Over the years we've become fans of small boutique inns and B&Bs. And its become my mission in life to find such places wherever we travel. The Embassy Circle Guest House ranks as highly as anything else we've ever stayed at, which includes wonderful places throughout France, Italy, and Canada. Situated on a quiet street about three blocks off of... More

We stayed 7 nights at this beautiful, convenient location in Dupont Circle. Laura and Raymond were wonderful hosts and we felt like we were staying with good friends. The accommodations were very nice and the bed was one of the most comfortable mattresses that we have ever slept on!! We were treated to a special delight on one of the... More

We couldn't of chosen a more luxurious and friendly accomodation in DC. From the minute we booked our room, we were treated with warmth and friendship. Laura (the host) and her team couldn't be more helpful and engaging. We especially enjoyed meeting the other guests over wine in the early evenings which was hosted by Laura. No one was a... More

We decided to stay in a guesthouse during a short stay in Washington DC, not just for the convenience but also as an opportunity to meet and interact with other travellers. This turned out to be the ideal place. Laura, Raymond and Angela could not have been more welcoming. Accommodation was very comfortable, recommendations about what to see and where... More

Chose this place through tripadvisor and it was so the right thing to do. The location was perfect - a shortish walk from the Metro and also from good shops and a selection of great restaurants. Run by a wonderful couple of Washington people The Embassy is well worth the price and we were treated royally. Nothing too much trouble... More

This visit was our first to Embassy Circle, and we will definitely return. Located near Dupont Circle, this bed and breakfast is in walking distance to great restaurants and DC sites. Laura and Raymond have beautifully restored an old embassy to a classy and comfortable inn. Our room was clean and tastefully decorated. We absolutely loved Laura and Raymond’s hospitality.... More

Just last night we were talking with friends about great holiday experiences and our stay at Embassy Circle came to mind. Almost 12 months on we won't forget 'wine time' where we gathered with Laura and Raymond and other... More

This was my fourth stay and it is worth flying 20 hours just to stay here. I was travelling with my daughter and stayed two single nights. The first night we had a beautiful king size room that was so huge we were incredibly comfortable. We arrived travel weary, but the wine was open and we felt immediately welcomed. We... More
