The Hotel Lombardy is nice place to stay. A different sort of feel. If you like old houses (we do) that have been modernized a bit this place is for you. The kitchen in the suite isn't really a kitchen. A fridge and a sink do not make a kitchen. But the suite was very clean and comfortable. The bar... more

This hotel is close to the subway, in a nice neighborhood and you can walk to the sight=seeing spots if you want. It is a friendly, older hotel with lots of charm and ambience. We really enjoyed staying here. Such a nice change from the modernistic chains. They even have an elevator operator - yes! a person and they were... more

From the moment we exited the cab, Hotel Lombardy and its staff made us feel like we were at home. The hotel has the final remaining manually operated elevators, complete with operator that whisks you to our floor. The room was spacious and well appointed with big fluffy duvets in the beds and a kitchenette and sitting room in every... more

PROS Rooms were very nice and boutique style was perfect. Location to visit the National Mall and surrounding area was great. Kitchenette in Rm 903 with decent refrigerator (just bigger than your average minibar) was very convenient. Desk with free wired internet (slow, but OK, free) CONS There is no safe box in the room The elevators were staffed with... more

Hotel Lombardy was pretty decent. The manual elevator was a little awkward, but how often do you really use it anyway? Our room was missing most of the soaps and shampoos when we arrived, and we had to request them at the front desk. We stayed in a King which was large enough for us and was on a corner... more

Great alternative to all-too-much-the-same modern hotels! more

Hotel Lombardy was the hotel I chose with my two adult children (stayed in a separate room) and I feel like we had a bargin. The elevator was interesting as it is another historical monument. We made use of going down the stairs but that is our style. We would have enjoyed it more if our bathroom was cleaner, but... more

The Hotel Lombardy was wonderful. We walked to Georgetown and took the Metro to all of DC. The rooms were spacious and the staff was so nice. The coolest thing is the historic elevator that the staff operate to get us up to our rooms. Very nice place to stay if you want to be close to it all, but... more

My husband and I went to Washington DC this summer and stayed at the Hotel Lombardy for a week. The hotel was better than I could've imagined! Very friendly staff and they were very accomodating throughout the entire week. The hotel was extremely clean and was located in great spot! We walked to the White House (just about 3 blocks... more
