Top Southeast Hotel Reviews

Homewood Suites by Hilton Washington DC Capitol-Navy Yard

8/10 Good

"Check in was easy. Room was clean, pillows need replaced. They finally cleaned the room after 5 nights even thiugh it said every other day. Breakfast was just ok. Same thing every day. 6 to 9 everyday but if you want waffels better get there before 830 as they close the station and you will have tp settle for ego frozen waffels. Some people take,advantage of it and stock up for snacks through out the day from breakfast supplies. Also the hotel is right across the street from the metro station."

New carriage house in Capitol Hill, steps from Congressional Cemetery

10/10 Excellent

"House was very neat and organized just like its pictures. Patio parking is very tight but we did get a buick enclave to just fit.Hosts were quick to respond to a minor property issue. Great place to stay for 5 or less people. Short walk to the metro made touring the museums and monuments very easy.Would rent again."

AC Hotel by Marriott Washington DC Capitol Hill Navy Yard

10/10 Excellent

"This AC hotel is conveniently located to everything in Downtown DC. It's in a very walkable neighborhood and you can walk to virtually anything you want to see. Getting to it the first time is a bit awkward as the entrance for drivers is actually in an alley, but once you get the swing of it, it works. No microwaves in the rooms, but there is one on the hall next to the ice machine. Operating the shower was a bit tricky, but that's a minimal complaint. Nice and clean. Tile floors, so bring your slippers or socks. I'd stay there again."

1BR, 1BA - 2.5 miles to U.S. Capitol & National Mall

8/10 Good

"A great place for a short stay. I was in town for a conference and this location was only a short ride from a lot of D.C. sites and shops. The only thing that I couldnt get past was the amount of flies and gnats that I had to battle at the entrance where the room was located."
