I would stay here again...

The Madison is a beautiful hotel. The rooms were nice, the beds were super comfy, and it's a good value. I got the room for 120-130/night via Hotwire and I thought it was a great deal. The rates on Orbitz / Expedia were < $200 and worthwhile as well.

The staff were super helpful and very friendly. Everything was clean and comfy. Street parking is available with a little bit of work.

The hotel is great, though it lacks certain comforts, such as a pool. As noted by other reviewers, the location is not the greatest. There are few restaurants / shops nearby, but there are some nice restaurants within walking distance 5+ blocks away or so. It's also not the most convenient location, it's between Dupont Circle and the White House, so it's a little bit far from everything, but still walkable to all the sights. A bike is perfect for this location.

It was my 1st visit to the nation's capital & my cousin was the one who booked this one, since she said this was a 4* hotel. The lobby was nice, classy, The room was on the small side. Staff was friendly. Location was good.

What a fantastic hotel. I was here for a conference and had the best time. The service from the front desk to the concierge, bellmen, housekeeping, all were great. They made my stay very welcome. I especially loved the massage chair in the room. The location was also great, near metro and Dupont circle. Overall I would say this is the best hotel I have ever stayed in DC and will only stay here in the future. The only minor negative I have was that there are no ice machines, but each day I called for ice and it was brought to my room in about 5 minutes.

Since I booked through Priceline, I got my hotel room at a huge discount ($125.00 per night!), so the fact that we had no coffee pot or hair dryer is really not that big of a deal. We did have this great full body massge chair that was so nice after a day of walking! The bar was cozy and fairly priced, but the best thing is the location, well within walking distance to the National Mall. The beds were great, the room was pretty clean and updated, and the staff was very nice, especially the door men/concierge. Had I paid full price for this hotel, I would have a little more complaining to do, but overall, it was a pretty good deal and I would stay there again for that price.
