I live in Washington, but stayed at this hotel because my husband had a work assignment that meant he had to stay at the hotel for several days, and I joined him. I haven't stayed in the rooms at other DC hotels, although I have gotten familiar with the restaurants/bars in some of them and have been in the rooms... More

This was my fifth visit to the Beacon in DC in three years. Each has been a good stay, with excellent staff, excellent rooms. This was the best stay, with the most comfortable room I have stayed in not only at the Beacon, but at any hotel for years. The layout was perfect for a travelling visitor. More

I don't think that I have ever had great customer service at any hotel that I have been to except the Beacon Hotel. Despite the rooms not being all that great, I came into the hotel lost and was welcomed in by Terecita, who greeted me with a smile. I laughed because I was sure that she was being extra... More

My husband and I stayed in mid-December. The room we stayed in was clean and classy. Was happy with the staff. However, the noise in the hallways was unacceptable. I also wasn't happy with Wi Fi Internet charges. Most hotels these days offer free internet. There is no complimentary coffee in the mornings either.The manager did give me a credit... More

I think one's experience at the Beacon depends on what you are looking for and your travel experience. The Beacon is reasonably priced for D.C. and while it is not luxurious, it is nice. The staff is very friendly and professional. Housekeeping was excellent and the room was always made up when we returned in the afternoon. The location is... More

I stayed in DC for one night during Christmas week and landed in the Beacon by Dupont Circle. I was very pleased with the accommodations. The right is a studio with kitchen in the the heart of the upscale Dupont Circle area. The facility is a boutique hotel with a European touch. The staff was excellent and very accommodating. The...

Stayed here during New Years Eve. The location was great since we planned to hang out on Conn. Ave NW for NYE. Staff was extremely nice and seemed to have everything under control. Awesome brunch! More

My wife and I wanted to bring in the New Year in DC and after checking into number of different hotels we found The Beacon Hotel to have the best rate. We had a great view of Washington DC from the seventh floor of our room. The room was clean, spacious and ready when we arrived, as they had promised.... More
