This hotel is located very near the smithsonian buildings, just walk out the front of the building and go straight ahead and bear right and you will see the buildings and signs to guide you. Ask for an "outside" room if you want a balcony, otherwise you will get a view of the pool (which is located on the 12th... More

We booked L'Enfant Plaza Hotel in DC weeks ago and got email confirmation before our travel day. However, we were told there was no room available for us the night when we checked in at around 10:30pm after driving hours to DC with 2 seniors. There was nobody having the courtesy to call us before our arrival nor did we... More

Did not stay at the hotel but was attending a training across the hall from the bar. Bar staff was efficient and friendly enough, and kept bringing $3 Redhooks without a blink. Happy hour 3-7 5 days a week.

Hotel is located in a very nice position that allows to walk closely to the Mall and overall Smithsonians' castle and museums. Restaurant is quite good even if a bit expensive.

They made sure we got connecting rooms, came very quickly to fix the room safe and efficiently provided a cot on the second night. It is a great location,... More

I have stayed at this property a few times. It is a fine choice if you want a hotel that is easily accessible to the Metro ( it is possible to arrive in DC by train or plane and never see the light of day since the hotel is connected to the Metro). It is close enough to DC Museums... More

Good location for museums & government offices. Yet the extra charge is terrible. I made a long distance call using phone card so I suppose there won't be any fees incurred. But when I checked out the hotel, I saw an overwhelming bill on the phone calls. The front desk said it's service charge!!! They even charge me for unsuccessful... More
