Frommer's "The W wants to blow you away, and it doesn't mess around." Full review
Concierge "W imbued the former Hotel Washington... with its modern sensibilities but retained the 1917 Beaux Arts elements."
Fodor's "It's hard to get a better look at the White House than it is from the exclusive P.O.V. rooftop bar lounge."
DK Eyewitness "Located next to the White House, many of its rooms have superb views of the White House or the Capitol. Its exceptional service continues in a luxurious setting."
Star Service "In a 10-story Italian Renaissance building with beaux-arts trappings, this is a modern interpretation of the oldest hotel in town, appealing to everyone's inner hipster." Full review
BlackBook "Ye Olde Hotel Washington rises from the ashes with a glaring, tell-all "W" on its brow. Thoughtful redesign plays on former grandiosity with sly, tongue-in-cheek touch."
Zagat3.7
"A "high-class" historic hotel made "fresh" with a "chic", "sleek" design, this "trendy" venue pulls in a "younger" crowd with assets like a "beautiful" rooftop bar offering the "best view in town"."
Gayot "Situated on Fifteenth Street in Washington DC, the W is the closest hotel to the White House grounds."
Travel + Leisure "The W Washington, D.C. Hotel is the place to see the nation's capital." Full review
Fodor's "It's hip, sleek, very cool, and just steps from the White House." Full review

"This European boutique hotel has multilingual staff and an international vibe – you hear French and Spanish as often as English in its halls." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This hotel is decorated with imported fabrics, Oriental rugs, and original art. It is now pet friendly too. The restaurant is bistro-style."
Michelin Guide "Restored to reflect its original 1929 character, Hotel Lombardy is located just four blocks from the White House in the center of Washington's business district."
Star Service "Guests keen on nostalgia, including personalized service, will do best here." Full review
Gayot "The staff is dedicated to making every aspect of your stay comfortable, while the impressive carved-ceiling lobby harkens back to the building's 1929 origins."
BlackBook "Another notch in the Washington-wants-to-be-Europe belt. Style flirts between Hapsburg haughty and Italian naughty."
