The Woodley Park Guesthouse is a hidden gem right next to the Red Line and a strip of small restaurants. It is family-owned, has comfortable and quiet rooms, daily papers but no tv, and a great breakfast. You are literally minutes away from everything if you use the safe and clean Metro, and taxis are easily available on the adjacent... more

Just returned from a five night stay at the Woodley Park and let me tell you I was so impressed. We arrived early in the morning so our room was not ready, but they not only kept our bags, but put them in the room for us. They suggested some places close by to get some lunch (we tried three... more

I stayed here on a recent business trip and could not have been more satisfied. It was a gracious and comfortable respite from hectic days of work appointments. The innkeepers and staff are most accommodating. I had a good feeling from the time I made my reservations, when I was assured by Joe that I would have free Internet access... more

I just came back from a vacation in Washington, DC. A friend who lives in DC recommended that I stay at the Woodley Park Guest House. She said the location was close to a metrorail station and the neighborhood was safe to walk around in, even at night. She said that there were many places to eat in the area,... more

Morning time at the breakfast table was a delight-- we ejoyed tasty treats while sharing stories and gathering tips for our sightseeing adventures. Since we were not able to take in all... more

The Metro was down, everyone was out in the street unsuccessfully hailing... more

Our family stayed at this lovely guest house recently. The location is perfect, as the subway is practically across the street so you can get to all the DC sites easily. However, when you feel like relaxing at the end of the day - this is a great neighborhood to be in. Lot's of wonderful restaurants within walking distance as... more

This turned out to be a great choice. The welcome and service during our 5 night stay could not be faulted. Joe, Courtney and their staff were just great, with conversation and advice. There were also a lot of really nice books available about the area. The rooms were well equipped, well decorated, stylish and very clean. Simple breakfasts but... more
