"After massive renovations in 2012, the Melrose emerged with a sleek, modern style that puts it back on par with some of DC's nicer hotels." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A modern building in a first-rate location at the heart of the city, the Melrose is well known for its refined luxury. The furnishings are contemporary but with classic influences."
Michelin Guide "The allure of this Foggy Bottom property is largely the oversized guest rooms bedecked in hues of yellow and blue and equipped with writing desks and marble baths."
Star Service "Thanks to the renovation, the Melrose has earned some serious brownie points with youthful commercial folk and FITs.

DK Eyewitness "This suites-only hotel was recreated from an apartment building, and the result is large spaces with kitchens. Near the Library of Congress, the US Capitol, and Eastern Market."
Michelin Guide "Nestled on a quiet residential street in the shadow of the Capitol, this hotel is well-situated for seeing sights on or near the Hill: the Capitol building is just two blocks away."
Star Service "This is a modest midrange hotel with a mix of above-average-size rooms, some with kitchenettes, and suites with kitchens." Full review

Avoid the ugly alley in back.
Gayot "At a block away, this is the closest hotel to the U.S. Capitol, and a Metro ride away from other monuments, museums and local attractions."
Fodor's "A great choice if you want to stay on the Hill and need some extra room to spread out." Full review
