Top Columbia Heights Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Washington DC/U.S. Capitol

10/10 Excellent

"It was a nice stay with friendly staff and conveniently located."

The Henley Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Picked this because reviews said it's a great stay for solo traveler. Was on business there for the next day Monday, already on Sunday. It's in the middle of town, by a church. It's nice to just walk around and I got some food which I took to my hotel room to eat while watching tv. They have a huge amount of channels. Location is walkable from metros and bus stops. I definitely will stay there again if on business for downtown DC. Staff I met (reception and cleaning lady) was very friendly. Makes you feel at home."

Hamilton Hotel Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"The front desk staff has an incredible gift for hospitality. Sabrina was so warm and welcoming to me and every guest. The location is good, the room and bathroom were a little tired - the owners could invest some money on the asset and take care of that front desk staff! They are what make the hotel great."
