Residence Inn Washington, DC/Foggy Bottom

We’ve been there before to go to the Kennedy Center. Location is perfect to walk to. The room was fine. On the night of the Kennedy Honors…a Sunday night at 10pm….our key didn’t work to get into the front door of the Hotel!!! We were knocking on the door…the intercom didn’t work and it was cold and scary to be alone at night in DC at the Hotel we paid for and not be able to get anyone to open the door. There was no one in the lobby Or front desk. We were in shock!!! This should NEVER EVER HAPPEN TO ANYONE!!!!! I feel we should be compensated for the horrible inconvenience and awful experience.

We traveled to Georgetown for a concert at the JFK Center and decided to spend the night at the Residence Inn Washington DC/Foggy Bottom. This hotel is in a convenient location - a quick drive to Georgetown, the Smithsonian, Capitol, Zoo - and walkable to the JFK Center and Washington Harbor. The hotel was comfortable, the staff was extremely nice and helpful, and the breakfast was decent. Onsite parking is very limited and is $60 per night, but they let us park there until the concert was over the next day.

Perfect neighborhood for sightseeing in DC. Every place we wanted to visit was walkable or close to metro. Nice restaurants, drug store, market nearby. Large suite. Smallish bathroom but normal for the age of the hotel. Very clean. Excellent breakfast buffet. Comfy bed. Priced ok for what you get and the location. Excellent customer service.

We had issues with our TV. Due to the tropical storm we had to stay in more than we expected. We asked for help 3 times. Once we did get some help but still had problems after that which they didn’t care about. Front desk staff rude and uninterested in customer service.

I had an enjoyable stay. I stayed here for my birthday and the staff gave me a card and a gift, which I thought that was very thoughtful. Everyone was nice and provided. Great recommendations! The breakfast actually wasn’t that bad like some free breakfast hotels. I recommend it.

The suite was spacious, clean, and well appointed. The area was super convenient for an evening at the Kennedy Center. The staff was very personable and helpful.

The rooms were large and comfortable with a kitchenette that was helpful to store and reheat restaurant leftovers. Also, the shower was nice with the toiletries needed for hair and body washing. The bed was also very comfortable with pillows that had just the right amount of firmness.
