My girlfriend and I stay in Hilton properties all the time, Doubletrees and Hampton Suites and Hilton Garden Inns (my girlfriend is a Diamond member). The Capital Hilton is somewhere in the middle of the pack as far as overall quality. First, let me give you the pluses. Our elegantly-decorated room on the Executive floor was large, with a very...

The location could not be better - Super easy walk to the Nat'l Portrait Gallery & The Nat'l Art and History Museums, the Mall/Monuments and the White House is just 2 blocks away. We even walked to the Kennedy Center. The Hotel & Bell staff are very friendly ... The staff in the North Gate Grill are especially efficient and... More

Stayed on short business trip to DC and cannot fault this hotel. Excellent service from front desk to lobby bar to bell desk and Hilton executive lounge. Not the largest rooms but well equipped, clean and comfortable. Excellent location on 16th St NW just a few blocks from Whitehouse and major Federal offices. Really incredible value for location and service... More

Loved, loved the location. Very clean, comfortable hotel. We had the valet park our car when we arrived for 3 nights and didn't pick it up until the day we were checking out. We did bus tours, walked the Tidal Basin, walked throughout the entire Capital Hill area and were delighted that we didn't even have to take a cab.... More

I'm a Hilton girl, what can I say? I had a terrific weekend rate and the hotel was super nice. The bellmen out front were just so personable and awesome. I just wish the executive lounge had been open for more than breakfast. You can walk to everything and 3 different metro line stops are all within a couple blocks. More

I paid $370/night for a standard room with a king sized bed but that price didn't include the fitness room, wireless Internet, or breakfast. I don't know about parking fees because I didn't have a car. The rooms were clean but the decor of the entire hotel felt dated, like things hadn't been updated or renovated in many years. The...
