Certainly not a luxury hotel, but basic comfortable, Reasonable, And good location. However, I just saw a news notice saying that the hotel has been bought and will be closing. A shame Since it is an affordable hotel.

This was a nice place to take a shower and sleep. I didn't need any more than that, and it served the purpose. It's not super fancy or anything like that, and the paint and fixtures show their age, but everything worked fine. It was very convenient to the Metro station and there were plenty of places to eat nearby. The desk clerks were courteous and helpful.

Hotel Harrington was in the middle if everything. Close to the metro. The hotel is very outdated, but we were just there to sleep. The beds were ok and the staff was friendly. Our group of 7 had an excellent time.

Our room was just what we needed, but the heating system in our room was either off or it was super hot in there. It would have been nice to have more electric outlets in the room. It provided a blow dryer for the room, but there wasn't an outlet in the bathroom to use it. Other then that I was satisfied with the room.

The property is very old and dated, but there is a certain aesthetic to that, with DC being a historic city, The Hotel / rooms feel antique / vintage. There was a TV and mini fridge in the Room, but much of the furniture was old and wooded, with some wood bits missing, so somewhat broken furniture. All of that aside, the price was fair for the location. But if you're thinking a romantic trip to DC, look elsewhere. If you need a cheap spot to stay in the heart of the capital, this spot is hard to beat.

The hotel was old and out dated. The water backed up in the shower. That being said, it was perfect walking distance, close to metro and bikes. Starbucks right there. The staff was very kind and helpful.

The hotel is old and has unique features. The old mail boxes and the hotel timeline on the wall were cool. The place was clean and quiet and everything worked. I don't need mints on pillows or a spa/gym when I am walking everywhere. It is central to a lot of great restaurants. I'd stay there again in a heartbeat.

We liked the proximity of the hotel to the sites we wanted to see and public transportation. The room was clean. The air conditioner seemed to blow cold air all the time. Anyone who is going to stay at this hotel needs to remember that they are staying in a 109-year-old building. This is not merely a place to stay but a historical experience.

Pros: The building has a fantastic location, with virtually everything one could wish to see within walking distance. The check in process was smooth, the staff friendly, and there's a lot of history to the hotel. The pub downstairs, Harry's, has some good food. We had a maintenance issue and they had someone up there to resolve it in less than a minute. Most importantly, it's super inexpensive. Cons: There's no parking. There's a parking garage below the hotel, but it's not for guests and does not offer overnight parking. Expect the next nearest garage to run you around $50 a night. There's a LOT of dust on any surface higher than 5 feet off the ground. Also, there's like no hot water. We had to let the tub run for a solid 10 minutes before it'd start to even get warm, and that would only last a minute or two.

It was like stepping back in time; the rooms were very large with plenty of head space. The bathroom was a little small but it did the job. Only concern there was a loose outlet cover by the door. Otherwise pretty good.
