we booked our room via priceline and we were pleasantly surprised by how central the location was, it is literally two blocks from georgetown. We also upgraded to a suite for a reasonable upcharge. Our room was decent enough but looked and felt a little dated. The biggest problem came when the hot water quit working for roughly 18 hours... more

We enjoyed our stay at the Melrose Hotel, the staff was very attentive and helpful, the room (King Suite) was spacious, clean and comfortable. The location was great, close to all of the major attractions and Georgetown. We also recommend going to the Marvelous Market a short walk away for coffee, pastries, and other snacks. more

I had the opportunity to stay here for two days recently. Here is my quick synopsis: bellman - very helpful, very sincere Check in - front desk seemed annoyed that I was there and presented an interruption to his other duties. Room - King suite was spacious, decent amenities but nothing glamorous, for some reason I was expecting a lot... more

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your recent stay. We have already addressed your comments with the individual departments, but have focused on the mediocre reception you received from the Front Desk half of the time. This is not typical, expected or acceptable from our Front Desk staff. Again we thank you for your comments, it honestly is the...

We got an extremely cheap deal on The Melrose on a travel site and weren't sure what we'd find. We found a very comfortable, spacious room, excellent location and a very warm welcome from the friendly and helpful staff. It was an easy walk to Georgetown, or in the other direction to the White House and museums (we like to... more

My SO and I stayed in an executive king suite on the 6th floor. The suite takes advantage of the building corner, offering 600 sq ft. Both the living room and the bedroom overlooked Pennsylvania Ave. First, the good: The bed, couch, chairs, and carpets were comfortable. The staff was very helpful, going out of their way to find an... more

On December 23, I checked into the Melrose Hotel and placed my passport and a $4100 jewelry item in the hotel safe. I checked out in a hurry on December 24 and forgot to check the safe. When I called the hotel on December 26, they checked the safe, my items were no longer in it, and the items in... more

One week stay in Jan. 2010. Undivided attention from staff. Requested minor room maintenance and got very prompt resolution. Easy, short walk to the subway. Has a preferred customer rate if you ask for online reservations. more

At first glance this hotel looked quite nice, but up close it was run down & needs work. Having said that, the location was great and the staff was very friendly. The room was quiet. Breakfast was included and offered a nice selection, but would not be worth the $34 for 2 if it wasn't included. I was not impressed... more
