Residence Inn Washington, DC Foggy Bottom

Brought my parents to experience DC for the first time and was pleasantly surprised with the experience we had. I’ve stayed at many similar price point hotels in DC and can confidently say this one surpassed all expectations. Clean hotel with a great breakfast! The breakfast staff especially were super nice and welcoming. I also loved that they had various infused water options across the front desk. Location was great as it was just a short drive away from the national mall. I would definitely come back here for future trips!

Was in easy walking distance to our weekend activities.

Very nice one night stay at this hotel. We were in DC to see a show at the Kennedy Center and wanted a walkable hotel. Residence Inn fulfilled that expectation plus more! Beautiful lobby with infused water available. Eric at the front desk was very nice and professional, even though there were quite a few guests waiting--he was very patient with everyone. Was able to check in early and the room 904 was spacious and clean (hallways have a nice scent!). Bed was very comfortable. Was able to walk to pick up a deli sandwich nearby and then later dinner at a nearby restaurant. Breakfast the next morning in the lobby was delicious--so many selections to choose and the breakfast staff was attentive to refilling foods and clearing dishes. Overall was a nice stay although the parking fee was a bit steep, but we couldn't find any available on street parking.

The location to George Washington Hospital was incredible. It was just a few steps away. And the staff was very nice and it really made the stay that much better. Everyone was very kind and smiling. It sure helped us when we visited our dad at the hospital. We were really grateful. The beds were fine and the pillows were excellent. And they served breakfast with waffles and eggs and bacon and milk and juice, among other items.

Breakfast. Good variety. Location.

Not an updated hotel.

Excellent location, just 2 minutes from Foggy Bottom metro giving direct train to Dulles and downtown DC. Both Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s are nearby. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare small meals. The included breakfast is surprisingly good with both hot and cold items, and decent coffee! Very good high-speed WiFi.

The bed itself was comfortable but the bedding was not good. Pillows are very soft with no support. The duvet is not put in a duvet cover, instead a light sheet is wrapped around it, which inevitably comes off during the night. This should really be changed for hygiene reasons. The heating was temperamental and stopped working a few times, but was fixed immediately. The heating is also very noisy.

I am a smoker. And understand no smoking in the rooms. We smoked outside and didn’t see an ashtray to use the first couple of times. We threw the cigarette butts out in the garbage in our room. After I left they took the butts out of the garbage took a picture and charged me for a smoking in the room fee. I called and left a message for a return call. No-one called me back. Bad customer service if you can’t even return the call.
