The Sofitel is well located near the White House and Mall. The decor is a little "off" and some elements make it feel like a refurbished Ramada; however, all-in-all a good place to stay. Service was very good. Rooms were comfortable. Lobby bar and restaurant are stylish and comfortable. more

This is a contemporary. modern hotel just a couple of blocks up from the White House, so perfect for sightseeing. It's an efficient business hotel, the rooms aren't that big but they are adequate and comfortable . I was upgraded to a corner room which was bigger than the normal rooms and it was light and airy. The front desk... more

Made a great first impression when we arrived by taxi and had our bags looked after and brought to the room. The room was quiet, modern, large and very well equipped. There was complementary coffee and tea every morning in the bar and the choice of breakfast in the street cafe or restaurant. Breakfast menu very comprehensive with lots of... more

Totally agree with the previous reviewS, on which we based the hotel selection. Excellent location - 2 blocks from Metro station McPhearson. Few blocks from the White House. Check in was smooth. We were initially given a spacious room on the 9th floor - which had the cream carpet that were stained as mentioned in previous review. We immediately phone... more

My husband and I had a wonderful stay on the 4th floor at the Sofitel with our 8 month old. The entire room gave us the feeling that it was newly refurnished and we weren't the thousandth people to roam the floors and sleep in the bed. Our room was exceptionally clean, which was important with a child who is... more

There is not much to add to the previous reviews. This is a fantastic hotel. Perfect in every way, including very pleasant and functional interior design. Excellent noise insulation, including insulation from bathroom noise even in your own room. Room service breakfast was great, with a 2 person order having enough for 3. One interesting anecdote to show how good... more

Got out of the cab in front of the hotel and we courteously greeted by the Doorman. The courteous and helpful staff didn't stop there. From the extremely helpful (and patient) people at the front desk, to room service personnel and housekeeping (who brought us a top sheet and extra pillows in only a few minutes after our request), everyone... more

I vascillated between the Mandarin Oriental and Sofitel for my trip to Washington, D.C., but ended up going with the Sofitel due to lukewarm TripAdvisor reviews of the MO. In truth -- I would give the Sofitel a 4.5, but since TripAdvisor does not allow half-ratings, I have rounded up to 5 because I feel it would be unfair to... more

This Hotel was great, I just wish we could have stayed longer. The staff were very professional and culturally diverse. This was a bonus. I wish I could have taken the bed home with us, it was so nice. The hotel is located just 5 minutes from the White House and 2 minutes from the subway. The subway is clean... more
