Had a wonderful time with my daughter and grandkids. Great location to see all the sites. We were able to walk to most all the venues we visited. Would like to have toured the White House but we just loved our first visit and can't wait to come back again. We enjoyed our stay at the Capital Hilton. Missed the apple blossoms so will work on a later visit […] next time. Read more

Our getaway started with a 4 AM fire alarm/evacuation of the hotel on our first night. The room was on the small side for a family of four, the bathroom exhaust fan did not work. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful, Kenny from the valet service was great. The location of the hotel was perfect for our needs.

The concierge and the front desk were wonderful. The door men helpful and nice. The valet friendly and quick. Actually would have been perfect if not for the dirty panties my children found in the closet upon first arriving in the room.

Capital Hilton was a great place to stay, especially being so close to the Mall, White House and sites. One comment only--make WiFi free in the rooms, $13 for it? Ridiculous.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Great hotel close to major attractions. You need to pay extra if you want to use gym! This is unusual.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The first thing that we encountered was that the toilet seat was loose and each time you sat on it, you slide to the side and felt very insecure. We called the front desk and was told someone will be up to fix it. We stayed 3 nights and no one came. The shower curtain had mildew on it and I wrote to the housekeeping to replace or clean it. One bathroom […] light fixture was out and the make up mirror was broken. Wrote this down too for the housekeeping. The note was taken, so they knew of our concerns. It's funny how almost every hotel has a card for travelers to right down comments of their stay, but the very one where you have concerns, there was no card. This was very disappointing for a Hilton hotel. Read more

Perfect location with perfect service and accommodations!

Not going to make the same mistake again!

Hotel was clean; staff was courteous and helpful. Hotel was ideally suited for the national mall experience within three blocks of the white house and two blocks from the church the president attended. The Capital Hilton is nestled in the heart of this scenic city. Very close to public transport which is a must in the DC area.

The Capitol Hilton delivers all you would expect of a hotel in this class. All employees were very helpful, obliging and kind. The only disturbing thing was that free WiFi is only available at the lobby.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Great location just two blocks north of The White House. Definitely an old-style hotel but that's to be expected in historic D.C. Soundproofing isn't great, so the farther from the elevator the better. Fortunately we did not spend enough time in the hotel for this to be a bother. Could have used one more trash can for the vanity area. While the room […] rates are very competitive for the location (especially after a hotels.com coupon) be prepared to spend a pretty penny on valet parking and breakfast buffet. Read more

My family and I had a 0715 am appointment to tour the White House on 12/23/2011, so we took a chance and booked this hotel. Wow, we pleasantly surprised! You could see the White House from the front of the hotel.It was a 10-15 minute walk from hotel to White House. We weren't too thrilled with having to pay $42.00 to park our vehicle, but you have to […] just do it sometimes! From the valet attendants to the front desk, all were friendly. We were given a very nice corner room that was clean and well furnished. Nothing seemed worn as well. The hot water could have been a little hotter for our taste, though. The hotel restaurant does need to add a few things to their dinner menu if you have have teens. We ended up eating outside of the hotel for this reason. The concierge was really helpful with this . The next morning when we checked out, the concierge checked our suitcases for us as would be not leaving right away due to our tours( we did the U.S. Capitol as well) This was a big help to us. All in All , this is a very nice clean, safe hotel that I would highly recommend if you are visiting Washington, D.C. Read more

Amazing location for downtown sightseeing. Closest Metro stop is McPherson Square. Recent renovation accounted for nice interior. Bed comfort wasn't awesome. Bath fan was dirty. Service was par excellance.

My husband, son and I stayed at the Capital Hilton for an overnight weekend visit and couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. We had asked for a room with 2 queen beds but we didn't arrive to check in until well after check in time so they didn't have any queen beds left, but they upgraded us to an executive suite with 2 double beds and […] it was actually a better deal, so we were very happy. A very comfortable room and the staff could not have been nicer. Not to mention the breakfast buffet included in the cost of the room. A definite must for any visit to our nation's capital.

Everythis was great we had a nice room and experience at this hotel. The staff was helpful and polite the we truly professional.

Our overall experience was wonderful. Only negative was the drink prices at the hotel lounge. We stopped for drinks after the Nationals- Mets game & the bill was $150! But the hotel itself was great. Good locations for sight-seeing & to the Metro. Service was top notch & our room was beautiful, clean, comfortable & spacious. Our 14 year old grandson […] walked into our room & said "Wow, this is the nicest hotel room I have ever seen, I could live here". Thanks for a great stay & keep up the good job. Read more

The Capital Hilton is very close to the historic sites. The hotel is quiet and comfortable.

We had paid in advance, but a room was not "turned over" for us until after 9:30 pm. --An hour and a half wait! We were offered free internet and free breakfast for "our inconvenience." --But we were told when we made our reservation that those were included anyway. The staff in the dining room then told us the free breakfast didn't count for our children!! […] We were also not allowed late checkout despite the fact that we were told the night before that "lots of people must have checked out late!!!- Overall not a good experience- it was difficult with young children.to wait until after 9:30 to get our room.

It is good hotel; good location. Weekend rates are reasonable.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel was amazing and I would stay here every time. We didn't have to use parking which was expensive and this location was very accessible to 3 different metro stops. The hotel was one of the nicest I've ever stayed in as a typical budget traveler and I was so thrilled to have such a nice place to call home on the tail end of a long trip. (Small […] drawback - there isn't a pool!) Read more

If you want to stay in the city near the White House but within small distance of Dupont Circle, this is the place. Rooms are spacious and bathrooms are renovated with a super shower. Flat screen TV with a decent selection of channels. Plush towels. Service staff were friendly. Multiple window coverings guaranteed it was dark at night, despite surrounding […] buildings and street lights. Some street noise, but the windows seemed to shut most of it out. We didn't have a chance to try the restaurant or room service. We were on the 5th floor, but never seemed to wait long for an elevator. This hotel is a notch or two in price above the suburban hotels, but you save time and money from not having to travel into the city (plus we got a decent discount thru Hotels.com). Lots of good restaurants within 10 minutes walking distance. Area seemed to be very safe. Having usually stayed across the river in Va., we found this to be a pleasant change and perfect for all our in-city activities. Highly recommend it! Read more

great hotel a few blocks from the white house convenient to everything

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It is a nice stay at Capital Hilton. The only complain is the high price of valet parking (like every other hotel in DC).

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

My stay at the Capital Hilton was a pleasurable one. I requested a room with two double beds and was kindly upgraded to executive room with one sofa bed and one queen bed since the Deluxe Double Bed room wasn't available. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. I would certainly stay there again. The location is central to everything.

This hotel has everything we wanted plus a great location. The people were delightful and the room was more than we had expected. It was large, beautifully appointed and quiet. The duvet cover and bath accessories were all first class. Lots of pillows on the bed added to our comfort. We would stay here again and again as it's just steps away from everything […] we wanted to see. Thank you Capitol Hilton!! Read more

Unless you have an overabundance of money and you're trying to get rid of lots of it I would not stay here. As I earlier stated, the hotel is excellently located, but older and not as nice as the prices.

The Capital Hilton was a fabulous hotel! I got it for a great rate through hotels.com and was really pleased with the location (3 blocks from the White House). The only negative about the hotel, is that the walls are thin. I woke up in the middle of the night because the guy in the room next to us was having a coughing fit. Other than that, the hotel […] was fabulous; spacious rooms, super clean, very friendly staff. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to all!! Read more

My family and I stayed here for three days as part of a two stop vacation. It's in a great location for seeing the sights of DC. We used taxis as our main transportation. Typically we use public transit when we travel, but this time we wanted to get around quicker due to the short duration of our stay. It seemed the magic number was around $12 for taxi […] each trip, be it to Georgetown for dinner or the Smithsonian campus to see the museums. (If you go to Smithsonian start at the Castle and get the $19 family membership. You get 10% off most things you buy at ANY of the museums and cafe's and you're helping a great organization since all admissions are free!) At checkin the clerk didn't find my reservation and asked if I had a print out. Luckily I did and after speaking to the manager he put us in a GREAT room (suite is a better word!) on the 4th floor. I was worried that it wouldn't be one of the renovated rooms and it wasn't, BUT the room was perfectly clean and huge. It didn't have flat screen TV and updated ammenities but I would have settled for black and white TV in this gorgeous room. There was no reason to look out any of the windows of this room because the view was a small maintenance courtyard, but we didn't care. The staff was excellent and house keeping was immaculate. The concierge was very helpful, but don't take the only tour they recommend to see the sites. It isn't worth it at all. Taxis can get you to the same places a lot cheaper and in more comfort which is saying a lot. That's a review for another time. The food was good but very expensive in the hotel. Try to get breakfast included in your stay or it can cost you a lot. We ate breakfast in the hotel since I got a deal at hotels.com with it included and for dinner we went elsewhere. All in all a very good experience and one I would repeat in a heart beat. Read more

Hotel was in a good location within walking distance of the White House and tour/local buses. We had a room with two double beds which was spacious and well laid out..

We came to Washington DC for a couple of days sightseeing. This hotel was in the perfect location for that and it's promixity to the subway was also great.

A great location to visit all the sights. Metro station on the doorstep. an amazing breakfast. Great hotel but we got a very good deal because it was Labour Day weekend and Washington was quiet. Hotel was 5 star and could not fault it for anything.
