Everything good except the food.
Great location close to Union Station. Staff were great as well. Large clean rooms. I do recommend highly.
Great location
Quite pleased with this hotel and staff. The Wi-Fi was wonky at times but otherwise everything was bang on!
Checkin and checkout were very efficient
The hotel was in a very good location, walking distance from the Union Station, quiet, clean, roomy.
Excellent breakfast, cheerful staff. I would stay again next year.
Well located, lovely rooms, very clean
Excellent location - only 20min walk from National Mall, 5 min walk from Union Station.
Only issue was the Facility Fee of 22.9 US Dollars/day - have no idea what that was for.
No airport shuttle
Great hotel, great location just two blocks from capitol, great price
Chose this hotel based on the price and ended up having a wonderful stay. Location was perfect, food in the restaurant and bar was great, service top notch, and staff extremely accommodating and friendly. Definitely going to stay here again.

Excellent!!”
The location to all of the museums, capitol and White House was very good. The group had a wonderful time. The staff was very helpful to all of our questions and they always had a greeting when we went out or arrived back. The only reason I gave the facilities a satisfactory rating is that we never used the facilities (I assume the facilities referred to the dining room etc.) We were on tours all of the time. There was a comment I read where they said the room was small. I don't think so as my roommate was another woman and two women in one room need quite a bit of room. The bathroom was large and the shower had plenty of hot water. I guess the only "con" is that we could not figure out how to use the tablet which was in the room.

It’s a joke”
Let me start by saying - It’s 2018, a lot of hotels offer free wifi already. I can’t believe there are still some hotels that charges customers for wifi. Next, We came in a day after our expected arrival time, and we admitted that it was our mistake, we actually thought that we booked it within our travel period but we booked the room a day ahead, and a day less from our travel dates. So we booked another day and updated our booking with the front desk staff. They said everything was ok, but when we came back after a long day of exploring DC, our room was never cleaned - because the housekeeping was never updated and they thought we were checking out. So we said we have to rest and they need to clean after we leave, but even if it’s their fault, we still have to adjust to “housekeeping schedule”. And we tried the breakfast buffet because they offer 1 for 1 - they charged us for two, in the end they managed to get it together, but why all the hassle? The TV and the safe didn’t work too.

A fabulous hotel located just off the Capitol. The staff are the friendliest, most helpful, cheerful as can ever be. The housekeeping is excellent with linen and towels changed daily. Food in the restaurants is of a very high standard. The location is such that you can get to any of the sight seeing/ shopping places in minutes.

Pleasant hotel with a lovely atrium.”
Nice room, quick check in. Pleasant and polite front desk.
The only minus: the flimsy plastic glasses and only two per room. A hotel like this should spring for real glasses or at least heavier plastic.

Your wish is there command, got a taxi from union station it took longer to get in the taxi than the journey itself it is literally 2 mins walk away. The rooms are spacious and comfortable huge beds with large tv fridge and coffee/tea facilities in room. All attractions are within walking distance and all the staff are helpful and curtious.

Above average”
The hotel is close to Union Station. I didn't eat at the hotel so can't comment on the menu. No sit down eating places nearby unless you walk to Union Station which is only a 5-10 minute walk but I wouldn't do it at night - lots of homeless people in the area who seem mostly to have mental health issues but not aggressive. In fact the day I arrived there was a homeless man lying just outside the station who actually appeared to be dead. There were people attending to him but he was unresponsive and an ambulance was called. On that note, take earplugs because there is a FES station nearby with sirens going at all hours. A little off the beaten track so a bit far to walk to the Smithsonians which was on my agenda. My only complaint would be the excessive cost of wifi. Between US$10-20 per day plus tax probably!! A plus was free small bottles of water in the room each day. I have previously stayed at The Mayflower which is a little more central but much more expensive.

Wonderful hotel!”
This might be the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in! Lovely room with loads of special touches . . . spacious bathroom, great bath products, iPad greeting, and many more. After a long overseas flight, it was a great respite before hopping on the train at Union Station . . . only two blocks away.
Would love to return when I could stay longer!

Messy Arrangements ”
I have reserved the place with confirmation sent by the hotel. However, when I arrived, I have waited and waited for over 30 mins and was then told there was no room available. We kept on waiting for over an hour and lastly was shifted to another hotel at 0300 in the morning. The overall experience is bad. The lady at the front desk was very impolite and not helpful.

Would highly recommend! Best hotel yet”
Pros - The cleaning service is very good. We’re pretty neat people but it’s nice when you can tell the bathroom has been cleaned, the shower handle looks sparkly upon every return. The room service breakfast is divine and super convenient for those who like to sleep in and may miss breakfast outside the hotel. I love the tablet for searching for activities, ordering room service, and scheduling cleanings. It’s really a steal. The location is perfect. Uber rides never cost more than $14 and we went EVERYWHERE in DC. The staff is friendly. Overall it was the best hotel experience I’ve had. I plan to stay here again.
Cons - Absolutely none. You get a huge bang for your buck, in my opinion.

A hidden gem in the heart of the tourist attractions with excellent service!”
I live in the city and booked this hotel at the last minute due to renovations at my apartment. Initially, I only reserved it for the price, but I was surprised to find that the hotel was only a few blocks from the White House and it was in such a nice location! Upon check in, I spoke to the front desk representatives Alain and Simon Attaghba. They were so sweet and accommodating! When I told them that I was going through renovations at my apartment and was only going to stay a day (and was very tired), they made sure to make my day count by upgrading my room with a panoramic view! I even heard them speak to another customer and list all of the attractions in the local area that I didn't even know existed! And I've been in the area for years! There are so many restaurants and attractions within walking distance that I made sure to take advantage and became a tourist that evening! Alain and Simon were even sweet enough to follow up with me to make sure I enjoyed my room.

Wonderful hotel, staff, location and value”
I'm so pleased to have found this hotel. It's tough to find a good value in the Downtown area. The staff was warm, welcoming and efficient - always ready to help. The room was clean and beautiful and the bathroom offered the most well-organized shelving and a great shower that I think I've ever seen, even in much more expensive hotels. The bedding was comfortable, the temperature and fan controls were easy to operate, the room was quiet and the wi-fi was simple and free. Convenient walking distance to many great sightseeing locations and great restaurants - and close to the metro as well. I can't say enough good things about The Washington Court Hotel. I look forward to staying there again! My only suggestion for improvement would be to add some wattage to the lighting in the room. The bathroom was super bright - perfect. But the rest of the room was a bit too dark for reading and work. This is being very picky though - everything else was wonderful.
