“Enjoyed our stay...”

Doubletree Guest Suites Washington, DC

4 of 5 stars
Ladson, SC

This hotel is not far from the Metro (Foggy Bottom) and very near George Washington Univ. Medical Center. The staff were all polite and helpful. There is construction going on this summer, and the hotel's website does warn about it. So, if you don't mind a little construction, then you will be fine. The construction is needed to update the rooms which are a little worn. The Watergate complex is close by, and the Kennedy Center is within a short walking distance. In fact, we walked back to our hotel from the Lincoln Monument, and it took about 30 minutes or a little less. Would we stay here again? Sure.

“wonderful location for subway trip”

We cooked inside, and walked to the subway station every day. It was fun experience. There were four people in per room, and we open the doors, and made the living room a common area for meetings and hang out.

“Convenient and fabulous”

Doubletree Guest Suites Washington, DC

Jun 8, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

I took a small troop of Girl Scouts to this hotel (just four girls and two adults). Our room had two queen beds and a queen sofa bed.

The beds were very comfortable and the room was well appointed. We didn't hear any other guests at all when we were in our room. Towels were nice and thick and plentiful.

It was great to have a kitchen, but they were very stingy with the dishes, flatware and pots and the pans were a joke. We managed to cook most of our simple dinners (like boxed mac 'n cheese, spaghetti, grilled cheese and tomato soup) and all of our breakfasts, but would have liked to have had an oven and better, more plentiful pots/pans.

The kids loved the rooftop pool, and the staff was very accommodating. The pool was leaking to the pool room below, but rather than drain it and close it, they kept pumping the water - which we really appreciated. It would have been much easier for them to drain it.

The location of this property is incredible! It is a block and a half from the Foggy Bottom metro station, two to three blocks from Safeway at the Watergate, and about five block from Trader Joe's. The neighborhood is so quiet, especially for such a large city. I don't remember hearing one siren from the hotel the whole week.

We relied completely on public transportation, which was so convenient, so I don't know about parking.

I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

“Just right for us - we can't wait to come back”

Doubletree Guest Suites Washington, DC

Apr 7, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

After a long day sightseeing around DC and being so tired you can't believe it, knowing we were coming back to such a roomy and comfortable hotel was a great thing to look forward to.
We stayed here because my sister-in-law recommended it and we were very happy. First of all, if you are a family of five, you know how cramped 1 hotel room can be, well the spaciousness of the suite was great, plenty of room for all and the full kitchen came in handy too. Really nice neutrogena products in the bathroom, the beds were super comfy with high qualtiy linens and pillows. The location is excellent for sightseeing and access to DC's excellent subway system. Also, the neighborhood is very safe at all hours of the night, so you never felt scared walking around there.
The front dest help was really nice and my girls loved the warm chocolate chip cookies when we arrived. We are coming back to the Doubletree Guest Suites the minute the American History Museum reopens. Hopefully sometime this year. Thanks DGS for making our Easter trip to DC really fun for us all!

“Very close to GW University and Foggy Bottom Metro”

Doubletree Guest Suites Washington, DC

2 of 5 stars
West Lafayette IN
Apr 6, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

We stayed here for 2 nights for a visit to George Washington University. We were on the highest floor and the rooftop outdoor pool was above us and it leaked so the carpet in the hall was soaked. They did clean up the water, but the next day the carpet had a musty smell.

The room was clean and spacious, but the shower didn't have a lot of pressure and the beds were on the soft side. In general, the staff at the front desk was not overly friendly or helpful. I'm a Hilton Honors Gold VIP member and it is not unusual for a hotel to provide complimentary amenities (like room upgrade and bottled water and breakfast and free internet) that are above the required complimentary amenities, however, this hotel only provided the basic upgrade of either a free breakfast (Continental delivered to the room) or free internet.

The kitchen cupboards and the furniture was a bit worn. The kitchen included a hodge podge of dishes and flatware.

The best part was the location. It was no more than a 3-minute walk from the Foggy Bottom Metro (go up escalator, do a 180, and walk thru the plaza, cross 24th street, go to the far side of the block and take a left and the hotel is at the end of the block). It is also a short walk to the Kennedy Center and Watergate. It was a great location for visiting George Washington University. The area is quite safe as the GW police patrol the area.
