    The Capital Hilton Downtown Washington D.C.

    A short guide to Downtown Washington D.C.

    Downtown DC is awash with culture. The Smithsonian Institution museum complex flanks the National Mall. The Washington Monument bisects the Mall, just south of the White House. Federal agency headquarters house bureaucrats of varying stripes. Moneyed and powerful lobbyists help create (and quash) laws from K Street. Chinatown and the Washington Convention Center lie east of downtown.

    We enjoyed the location of the hotel. There was some banging and drilling that we heard throughout the day and it sounded like they were doing some renovations. Unfortunately we were all awakened at 3:30 AM when someone pulled the fire alarm. There was no fire but the alarms kept going off for the next hour and we had to go down 8 flights of stairs […] to learn it was a false alarm and could return to our rooms. The breakfast was very nice and the staff at the hotel seemed very pleasant. They were very helpful calling cabs and handling the luggage. I don't believe that we would stay there again however because of the noise and the issue with the fire alarms. It really ruined our Anniversary getaway since we were so tired on the second day of our trip. Read more

    You will notice that the hotel rooms are small and dated, but you cannot beat the location (few blocks from the white house). The room was not as clean as we had hoped, but we were only there for one night. I would recommend this hotel for the price, but if you find a better deal and good location, then take it.

    Hotelli sijaitsi kohtuu hyvällä paikalla Valkoisen Talon lähellä. huone oli sopivan kokoinen ja siisti. Osittain "yllättäen" Aamiaisbuffetti kuului huoneemme hintaan ja se oli hyvä. Ainut negatiivinen oli että internetistä olisi pitänyt maksaa erikseen. Henkilökunta ystävällistä ja avuliasta, mutta niin varmaankin väki koko kaupungissa. Hintalaatusuhde […] hyvä, paikka hyvä, voi suositella. Erittäin positiivinen kokemus koko kaupunki. Read more
