I have stayed at this hotel three times, most recently in May 2013, and I do like it despite it being rather large and rather old. Most everything in the hotel has been updated except for the elevators. The rooms are nice sized and I had no complaints over the restaurant service or food. There is a very nice workout... More

Very Good location as it is just a block or two away from the white house and all the meuseums. There is a great cafe called Brown Bag and a few good eating joints in the area. But the rooms were very basic and not like a luxury hotel which was a huge disappointment.

Stayed two nights. The location is great. Very close to Mall, White House, NARA, DAR Constitution Mall and many key locations. Walking distance to Dupont Circle (long walk). Second room was ok; first was not the reserved non-smoking room and it took a while to sort that out - the first response was that sometimes people smoke in non-smoking rooms... More

We stayed for two nights in the Capital Hilton. The hotel is located in walking distance to the White House with good access to the subway network. Also we arrived quite early on Saturday morning our room was ready. The receptionist even offered us free breakfast in the lounge on our arrival date. Our room was very nice with a... More

Stayed there for a conference that I attended in DC. The location is what it is about. Very close to everything. The accomodations are nice however the housekeeping was below what I consider top of the line. There were hairs in the bathroom from the previous occupant. The cleanliness could use a bit of improvement. Other than that, I was... More

Great location. Walk to White House in 5 mins, and downtown DC is just around the corner. But the service and amenities is just average. The hotel doesn't offer bath foam. They take ages to answer a call when I had a query. Can also hear what's going on next door. Too so good service for the price you pay.

We stayed for 3 nights at the Capital Hilton on K street, 2 blocks form the White House. We liked the great location to walk down around the White House and the Washington monument. We felt relatively safe walking around at all times. The staff were all professional and courteous in our dealings with them. The rooms were average size... More

We are frequent Hilton guests, get to see a variety of their properties, and have come to learn that some of their properties are getting old. It's a nice old, for the most part. My hangup is a bathroom in which mold is found along the grout lines where the tub meets the wall. My other complaint is when the... More

My wife and I stayed in Washington for 4 days. We were able to get these accommodations rather affordable through American Airlines. The biggest plus for us is that it was conveniently located near two metro locations. (farragut North red line and McPhearson Blue line). This made it easy for us to see the sites. The hotel itself was adequate,... More

Arrived after a long trip up on the train from Charleston, efficient check in and then to our room a little disappointing in size and looking a little tired around the corners. Dinner is now served at the bar which is okay but a very bossy server, good pork chop inedible asparagus. Redeemed itself with a very good choice at... More
