Many members of Congress live in the brick row houses near the Capitol complex. Across the street, the Supreme Court—the third branch of government—interprets the law.

The hotel is well situated walking to the Mall and Union Station. The restaurant was very good as was the wine selection. The cost was high but well worth it. Great service. The only thing I didn't like were the photographs of "the liaison" up and down the halls. The model was creepy looking. Even with the "the liaison" I plan to stay there again. Service […] was great and very clean. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Very nice hotel, would have liked to be in an area with more restaurants to walk to. Beware of fire station next door.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Fabulous Hotel with GREAT Location"
This hotel is a true gem. The bed was the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept in. We were in DC for a graduation and were able to walk everywhere. The staff was exceptional and really made our stay memorable.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"dogs?!"
I knew when I made my reservation that The Liason allowed pet lovers to share their hotel, but I never imagined a scenario like we experienced! Two hyperactive, mid-sized dogs moved into the room adjacent to ours and CLEARLY did NOT like being left behind by their owners, each time exploding into a cacophony unlike anything I've heard outside of a kennel! […] I asked the front desk to address this with the owners and was told "Yes, they said the dogs wouldn't like being left alone"..what! the owners knowing left behind a couple of howling, whining, barking dogs at 9:00 pm?! The staff assured me we weren't the only ones complaining and that the owners were contacted and "would return at their earliest convenience". No one from the staff came to investigate. Finally after several calls we were provided a 'new' room. I did receive a call from the manager the next morning offering "to make it right" but I cannot envision such a scenario. Its not about money, or credits, or breakfast-coupons-after-the-fact. Even overlooking the obvious maintenance issues not mentioned here, I don't WANT to stay or eat at your hotel again until you can demonstrate a more proactive management team, actually involved in guaranteeing a quality stay for all patrons, empowering their staff to take immediate action whenever needed ESPECIALLY in a case such as this. There are simply too many other options for the same money or less, readily available nearby Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great stay close to everything."
This hotel is right down from the Capital and the National Mall and Union Station. We were able to walk to just about every site in downtown DC. The hotel itself was great. Comfortable clean and quiet. The downstairs restaurant, while pricey, was excellant we had breakfast and a dinner there. A nice touch was the motion sensor light in the bathroom. […] No fumbling around for the light switch in the dark and really nice for our 8 year old son. We would recommend a stay here if you're looking for a great hotel close to the sites in DC.

Great place to stay clean, close to attractions and Union Station. The only thing I would like to see changed is free WIFI.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"The hotel was disappointing for the amount they ch"
Hotel lobby was small, always crowded. Hotel lobby was dark, and could not accommodate the number of people wanting to use it. Not enough receptionist to check you in, long lines to check in. Concierge was nice, but not nearly as well informed as they needed to be. Internet cost was per device in the hotel room. Bottle of water was $6 in the hotel room. […] I felt that the hotel was providing everything with a hefty price tag. No toiletries except a bar of soap. Room was very small The bed was comfortable as were the pillows. Art and Soul restaurant was very good The restaurant service was good as well. I preferred the Hyatt which is across the street. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Perfect for Romance and Family"
My boyfriend and I stayed here, and loved it. However, my family was also here, and they loved it too! All around, this place can't be beat. From the stellar concierge to the plush bedding, it is relaxing and lovely. I can't say enough.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very convenient location."
The charge for the Internet was ridiculous ($12/day per divice) when right across the street there is a Starbucks with free wifi...otherwise just great.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great staff"
The hotel was recently remodeled and it was very nice. It was in walking distance to the Capitol and Union stattion that connected you with everything. After a couple days we were comfortable riding the bus which stop a few steps from the door of the hotel. The staff was very friendly and attended to our every need promtly.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"NOT A HAPPY CAMPER"
I was not impressed with this hotel at all. I was very disapointed to find out that there was an extra fee to park, because this was not disclosed when I purchased the room. I also found long strands of wavy hair in the bed. I also thought it was outrageous to pay $6.00 for a bottle of water in the room! This is not a family friendly hotel. I would […] never go back nor recommend it. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Brilliant location"
Really could not fault this hotel. Great location for National Mall and all Smithsonian Museums and also very close to Downtown. Superb rooftop pool which was required in the heatwave we had whilst in D.C. Super service and very nice quality food. Would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay around the Capitol Hill area.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
hotel is within a couple blocks of the capitol and smithsonian. however those are the only plusses of this hotel. the air conditioning was poorly maintained and functioned poorly. there are no refrigerators in the rooms. there is no fan or functioning vent in the bathroom. the pillows smash down completely and become hard on the face and head over the […] course of the night. there are CONSPICUOUSLY no vending machines at all forcing you to have to eat down in the very expensive restaraunt down stairs. if you choose to eat in the hotel restaraunt during your stay bring a large food budget and be prepared for a very limited menu. there are also NO CONVENIENCES close by at all. there is ONE cafe across the street(the west wing cafe) which was very good, but mostly sandwiches. so you get tired of that quickly if your there for more than a couple of days. there is absolutely NOTHING close by. no restaraunts, no drug stores, no grocery stores, no shopping of any kind, nothing. all of this on top of the nightly prices i paid for a room makes this hotel EXCEPTIONALLY undesireable.

"Liason"
Hotel was renovating several floors, but was doing so carefully and quietly. We stayed on the 10th floor in the newly renovated rooms. Hotel was very nice, well kept, quite comfortable. Only about 3 blocks walking distance from the Capital, and about 20 minutes or so (walking leisurely) to the Natural History and Air/Space museums. The valet parking […] is very expensive, but there a number of parking garages within several blocks for half or less the rate, especially on the weekends. As far as food goes - the on site restaraunt and bar caters to the upscale crowd. There is a nice deli across the street, a little less than typical DC pricing at about $6-8 per sandwich, does not include drink or chips. Walk down D or E street about 7-9 blocks, and you'll find about 20 different options for food, including a McDonalds/Burger King. Just avoid the McDonalds at the Air and Space museum, it's about double the typical pricing! Very nice, would definitely stay here again, felt like we got a great deal at Hotels.com Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Hotel Liason - close to museum"
Cost of hotel was reasonable. Hotel was under renovation thus we heard constant noise from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. We like hard beds thus the matress was not to our liking. Staff was very friendly and accomodating. Hotel is close to Capitol and Smithsonian museums.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
From the moment we arrived, all the hotel staff we encountered were great. Doormen, front desk, room service, restaurant, bar and concierge, everyone is very helpful and friendly. The location is as good as it sounds, we walked everywhere and union station is right around the corner. We did not know until we arrived that there was construction going […] on, that was not a big deal. I do not know if our room was finished, under construction, or not yet begun: Carpets, beds and furniture were all in good condition and looked good. There was plastic over the smoke detector, the wallpaper in the bathroom was sagging and stapled on and work is needed around the window and tub. I would stay here again, I would recommend it to others, but I would hope they would take care of the problems that exist. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Liaison Capitol Hill - DC"
This is such a cool hotel! Location is great, only a couple blocks from the Union Station Metro. The bathrooms are very spacious, bed and linens very comfortable and the roof top pool is great. This is my second time staying there in a couple years and it keeps getting better. Feel very safe at night even as a single woman.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"The Liaison Hotel-Capito Hill"
This hotel is a great place to stay, convenient location. Rooftop pool and bar is wonderful. The hotel has terrific service and has a very upbeat vibe. The only downside is that it is supposed to be a smoke free hotel, but for a fee guests are allowed to smoke.-Our room did smell a bit smoky. When we returned home, I could smell smoke on my clothes […] that were unused in my suticase. Also, the rooms are a tad small, but they are very nicley done. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"What a great time!"
We ( 2 adults, 2 kids) recently went to Washington DC for a vacation. Our stay at the Liaison Hotel was great! The rooms were very clean and nice, the service was great, and the best part was the roof top pool which was open until 10pm. After a day of seeing all of the sites around DC it was great to be able to come back to the hotel and all swim to […] cool off and wind down. We would definitely recommend this hotel to others!

"+ & -"
+: Location Beds Room Service Food/expensive but excellent Pool -: Biggest disappointment -- pay for wireless, that's okay, but in a double room had to pay for wireless for 2 people separately. No good excuse for that in this day and age. Big disappointment was housekeeping. Late the day we arrived. Many waiting in lobby for rooms. Staff seen several […] times all week standing around, talking. And I think only beds were made and tub and sink swiped, maybe a vacuum. An ice bucket on the floor under a table was there the entire week. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
