Experienced the mayflower hotel during a business trip after numerous coworkers and reviews recommended it. The king deluxe room turned out to be quite congested and had an issue as I read from others with the bedframe, sticking out and bumping into it often. The room I was assigned could’ve used a more detailed cleaning as there was numerous dark colored hair, left all over the bed floor and bathroom I found the lighting in the bathroom to be more dim then I prefer, the tub slowly drained and prices in the Edgar restaurant and bar did appear to be a little more on the high side. To my surprise, though if you asked for specials, that is when the staff would hand you an envelope with top-secret on it and enclosed would be a listing of daily/nightly specials for drinks and food. The front desk staff was very welcoming and helpful. I assume most stay at this hotel due to the convenience of having a Metro stop right within the building however, if that is not of interest, in my opinion, the hotel does not offer much more than the nostalgia and the fact that you can say you’ve stayed at the Mayflower Hotel. Neither which I cared for while on a business trip.…

We stayed at the Mayflower while my husband attended a conference. Our room (562) was spacious and well appointed. Unfortunately, I left my iPad in the room and only noticed its absence when we were on the plane heading to Florida. I called the hotel and was instructed to complete a form. I received the form by email. I immediately completed it and within 12 hours I had confirmation that the iPad had been found. The security officer who called me several times to assure me that the iPad would be on its way, Ariel Zubieta, could not have been kinder or more efficient.

Historic hotels are great. The Mayflower is one of them and the room at check in was perfectly lovely. The fact that it didn’t have a thermostat - it was literally removed from the wall — and the room was pretty chilly was a bit of a flaw. Seriously? All anyone had to do was check before check in and they would have figured this one out. In expect more from a luxury hotel — particularly this one. Disappointing..

We had a fabulous time. The staff are very polite and professional. Lovely suite very roomy. Concierge amazing! Enjoyed breakfast everyday at Edgar's. Prompt, delicious and friendly. Also had a nitecap at the bar there very good. Could not be happier with the stunning hotel. Walking distance to lots of things and felt very safe.

Room is small, and inadequately appointed. For the price paid, one would expect a much better experience. One step up from a Residence Inn, for the Lobby and restaurant alone. Hilton’s of the same caliber cost less and provide more, and other Marriott properties in-network provide far more for the cost.

This is an absolutely charming old hotel. The lobby area is very old school and welcoming. The restaurant is immediately off of the lobby. Plenty of space for meetings makes it a terrific place to host large conferences and events. Rooms are updated and good sized.

This was a very disappointing stay. My friend and I were in the city for a concert and chose to stay at The Mayflower. When we arrived, the restaurant and bar were closed from 2-4pm. We could not even order room service. No mini-bar in our room. There were no waters in our room. We couldn’t get a hold of a single person from the room phone. For this hotel to be part of the Autograph Collection, it certainly fell short. The person working at the front desk seemed very disinterested. The only good thing about our stay was the nice bellhop gentleman named Frank. I would not recommend staying at this hotel.

My wife and I were guests of the Mayflower Hotel in Washington D.C. from Sunday night (January 22nd)and we departed Thursday morning (January 26th). I tried to write a review of the hotel but I was unable to do so, as the hotel website's "REVIEW" page just showed up blank and would not accept any typed in word, ie. the page is disabled, keeping visitors from writing a comment. Below are our complaints of the hotel facilities: 1). We booked a suite on the 6th floor with a sitting room, a bedroom, and a bathroom. There are two room heaters, one in the bedroom and another in the sitting room. The heating system in both rooms blows a bit of warm hair all day and night. The fan noise is so loud, even though we set it in "low" for the fan, we still ended up with broken sleep. By morning, our mouths became totally dry and our nostrils had caked with dry blood. 2). Bathroom supply was minimal. Two small pieces of soap were provided, one for the bathtub, and one for the sink. They were to last throughout our stay of four nights. High above the tub were hung in a row, three bottles of liquid: body soap, hair shampoo, and body cream; they were all unreachable while sitting in the tub. There were no small convenience items typically placed on the counter in a 4 star hotel, e.g. tooth paste, small glass for rinsing our mouths after brushing our teeth. We brought a drinking glass from the coffee maker counter. 3). Food ordered from the hotel kitchen were no different from food delivered from outside restaurants. The food did not come in ceramic food plates and silver ware, instead food came in paper boxes with plastic eating utensils. It was delivered in a brown bag by the hotel staff who handed the bag over to us at the door and left. There was no table for eating, just small side tables next to the chairs. We ate out of the box while sitting in the chairs. 4). We heard from some attendees of the meeting being trapped in a malfunctioning elevator. They had to wait for the repair man to fix the elevator. Positive review: The House Cleaner was very helpful. My wife was still cold at night as the windows are not properly sealed that leaked outside cold air into the room. The House Cleaner arranged to have extra blanket added to our bed.…
