    The hotel is in a convenient location near the White House and Mall, with many dining options nearby. The staff was hit or miss, but some were very friendly. Although the rooms were standard, the USB ports and TV had issues. Despite some inconveniences, the overall experience was positive, especially with the friendly and accommodating staff.

    My recent stay at this hotel was enjoyable overall, thanks to the friendly staff, clean rooms, and close proximity to public transportation. However, the inconsistent wifi and occasional noise disturbances could be improved for a more comfortable experience.

    The hotel had character and charm, with convenient access to tourist spots. Though rooms were cozy, some noise from neighboring rooms was noticeable. Proximity to attractions outweighed minor inconveniences. Staff was friendly and location excellent for exploring the city on foot.

    Staying at this hotel was a pleasant experience overall. the staff, especially the receptionists, were welcoming and helpful, making me feel at home. Housekeeping was top-notch, with daily cleaning and attention to detail. the location is fantastic, centrally situated in Downtown and close to various attractions, making it convenient to explore the city. the room I stayed in was spacious and well-maintained, offering a comfortable stay. the 24-hour reception and friendly housekeeping staff added to the positive experience.

    Despite the enjoyable stay, there were a couple of areas that could be improved. the lack of microwaves in the rooms and only having an ice machine in the lobby was a bit inconvenient.

    The Architect in Washington offered great price-value-ratio on our road trip. Clean, safe, and spacious bathroom with stylish furniture. We'll definitely stay again. Despite small beds and loud ventilation, the shower pressure was a highlight. Good location, courteous staff, and decent amenities made for a comfortable stay.

    I chose this hotel for attending a council at the Washington Convention Center. The conveniences, including desks and irons/ironing boards, made my work much easier during my stay. The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating, and the location was perfect for my needs.

    The one service that I missed for my work was a more reliable and faster Wi-Fi connection in the room.

    The hotel's decor was charming, with elegant vintage touches and cozy sitting areas perfect for relaxing. The layout of the hotel was convenient for us seniors, with easy access to the main areas and a well-lit lobby. The historic architecture added a sense of nostalgia and warmth to our stay.

    Improved accessibility for seniors would be beneficial. Providing handrails in the bathrooms and ensuring the staff are trained in assisting older guests would make for an even better vacation.

    The Architect in Washington is ideally located for visiting key landmarks like the White House and Capitol, with plenty of dining options nearby. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, offering a good night's sleep. The staff are accommodating and helpful when it comes to storing luggage. While the stay was pleasant, the noise from road works at night was disruptive, prompting a relocation to the W. Club Hotel. The hotel lacks a lobby and windows that can be opened, with rooms on the smaller side. However, proximity to renowned attractions like the National Portrait Gallery and Lincoln Memorial, as well as relaxation areas and the elevator, add value to the overall experience, contributing to family bonding through exploration and leisure.

    During my recent business trip to Washington, my director chose the Architect Hotel for our accommodation. The property offered various recreational opportunities, including a well-equipped fitness center and a serene rooftop pool where I could relax and unwind after a long day of meetings. Additionally, the hotel's convenient location allowed easy access to nearby attractions and dining options, making it an ideal choice for business travelers like myself.

    We had to change rooms because of the flooding in our room.

    The location was epic, just a few blocks from the White House. We also hit up the cool bars in Dupont Circle and checked out the hip art galleries downtown. The rooms were basic but clean, and the staff was chill.

    Yo, we would've loved a more happening vibe in the hotel. Add a rooftop bar or a lounge with some sick beats, and it would've been lit!

    The spot was perfect, with the White House practically in your backyard. The room was cozy, with a neat bathroom sporting snazzy marble and tiles. The hotel didn't offer a full breakfast spread, but they sure know how to brew a top-notch cup of joe. The staff was fantastic, making the stay a breeze. Despite a touch of noisy AC, a nearby construction site wasn't the hotel's fault. I'd gladly book here again! ✨

    Despite some noise from the elevator, the high floor room had a great view. The location was convenient for the convention center and the room size was impressive. I enjoyed the newly renovated shower and was pleasantly surprised by the iron provided in the room. The pricing was reasonable, and basic amenities were all available, making for a comfortable stay.

    The location was fantastic, just a short walk from the White House, perfect for exploring with our children. The hotel provided cable TV in our room, with plenty of kids' channels to keep the little ones entertained during our downtime.

    My wife says that clearer signage to the kids' play area would have been helpful for families.

    After my stay at a hotel in Downtown DC, I found it super easy to explore places nearby. The rooms had all I needed, from comfy beds to free WiFi. Safety-wise, they got it all covered. It was so convenient, with friendly staff available 24/7. I enjoyed the area’s natural beauty and the easy access to the airport. Everything was just right for a simple getaway. And hey, who doesn't love a flat-screen TV in every room? So, thumbs up from this tech-savvy gamer and digital art enthusiast!

    The hotel had a dope location downtown near the Metro station and the room lighting was on point with plenty of power outlets. The night manager was legit and hooked me up with a ride to the airport. The vending machine could've been better, but there was a 7 Eleven close by for snacks. 💯

Plus, don't miss out on the trendy bites at Modern Market Eatery and the delectable treats at Nerds & Nibblers. The bustling foodie paradise is simply delicious. And the convenient location near the White House and museums? Total win.

    While the rooms may lack natural light and the building could use a facelift, the tasty bites and prime location more than make up for it.

The room itself was phenomenal, with a reasonable price, a clean and comfortable vibe. The 5th-floor room was neat, stylish, and flooded with natural light. The comfortable bed and lack of noise from neighbors made for a great night's sleep. Plus, the reception desk attendant was incredibly helpful and friendly, even printing my invoice and emailing it to me. a super positive experience in every aspect!
