Hamilton Hotel Washington DC
Our stay was really nice, the location is amazing! We were supposed to have received a room upgrade through our benefits but had a view of a brick wall. The property is really nice, especially around the holidays (they had everything decorated so beautifully). We could not eat onsite at the hotel ...

Homewood Suites by Hilton Washington DC Convention Center
It’s a great stay! If you get the suite facing the road , be prepared for the noise. Also our sofa bed doesn’t have any blanket with it. Breakfast was ok. Could have been better but cleanliness is great. Room is spacious.
