Donovan House- A Thompson Hotel”

Decor of the room was tastefully done.
Need body lotion in the room. Delivery fee of $3 for food seems a bit much.

The hotel is located in a superb location within walking distance to the sights of Washington DC e.g. The White house, Museums, Macys and about 6 to 7 blocks from Chinatown. The staffs - Asian receptionist and bellboys were friendly, polite and extremely helpful. I got a good deal per night through Agoda.

Hip and economical choice in heart of DC”

This was a very conveniently located and hip place to rest and recover from jet lag following a long trip to DC. Close to Metrorail, easy for Uber drivers to find, walking distance to both DuPont Circle and Chinatown. Clean, comfortable bed, and very friendly and helpful staff. Only downside is we had a small room with apparently no ventilation in bathroom, but that wasn’t a big issue and certainly doesn’t prevent a very high recommendation.

Unfortunate Horrible Experience with Checkin”

I had pre-paid the hotel via my card 5 days prior to arrival through Agoda, On arrival the hotel asked for 25 USD per night extra convenience fees plus a 100 USD per night deposit on incidentals. I did not have a problem with that even though it was not mentioned on the booking anywhere. My problem was that they refused to check me in saying that my card could not be verified, even though I had pre-paid. This was a 11:00 PM at night in washington and I had to after an hour of trying , find another hotel. Kudos to the receptionist who helped me throughout else this property was a real let down.

Great facilities. Great location. Wonderful rooms with unique modern features and upgrades. Some staff really excel here and are truly service oriented. A couple staff really need to learn what hospitality and making guests feel welcome really is. One in particular seems to not care about much. Other than that, a solid stay, a perfect choice! The pool and rooftop is truly a great selling point but the procedure to get you to that floor needs rethinking.
