Lawmakers handle the nation’s business at the US Capitol, where Freedom peers across the land atop her perch on the rotunda. 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. Nearby, the restored Union Station is a transit terminal and dining hotspot.

"Pretty high priced"
In 5 days I only ate in the hotel once... very high priced and not a good selection. Charging for internet is so annoying. The location was close to the Capital; where I wanted to be, but the hotel is kind of old and the rooms were pretty small for a "high end" hotel. I would not stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Union station/ Capitol convenience"
Very friendly staff, but a malfunctioning room lock that the engineer was supposed to fix.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"I'd stay again"
With a winter visit, it would have been great to have robes in the room. House keeping services were so-so, but I'd stay again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Washington Court"
This was a great place to stay, we took the train so it was only 2 blocks from Union Station. There were local restaurants and really close to several museums and the Capital. The price was the best part - very reasonable for Washington. Very clean and the staff was friendly and very helpful. I would stay again and have suggested to family members for […] future trips.

"great hotel"
This hotel was a very nice place to stay that I would recommend to anyone. The hotel was excellent, very clean, the staff was friendly and the room was exceptional. The bed in the room may of well been the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on. The price for the rooms were great, however parking was $46. I chose to park at a meter for free across […] the street. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"good value at the capital"
The hotel was fine. The room was comfortable and spacious. The pleasant surprise was the restaurant. Although a bit pricey $67 for a late lunch for 2. It was quite tasty and the service was good. The room could have been cleaner, there was hair in the shower. Overall, we got a good rate making the hotel a good value. The downside is location for a weekend […] stay, there was very limited action within walking distance, it is more of a business district so be prepared to taxi or drive for shopping and restaurants.

"Pleasing but could improve."
Great location and walkable neighborhood. Metro and taxis available. Interior of room - outdated but works. Windows drafty- not good in the winter, so curtains had to be closed. Heater did not actually heat the room ... I think it was working about 75% of the time. Heater has poor location in the room and next to the door with a huge gap between door […] and floor. Had to seal with a towel to keep the heat in the room. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel and very good restaurant!"
Overall the stay was a pleasant surprise. Room was quite comfortable. The restaurant was excellent for my selection and far beyond expectations. Things here are a bit pricy, but pretty much the norm for DC. A light dinner for one and glass of wine run about $65 with tip so it is not cheap, but it is good.Genuine Expedia guest review
"the room is very big"
the room is very big and the hotel is near the capitalGenuine Expedia guest review
"The hotel should provide more information about it"
Before I arrived at the hotel I never was advised that the parking lot costs $46/day. The food was overpriced in the restaurant. Actually it was not enough for a baby. The room service was always excellent!!!Genuine Expedia guest review
It was excellent!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"New Years Eve"
Excellent hotel and got it on a great rate. Rooms were nice and clean. Love the fact that the elevators are away from the rooms. Very quiet and peaceful. My only complaint was the parking. $43 for in/out privileges is quite expensive. There is street parking but READ the signs, because they are extremely anxious to hand out tickets. Lol. Union Station […] is an option though, apprx 5 min walk. All in all, I enjoyed my stay and will definitely stay again :-) Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Worked well for us while visiting family that live on Capitol Hill. Will certainly look forward to a return visit.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Disappointing time at Washington Court Hotel"
The hotel had the fans so dirty my wife had allergies. The concierge had someone at our rom to clean it. Actually a superficial vacuum cleaning of the fans. The filters / grills were so dirty like they have not been cleaned in months, not days, not weeks. The concierge said the manager and the engineer would talk to us. Nobody did. Nobody ever showed […] up. I don't know who or what entity takes care of hotels in terms of assuring at least cleanness, but certainly if any, they did a very poor job. I expected Washington DC, a city where many people from all over the world travels everyday could have better standards. Washington Court Hotel is no longer in my list if I return to Washington. And I suggest Expedia to have someone looking at fans at hotels, I doubt it my room was the only room like that. And remember, poor quality air caused by dirty in the fans is a serious thing for healthy. Due to weather conditions windows are not opened for months, so it is essential that the air circulating is not bringing all the germs to people. Another thing. The bathroom was cold. So, you move from a warm place to a cold place, it was like the heater could not warm up the bathroom. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"close to the Congress"
I hope the free wifi in the hotel can be much better.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the freindly staff and bartender. We also loved the soft, comfy, clean bed and the bathroom. The only downside was getting a room with a window facing the inside of the buliding. I recommend you request a room with a window facing the outside. I enjoyed the hotel for the price, particularly just because of the bed and […] friendly bar/restaurant staff. They made my night. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Location,location,location"
Hotel staff was great. Like any big city location the room rate is the least of the expense. Parking is $45 per night. Meals, drinks, all good but expensive.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Good hotel, no hot water and a terrible clerk"
On the third day, the shower had no hot water. We called the front desk and after over two hours and five calls we hadn't had a solution or heard from the staff. We had to leave without showering and the person in the front desk did not seem to care. The day we checked out, the person in the front desk was much nicer and worried that we, again, did […] not have hot water. He was apologetic and had a very different attitude from the other clerk we spoke to the previous day. Other than this terrible service, the hotel was good. People in the restaurant were very nice as well as the valets. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Convenient to train station"
Our family (three adults) stayed here one night in Deecember 2012. We chose this hotel in order to be close to Union Station for an early morning departure. The room was very serviceable.Genuine Expedia guest review

Amazing experience, great location, staff super friendly.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Amazing overnight experience"
It was extremely pleasant to find out that the hotel in general and the room are in such good conditions with a low room rate. The location is great: right on the street behind Capitol Hill. Good parking service. The room is fabulous - not very big but with all black, white and neutral colors it seems larger than it is. Modern decoration and the cleanliness […] of the hotel and the room are very satisfying. Bed is comfortable. Bathroom is spacious. The only drawback is that the volume of water coming out of shower head is a little small. The bath tub could be updated too. Parking is expensive - $46 for overnight parking. But considering its location the cost is reasonable. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"The only place to stay!"
Very convenient location, two blocks from Capitol Hill, one block from Union Station and exceptionally friendly and helpful staff to assis with all your requirements!Genuine Expedia guest review
"A great deal for the money"
It's a decent hotel for the price. The room is good size. It's about 5 minutes walk to the Metro Station which can take you to all the popular places in DC. The only drawback is, since it's close to Union Station which is a major transportation hub, there were a few transients hanging around there. It can be intimidating for the ladies coming back to […] the hotel at night. Other than that, we were happy with our stay. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great hotel for a family to explore Washington DC"

"Plumbing issues"
I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. My only concern was about the plumbing. My first night after using the sink once it was clogged. Maintenance responded promptly but left and did close my door! I had to call maintenance again two hours later after realizing that my door was left open. After the sink was unclogged, the tub was making very strange gurgling […] noises the entire weekend.

"Great Place To Stay"
This hotel location ws ideal for anyone visiting D.C. for the local attractions. My fiance and I walked everywhere with little difficulty. This hotel offers a pull up cab service right to the front door. This hotel is very modern and up to date and I would definitly stay here again. The only downfall of the hotel is the high prices for parking, I would […] suggest to look into an alternative parking situation to save a few bucks. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Stunning hotel for a great price!"
Amazing hotel: nice lobby, clean and comfortable room, enjoyable bar. I didn't eat there, so I can't say anything about the restaurant nor the food. It was my first time in DC and if I go there again, I'll try to stay at Washington Court Hotel again. By the way, it's really close to Union Station and U.S. Capitol.Genuine Expedia guest review

"How a bad service can turn your visit very bad"
Very bad services at the restaurant. It was Thanksgiving and my family was just willing to receive a better courtesy and more warm service. It was totally on the contrary. The people were there and they are dis-satisfied to be there, including the manager. She also has a bad attitude. The rest of the service staff and the hotel was very good.Genuine Expedia guest review
