The American Guest House doesn't look like much from the outside, but the staff and rooms and warm and comfortable. The building is a circa 1900 historic rowhouse right between Woodley Park, Adams Morgan, and Dupont Circle. I walked to each easily during my stay. Rates are excellent. Breakfast cooked to order by Jonathan, a cute French man with great... more

This was a new experience for me. Turning up to a "hotel" with a keycode to get in and no staff to meet until the next morning. From the outside it did not look much but you won't be disappointed with the rooms once inside. I had a small room classified for one person (which included a double bed -... more

All guests are provided an entry code to get in the guesthouse and this facitates for late arrivals - therefore we do not charge a late arrival fee.

We stayed in room 403 for two nights and were absolutely happy with our choice of B&B and room. Room 403 is located on the top floor (no elevator), very spacious and quiet (windows face the court yard). Both the room and the bathroom were very clean and the bed is super comfortable. The breakfast was excellent! Good coffee, big... more

If you looking for a clean, quiet, elegant, convenient room in Washington DC, look no further. The owner was always available by phone, the staff was helpful and friendly, and the room was spotless, lovely, and quiet. Breakfast was ample and tea, coffee & cookies were available throughout the day. A computer with high speed Internet is available. And Du... more

The instructions provided with web reservations were correct & easy to understand. The room was more comfortable in reality than the picture on the website seemed to indicate. And it was nice to not be in a large hotel - it made my activities just that more convenient to get taxis or get around. Very central location for DC. The... more

The American Guest House is in a great location, within walking distance of Dupont circle (and two blocks from our son's appartment!). We came to visit and attend his graduation, so we didn't spend much time in the room. Nonetheless, it had one of the most comfortable beds we've ever found. Unfortunately, the rooms in the front (e.g. 302) are... more

The American Guest House was recommended by my daughter-in-law, who goes there on business. I was delighted to receive a discount for my off-season visit in March. The room was small, but perfect for one. You are living in a converted historic home that you share with others who enjoy this kind of travel. It's nice to have this kind... more

Lovely room, great location, delicious breakfast, very warm and helpful staff, very clean bathroom and spacious room/bed. What more could you ask for, especially compared to other hotels in DC that are much more expensive and dirty. The only issue was parking, but they recommend parking at a nearby location and the street parking works if you can find a... more

I stayed for two days at American Guest House. The room was excellent and we got exactly what we expected. A Metro station is a 10 minute walk from the location and and the buses pass right in front of the house. The breakfast is great and the people at charge during our stay are superb hosts. Tita and Jonathan:... more
