The Donovan house has become our hotel of choice for any visits to the DC area. At this time, we've stayed there about a 1/2 dozen times. We've found it to be very consistent with cleanliness(very clean!), service(very friendly!), accommodations(comfortable!). In addition, it's very easy to find & in a great central location. Would highly recommend the hotel! The only... more

Our musical group stayed at the Donovan House for 2 nights. We had a party of 9. The rooms were excellent, beds comfortable, a very modern and cool bathroom, the folks at the check in were just great, we parked our car under the hotel, the guys up front always had useful suggestions, the rooms were cleaned, the room service... more

We stayed at the Donovan for a couple of nights starting on November 20th. I happen to prefer an ultra-modern, trendy decor, so as far as the decor was concerned I was quite happy. The "swirl" shower was interesting, but not clean in the crevices as I thought it should be and wasn't exactly practical. Bring your own toiletries as... more

My lasting impression of this hotel was that it was very pretentious & that they care more about image than they do about customer care. The hotel is modern, trendy & well situated within easy reach of everything that DC has to offer. The bedrooms are nicely designed, clean & spacious but this place really lets itself down with its... more

Location location location!! A simple rule in business and it applies to hotel locations as well hehe. I needed a hotel in the city of DC for a quick ride to a buddies party.

I'd stayed at Donovan House in March in a standard queen room, and was impressed, so I was happy to stay there again when I returned to DC in November, and I wasn't disappointed. I was upgraded to a corner king room, which was fantastic. The room was very big with a massive bed and a really good desk to... more

We stayed one night. Our bedroom was very small but well designed in general. Very quiet, a plus in DC. However, it had only one bedside table, with the only bedside lamp for reading. The alternative was a pair of very strong halogen lights shining on both occupants of the bed simultaneously. The white spiral shower looked sleek from the... more

I stayed at the Donovan House for a recent business trip. We stayed here and invited people to some meals and meetings. All was great. I love the minimalist modern decor. It is as if you took the movie 2001 and made it into a hotel. Very very cool. more
