Washington Soapstone Valley Park Hotels

"This hotel is clean and the customer service was excellent!"

"Room was very cozy but you could tell it's slightly dated. Outlets were a bit finnicky: only 1 of 2 on the nightstand worked but they didn't fit most of our plugs anyway, the ones on the far wall were loose and didn't hold most of our plugs, only half of the ones on the desk worked even with the switch turned on. We made due with what we could. The staff was super sweet about it though. If y'all give them feedback during your stay, they're more than happy to accommodate so be vocal! I ended up speaking up too late and didn't really want to move rooms on our last night. I do wish they had a little downstairs market to spend my food and beverage credit. I could only use it during the restaurant hours which wasn't always the most convenient. At one point, I also asked for where the lobby bathroom was and was steered right into a private event (downstairs) so that was super awkward. We ended up using the one in the restaurant. My husband tried exploring the lobby to see if there was a downstairs market to spend our credit and staff seemed to stop him to ask if they could help so he didn't feel comfortable exploring much further because it made him feel like he wasn't allowed to go that direction. Maybe they were being overly helpful 😅 Love the convenience of the water dispensers though! This feature is so much more important than hotels realize. And the location is top notch. Super easy access to National Mall, Chinatown, etc. Overall, I would 100% be back."

"The hotel was very friendly, spacious and nicely lit room, great breakfast, nice location. Will stay there again! "

"The bar was friendly and comfortable and the food was great. I would have rated my stay excellent however on my third night the heat wasn’t working in my room. After changing my room TWICE the staff finally found a room with heat! In one of the rooms the thermostat read “82” degrees at which time the hostess tried convincing me to stay in by saying “she likes it that warm”…. Totally ridiculous thing to say to a paying guest!"

"We had pleasant stay at Normandy, good location! The room we got was a bit to hot and the AC didn’t seem to work, breakfast was super basic so don’t rely on this one for hours and hours but overall would definitely recommend thia place"

"This was an amazing experience. 10/10 everyone was lovely. "

"The night time receptionist was very rude. The room was dirty and the shower had residue and stains. The king bed had hairs and a lot of dirt on the sheets. The couch pullout bed had crumbs and hairs, as well as dirt on the sheets. "

"The good: Location, great staff, big fridge in room that is actually cold! Molton Brown toiletries. Plenty of power sockets built into bedside cabinets and lamps. The not so good: Small room for a deluxe king, felt like it was just a standard room. Dated and a little tired. Limited channels on tv. TV cabinet had broken doors. Shower head small and grubby, low pressure. Plastic disposable cups but no glasses or rigid plastic cups for drinks. Paper cups for coffee machine. Overall it was fine for the price but struggling to demonstrate its 4* status. Oddly called my room offering an upgrade 3 days into my 5 day stay. Nice offer but timed strangely. Would I go back, probably if I got it cheap enough as I used it as a base."

"We love the Dupont Circle Hotel. Wonderful, friendly and competent staff, terrific beds and a truly impressive breakfast. A cozy bar to meet friends with a talented bar tender in the most convenient part of the city for great restaurants of all stripes."
