Frommer's "Among D.C's stable of wonderful B&Bs, Swann House stands out." Full review
Concierge "A tiny jewel. The 12 rooms in this B&B all have period details and pleasant decor, each with a unique style—taste (and budget) will determine your choice."
Insight Guides "Heavy on the romance, this bed and breakfast in Dupont Circle is also a gorgeous 19th-century mansion."
Lonely Planet "A dozen rooms are peppered around an exquisite 1883 Romanesque mansion, all just set off enough from Dupont to be quiet, but close enough to the action for you to get raucous." Full review

A dozen rooms are peppered around an exquisite 1883 Romanesque mansion, all just set off enough from Dupont to be quiet, but close enough to the action for you to get raucous, if you so choose.
Travel + Leisure "A nip of sherry from a crystal tumbler in this house's aristocratic sitting room may make you feel like a guest in a very elegant private home—and so you are." Full review

In summer, cool off in the outdoor pool, private behind a trellised wall.
DK Eyewitness "Sometimes described as the best B&B in the city, this charming establishment provides modern conveniences – Wi-Fi, private baths, and cable TV – along with personal attention."
Zagat "Housed in a turreted mansion dating to 1883, this nonsmoking B&B features 12 individually decorated rooms and suites, all with private bathrooms."
Fodor's "You'll be hard-pressed to find a more charming inn or hosts more delightful than innkeeper Rick Verkler and his staff." Full review

"The four-pearl Swann House is a charming bed-and-breakfast in a quiet residential neighborhood near DuPont Circle." Full review
Time Out "The hallways aren’t cramped and the lighting is good throughout. The pleasant rooms, which vary in their color schemes, are romantic without being twee, and some have working fireplaces and jacuzzis." Full review

Lonely Planet "The place is good value, especially since weekly and monthly rates are available." Full review
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

"This three-and-a-half-pearl, 153-room hotel is located in the Capitol Hill area of Washington, just a five-minute walk from the Capitol Building and the Capitol South Metro station." Full review
Frommer's "This hotel has the distinction of being the only one in the city actually on the Hill, an unbeatable location...rooms are generally spacious, ranging in size from 320 to 510 square feet." Full review
