers to make up for...

Nice hotel, good location, helpful staff.

Overall, a stylish and comfortable hotel in a great location. However, the bathroom design could be improved — the door was hard to open, water easily leaked out during showers, and the transparent curtain made it feel less private. Still, the staff were friendly and the room was clean and modern.

The location and service at this hotel is really wonderful. The location is close to the white house and the national mall so most things are within walking distance. Also, the service is really excellent, the best I've had in a long time since the staff anticipates your needs. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Great location. Staff were friendly and helpful. Convenient onsite marketplace with good breakfast options. Complimentary tour of Arlington Cemetery is an excellent bonus.

Room is typical of Courtyard. Located right beside the Subway Station. Room faces the subway tracks and Amtrak tracks. If you like trains, this is the hotel to stay at.

Great location - same building as the metro station is and within 10 minute ride to DC Centre. Clean hotel. No frills. Smaller rooms only due to a large couch in the room which can be moved. Lots of eateries in the neighborhood and across the hotel including Trader Joes and 7 eleven. Also a restaurant and a bar in the hotel.

The hotel is conveniently located near to the subway station, also near to the Union Market and various different shops

It's well located, especially with the metro right next door. There's a shopping area very close by and a 24-hour supermarket right outside. The staff is very attentive. The room is very spacious and well-equipped! I recommend it for its value.

The hotel is located behind Union Station, next to a relatively new residential area. Although it's called the Capitol Hotel, it's actually about a half-hour walk from the Capitol. The room window overlooks the station tracks, but thankfully the soundproofing is good, so you can't hear the trains passing by. The room is large and comfortable. It has a refrigerator and microwave, which solves many problems...

Excellent location. Breakfast is not offered well if compared with before.

2nd time we have stayed at Pentegon City Ritz. We have been fortunate enough to stay at many great hotels, but none can compete with this hotel. The service is so far beyond anywhere else, from the second you check in, they refer to you by name, the property is immaculate and very high end, room was great. As for location, its not too far from DC landmarks, and right next door to the Pentagon...

This was one of the best Ritz Carlton‘s that I have been at. Mainly, the staff is absolutely wonderful and so helpful. We were in town for the Marines marathon so we had four amazing nights staying at this hotel. The restaurant Sante is fantastic. The hostess was so friendly and when I returned, she remembered my name! The housekeeping is top-notch and very respectful the front desk staff welcome desk...

The hotel is great, after all, it's the Ritz! The location is also very convenient, with a subway station right outside, shopping malls, restaurants, and bars next door, and taxis are easy to get around. It's very close to Reagan Airport, and a little further from Dulles Airport, but not too far either; a taxi ride would cost a few tens of dollars…

The rooms are spacious and clean. The lobby entrance is a bit small. Transportation is extremely convenient; the Pentagon City subway station is right outside the lobby, and it's only four stops to Washington, D.C. The Pentagon shopping district is nearby.

I am very satisfied with the hotel facilities and cleanliness.

Although the hotel is a bit old, it still guarantees the quality of a four-star hotel. The location of the hotel is also quite convenient for dining and shopping.

I stayed for a 1 night layover at DCA so appreciated the convenient shuttle service. The hotel staff, front desk and Bistro, were great. The room was large and clean. I'd definitely stay here again.

Staff in this hotel is usually terrible about operating. They almost always make mistakes (send two different booking to one room happened twice) inattentive and some of them can be rude. There are exceptions but 90% of the staff is the same. I am guessing is the corporate culture in this specific location. You need to pay for parking.

Everything was 10/10. Great stay! No complaints at all except how much the daily parking is, that itself is insane.

Clean rooms..polite staff.. environment was very relaxing and will come again

Didnt like that you had to pay $49 a pay for parking. Not sure if that was included when we were looking for hotels

I stayed at this hotel for a short time, but I really enjoyed it. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. One of the biggest advantages is its convenient location close to the airport, which made my trip much easier. I would definitely consider staying here again.

Great location! The hotel is super close to Chinatown and the metro, so it's easy to commute. The staff were also very helpful

Great location in Chinatown, very close to the subway station, and surrounded by many affordable restaurants. The room was perfectly clean, no issues at all.

the hotel is at the opposite of Metro, easy to find. the receptionists were friendly.

The location is absolutely fantastic, though you do sacrifice a bit of room space. It has a very 'Japanese hotel' feel – compact, yet perfectly equipped with everything you need. I think it offers great value for money for travelers.

The room was definitely very small, but beautifully designed. If you book for a weekend, be mindful that it gets very noisy outside, continuing late into the night. While the hotel advertises dry cleaning services, they actually don't have an on-site dry cleaning facility.

The room was extremely small, with barely enough space to move around. There wasn't even room for our luggage.

We booked this hotel for a quick getaway. The location was within walking distance to many of the monuments and sites you want yo see. The staff was incredibly accommodating, the romm was clean and accessible. Highly reccomended.

Excellent location the hotel was very clean and the staff was very friendly. I loved it.

a 7 walk from nearest metro, a bit far especially with luggage. there is bus stop just outside the door but not frequent. the room was huge. there is coffee machine in the room which is great. some more a kettle which is rare! but the building is a bit complicated as they gave me one in the north tower which requires walking cross a basement carpark from the front desk to reach my lift lobby.

Excellent location and clean, large rooms.

Excellent location and clean, large rooms.

Satisfied customer, good customer service & facilities. Facilities available for me to cook my own food which is my preference. All good!

The room amenities are excellent, and more importantly, for the DC area, this hotel offers great value for money. The surrounding area is also very safe, and it's not too far from public transportation stops, including supermarkets – mostly within walking distance. The hotel front desk staff are very welcoming and friendly. You really get a taste of North American culture here, different from what...

The room is small, with bunk beds, and the hotel is averagely clean! There is a bar on the top floor. If you live on a high floor, you can hear the noise from the bar upstairs!

The room is too small, even they can't put a table. If you have a big luggage, then your life will be squezzed. TV was in the wall but with totally strange position you can't watch properly due to lack of distance. Hot water pot was centrally provided in the lobby level, but most of the time was empty that you have to beg to front office for refill; there is no kettle in room. Bed mattress is like...

Very good, early check-in, the lobby bar is very lively at night, very Moxy, there is also a gym, it feels great to work out with the view of snow, but the quilt is too thin and I would wake up from the cold.

Top welcome Departure at 1 p.m. instead of 11 a.m. thank you

Great hotel as you would expect from Moxy. Very nice bar. You get a free drink when you check in. Rooms are small but very nicely decorated.

Fantastic experience, the staff's excellent service makes me want to stay here again!

The hotel's location is good, and the room is spacious with a good-sized bathroom. The buffet food is good and convenient for breakfast.

It was very spacious and perfect for a family of 4. Nice location. The breakfast had a great spread, just kind of bland. The staff working the breakfast were the most attentive and helpful people I have met at any hotel. They helped find a table, picked up our plates, refilled things. It was amazing for a free hotel breakfast. I wish they had parking without a valet, but I understand the limitations

Great place to stay if you are in town for a couple of days. Breakfast was good and the fears about it being overcrowded were overplayed. Rooms clean and as expected. Reception area comfy and popular. Gym not bad. Location great.

This was one of the best stays I've had at a Hyatt with a family with 2 young children under 10. We booked 5 nights in a 2-queen bed room. Excellent location -- a few blocks to the national mall and multiple metro lines. My kids scootered everywhere and we went to lots of museums. The room was large and clean. The free breakfast had a lot of variety and was a hit daily. My daughter has celiac, and...

The Hyatt Place Washington DC/National Mall was a decent stay overall. The hotel was generally clean and the customer service was good. Check-in went smoothly, though we were accidentally double charged. Fortunately, the staff resolved it quickly and professionally. While the room wasn’t spotless, housekeeping made sure we had fresh towels and had the trash taken out regularly, which we appreciated...

Great location. Friendly welcoming staff. Clean spacious room with enough hangers and storage space. Indoor pool and fitness center 24/7. Bath and shower in the bathroom. Coffee machine. Mini fridge. No microwave. Im afraid of the air quality. The air vent are full of dust and the ceiling of the pool is rusted & molded. The room windows cant be opened. Very poor sound insulation. The person in the...

Clean, bright, spacious rooms. Friendly staff, unbeatable location steps from the metro and a 5 min walk from Walgreens, WaWa, or target. Pricey drinks and menu though so take advantage of the location and get out!

Great hotel with an excellent M Lounge and restaurant. Valet service is 50/50, the valet notification system is not consistent and may cause delays in having your vehicle ready. For $65 dollars a night, I would expect little to no delays and a valet request system that works.

My wife and I stayed here for the Christmas holiday in 2025. A female staff at the club lounge (M Lounge), named Kimberli, was very kind to us. She recommended drinks and food for us when we were a bit confused, and we had a great time talking about our families. Ms. Kimberli is so kind, gentle, beautiful, and polite, and we were so grateful for her help. Thanks to her, we were able to make wonderful...

I've stayed at this hotel multiple times over the last ten years. There service is phenomenal! From the doorman, front desk, and room service cleaners, this hotel staff always works hard to make this a great stay. With the Metro Center stop on the same block, this is a great location for a family or someone on business that needs to walk/metro to and from major sights and frequently visited POI.

Alcohol is not included in the lounge service; it is available at an additional cost. The room is comfortable, but please note that toothbrushes are not provided. I was given a lounge access key when I mentioned it was my birthday, which I appreciated. The welcome drink was nice.

The hotel located in the central area ,within walking distance from places of interest, the receptionist was kind but the light was too dim

Good. Location is bit far for walking distance to white house and other central attractions. But love the space of the room and staff behavior. Deff. come back again.

The hotel itself is actually pretty good. The room was clean and spacious, even though breakfast wasn't included. The location is excellent though, very close to the subway exit. However, there was a small incident: we were charged $22 after checking out, and we're still waiting for the hotel's response. Hopefully, we'll get a reasonable explanation.

The hotel's location is pretty good, close to the train and metro stations. It's very convenient with supermarkets, pharmacies, and coffee shops nearby. Getting downtown by metro is also easy. Unfortunately, the air conditioning is a bit noisy.

Everything is good. Clean，quiet，location is good and near to the subway station！

dirty comforters and found hair in the towels. staff are not friendly and approachable. location is great

The bed and couch were comfortable, and nobody used the couch as its expanded bed option, though so unsure of that comfort level. Staff were all friendly and willing to help if necessary. The only complaints were with the bathroom. There was no exhaust fan. The sink sprayed if you didn't turn it on slowly and easily. The shower was only partially enclosed, so water tended to spray out. The shower...

Stayed here for my first solo trip! Staff was great, easily extended my stay for a night and OJ at the front desk is actually so nice and remembered my name! Always felt so safe and taken care of. Room was sooooo comfy. Microwave and mini fridge in the room! Had the salmon from the restaurant and loved it. Will be staying here in the future when I’m back in DC.

So we booked via a third party portal and due to delays in flight we got there later than expected. Reception was very courteous and welcoming. The booking we had said breakfast was I vludee this was found to not be the case on site. But no one says that, you're left to find this out after the fact with the explanation being that the policy was changed in June/July. Moving on, the hotel is clean,...

The location. Polite friendly staff especially OJ,Dennis,Victoria and Darseaux.

Absolutely beautiful hotel, upscale, very clean and couldn't have better staff...they were all extremely professional, helpful, and friendly. The rooms are modern, and large. The hotel has parking for a fee, well worth it! The hotel is located in the heart of the city, close proximity to all attractions.

The Cambria Hotel Convention Center is an excellent choice if you're looking for a clean, comfortable and reasonably-priced hotel. This newer hotel is conveniently located near a grocery store, coffee shop and a metro station. The views of DC are also spectacular in select rooms (I've stayed here on a couple of occasions). There is also a nice restaurant/bar on the main level. Will definitely return...

The hotel was clean and comfortable, and the location was convenient. The front desk staff named Marina and other staffs were very friendly and helpful, which made my stay much more pleasant. The breakfast was very nive and abundant. I had a great experience overall.

The location is great, but the service was just average, unlike the Hyatt Place. Regarding parking, the website stated $50 USD per day, but upon arrival, the counter staff informed us it was $70 USD per day, which is more expensive. We asked about the price, and they agreed on $50 USD per day. If we hadn't asked, we would have wasted money. We were disappointed with the service; we expected it to be...

No water in room. Says they are pet friendly but didn’t have a water bowl for room- front desk pointed to the community water bowl in entrance. Water kept coming out hot in sink faucet - had to brush teeth with hot water

The room didn't have a bathtub. The room was big and seemed clean. I wish they'd give us more stuff. There wasn't even a bottle of water (wonder if that's how it is everywhere in the US?) The lights were kinda dim at night, and it could use some more. The breakfast was yummy! I love that there were convenient stores like Walgreens and CVS very close by, and they're open until 11 pm.

Since we were staying as a family of four, it was great that we could use the sofa bed. There were also great breakfast restaurants nearby, so we had a comfortable stay. However, the front desk staff were a little unfriendly.

The most part was ok location and parking sucks

This hotel is a perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Highly recommended

The hotel is in a great location and the room is very cozy. It is right outside the subway station, and you can walk to the Washington Monument and the White House in two steps. There is a McDonald's across the street, so you don't have to worry about food. But there are some big problems, that is, it is very close to the building next door, so there is no light, the room is very damp, and the street...

Besides no refrigerator, and kettle everything is good. Water machine in corridors and it’s okay. Bed sheeting was so nice and slept so good. Super convenient as the metro is next door, just few stations to the airport.

Very nice hotel, the room is small but clean and warm. There is a subway station downstairs of the hotel, 3 minutes walk to the White House, 10 minutes walk to the National Mall, there are many museums and memorials near the National Mall. You can travel on foot.

The room is small but has everything you need. The use of an environmentally friendly kettle is great. Free coffee and hot drinks are provided 24 hours a day, and WiFi is available. Erick at ftonl dest is kind and enthusiastic. This time I stayed in an executive suite for NT$8,200. Although I didn’t sleep well due to time and meeting pressure, I still feel very lucky and it’s great!

Very convenient location. The subway station is literally downstairs (I think it might even be in the same building). Rooms are a decent and clean. Free coffee is provided and also has a nice meeting room. Overall given the price and location, no complaints! Would def stay again.

Great service and attentiveness to guests! Awesome lounge with comfortable ambience!

I stayed in the Phoenix Hotel with my daughter and sister. The facilities in the hotel are really excellent and easy to walk from Union station. However, i found out that on the first day i came into the room,there was a lot of dust on the floor and small pieces of snacks. Moreover, during our stay we had to contact the staff at the front desk, some staff made me feel really upset about services. One...

Excellent hotel, convenient location, very clean and good service. Just lacking a simple breakfast offering to go with their very good coffee lounge facilities.

Good location if visiting the museums around national mall. The room is small, the bathroom is small too. It is an older building, but quite well maintained. Many reviews commented on the cleanliness so I set my expectation high, but I personally think they could do better. We had a nice stay, but next time we are visiting DC I may look for another place.

Very convenient location near Union station. The staff allowed us to check in earlier when the room was available. We booked a room for 4 persons but the room is very small. Like the hotel which offers various types of beverages at 2nd floor and free self laundry 24/7. The Dubliner cafe at the hotel offered welcome drink, which we used it when having breakfast there. The food was good and the prices...

Very friendly and helpful staff. If going to GWU, it’s basically on the campus.  🤝

The hotel boasts a convenient and quiet location. The room and bathroom were well-laid out, and the decor felt relatively new. My only complaint was the old and incredibly noisy window air conditioner unit. It made sleeping impossible and significantly disrupted my rest.

The room was very spacious, and the overall ambiance was lovely. The front desk staff were friendly and had an excellent service attitude. The entrance was particularly beautifully decorated, and they provided amenities like cups and plates for guests' convenience.

The room was nothing special, and the hotel lacked character.

The room was comfortable, and the bed was spacious.

The location is excellent, just steps away from the metro station. With direct access to the Silver, Blue, and Orange lines, getting around couldn't be easier. The hotel facilities are also quite new.

The hotel is dated, but I found it clean and I would stay here again. The location cannot be beat if you want to be close to all the sight of DC. I found the neighborhood safe and I walked around one night after dark. The hotel does need a serious update and if you’re looking for luxury, this is not the place. The staff were all great! I did find the staff at Harriett’s (attached restaurant) a little...

Very old rooms, Bathroom door does not work, dirty beds, no coffee machines, no microwave, WI-FI does not work inside the room. Stay away from this hotel

Hotel was dated, as everyone has noted, but the bed was clean and comfortable. I probably wouldn’t have stayed here with young children because the carpet was kinda gross and the outlets- let’s just say I didn’t use a hair dryer out of fear it would blow a fuse, but my 18 y/o daughter and I were attending a show at The Warner Theater, which is directly across the street and the safety of the closeness...

Ok. You have to consider why you’re looking at hotels in this price range. If you’re looking for location, look no further! It’s very close to many of the local sights. Whitehouse, Washington monument, National Mall, Constitution Avenue, National Archives, Fords Theatre and others all within walking distance. It’s firmly down town so you’ve got varied restaurant and shopping options. However, it...

Location, Location, location This is a very old hotel that has never been closed for remodeling. The rooms are stark, small and often noisy, but clean and supply everything you need for a great visit. We walked everywhere, including museums, tours, and restaurants. The staff was a high point because they were friendly and tried to accommodate any need that they could. Don't be afraid to ask! It's definitely...

We have prepared before staying at this hotel, and maybe because we have no expectations at all , we can kinda accept the old room. Only soap are offered in the room, but with such great location and price, we have nothing to complain about. They offer to keep your luggage after you check out, which is what we need.

My experience was probably thrown off by the fact that the pull out bed was rough. Like sleeping with a bar in your back rough. The two beds in the bedroom were great, so it fit a family of 5 at a very reasonable price. The kitchen was not the best quality but it WAS a kitchen, so I was grateful for the ability to store food in a fridge and cook up a meal or two. The location was perfect, across from...

The apartment has a kitchen, and you can buy some groceries at the supermarket to prepare breakfast yourself. The hotel has a great location and is convenient for getting to all parts of Washington, D.C.

This hotel offers great value for money. The spaciousness makes it feel comfortable, and the small kitchen made it convenient to bring in outside food. It was relatively quiet during bedtime, and they even let me leave my luggage before check-in, which was nice. The location is also close to the subway station, and there are plenty of good cafes and restaurants within walking distance.

Great place to stay - huge rooms- great area- very friendly staff. Having a kitchenette was huge!

Excellent hotel. Great location. Across the street from a traders Joe and Papa John’s pizza. Bar next door and Catholic Church. Big room with kitchen and appliances

Spacious apartment in a great location and exceptional service.

Ate Baby and hotel team were very nice and accommodating. The check-in and out process is smooth. The overall stay is pleasant. Thanks to all the staff who assisted us.

The AC didn’t work the first two nights. Otherwise, the Generator is safe for a female traveler.

No AC for more than a week already

Really private hostel (they have curtain for the bed), good lobby space, far from metro but near bus station, many restaurants around there, price is a bit too expensive

Upon check-in, the key card for the room we were assigned didn't work. After finally getting a replacement room, we found the bedding was unclean. It took three or four trips to the front desk to resolve these issues. Honestly, unless you're a solo traveler on a very tight budget, I'd highly recommend staying at a more conventional hotel. The location is also a bit far from the subway. Otherwise, everything...

The location is good , not far from White house and Downtown.The room is large with four beds in room. Bathroom is clean.
