Checked into the Jefferson for a 3-day anniversary celebration. We had a premier King room, which was very comfortable, spotlessly clean and well-appointed. No bathtub, but the shower was great. As noted by others, there was a TV in our mirror, which we actually found quite handy. I ordered flowers for the anniversary and the hotel provided us with complimentary... More

Everything about this hotel is oriented around service, and it re-calibrated my idea of what true service and hospitality is. I was impressed with the knowledge, competency, and professionalism of the staff from the initial call to the hotel to check rooms to when I drove away after the stay. The Jefferson distinguishes itself from its peers with the little... More

A hotel that is all class in a nice part of DC and in walking and bike rental distance to everything. Exceptional service, clean rooms and that touch of class that makes your feel like a valued guest. Lots of options for meals nearby if you want to avoid the hotel facilities. I would stay again if the price was... More

After a very disappointing few days in an Upper West Side hotel we were absolutely delighted with the offering at this completely charming hotel. From the first experience with reception to the time 3 days later we could not fault any aspect. The room was extremely cosy and comfortable (without being too compact). The staff were very professional, courteous and... More

I'm not an expert on Washington D.C. but I'll boldly recommend this wonderful hotel to everyone. Well located between the White House and the DuPont Circle you can walk to everything. The hotel is elegant in all it aspects and our room, while smallish, was a quiet haven of luxury. Service was excellent and the bar is pretty special too.

We decided to check into the Jefferson for one night for a "staycation," and it was a great experience. The hotel's lobby is both stylish and intimate, and the nooks and crannies in the restaurant where we had the afternoon tea and in the library are delightful. The room is luxurious, comfortable, oozing of Federalist charm, but with all the... More

When the Hay Adams and WIllard were full up I went searching for an alternative. Booked a night at the Jefferson which was a fine choice. Well appointed lobby, excellent service, The room was nice but the furniture was far too large. The bathroom featured a giant tub with a TV whihc was a nice touch. Had a splendid quick... More

We stayed for 4 nights at the end of May as a treat to ourselves and were not disappointed! The room was lovely - clean, bright and a very comfortable bed. Having a TV in the bathroom mirror was a novelty and the Bose sound system was very good - it was lovely to come back from a budy day... More

We have stayed at several top rated hotels in DC and were planning a return visit to the Hay Adams which was our favorite. However, after reading reviews, we thought we would give The Jefferson a try because it was closer to our daughters apartment in DC and less expensive -A great decision! This hotel is relaxed and friendly with... More
