I spent 1 night at the Harrington on 9/16 and for the price and location right in the heart of DC, it cannot be beat. Sure it's a very old hotel, but I find that to be a big part of it's charm. The rooms are pretty small. My room (#316) had 2 twin beds, a tv, desk, nightstand, closet,... more

The Harrington is in a great location. We (wife and 6 year old) walked everywhere we went. There are plenty of restaurants and shops surrounding the hotel. The hotel is dated but maintained. Our room wasn't up to Ritz standards but then again I didn't expect that. It was clean for the few hours everyday we spent there. The bathroom... more

This hotel was considerably cheaper than others in the same area and it is close to all the major attractrions of Washington- White House, Lincoln Memorial etc. There are some pros and cons of course, the cons are that there is a weird smell when you enter the lobby, the room was very small, and it was two single beds,... more

First off - this hotel is in a great location - walking distance to all of the major attractions in DC. Also, just across the road from where all the major tours leave from - so very handy. The rooms are old (what you would expect from a hotel of this vintage) but our (and our friends) room was spotlessly... more

I don't understand why this hotel gets bad reviews...we loved it...we didn't expect a luxury hotel...it was totally clean, we had a family room which ended up as 3 connecting rooms ...perfect for travelling with teen agers...the shower was excellent and we had 3!!! TV, tea and coffee making...internet access...and the location is so wonderful when you are sight seeing... more

We were really impressed with the Harrington. We were given a huge 2 connected rooms, for our family group of mum, dad and 3 adult children. We were impressed with its comfort and cleanliness, and even though it was right opposite the lift, it was nice and quiet. Yes its basic but thats all we wanted as we spent most... more

I recently stayed at the Hotel Harrington after reading many raving reviews about the staff and location and "quirkiness." I'm sorry to say that I was very disappointed. I will admit that the location is impeccable, it could not have been better, but the positives end there. The room was dark and dirty. It didn't appear to be vacuumed and... more

It's a horrible experience, overpriced and there are many reasons to find a different hotel. These are just a few: 1. Parking is about half a mile away from the hotel (no kidding) 2. They boast in-room internet service and there was no signal in my room. I complained to the front desk and was connected to an I.T. Technichian... more

Five of us stayed in a queen/queen/single room in June. I had read a lot of reviews on different sites and wasn't sure what to expect, but we were all pleasantly surprised. The room was clean, the bathroom was small but everything worked (FANTASTIC water pressure in the shower!), AC was perfect and the staff was friendly and helpful. We... more
