Top Martin Luther King Jr. National Memorial Hotel Reviews

State Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"I would absolutely stay here again! I simply do not travel a lot, so there was a bit of a learning curve in getting around the space. There are two buildings that are connected, but not at all levels. From the side I was on, to reach the restaurant required going to the ground level, exiting the back of the building and walking across a short paved area into a small parking garage, and continuing straight ahead into a glass door that is part of the second building. The restaurant name is not on the exterior doors, so I wasn't sure I was in the right place and just wasted some time. I should have just asked the staff right away, but I assumed user error, lol. They were wonderful, and the entire building is very clean and well organized. It's still an older building and I've never been a fan of the old-building smell that many people appreciate, but that's D.C. in general. The bathroom was large and had plenty of counter space. Closet space was much more than I needed. Dresser was also large. I was traveling for work and the desk was ample for two monitors, too. I never found vending machines but didn't look too hard, so those conveniences were why I can't go all the way to 100% 5 stars, but I walked to where I needed to be and that's a great bonus!"

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay for the price, the location is great. The extra pillows were in a zippered bag in a drawer under the bed which we didn’t realize at first. The hotel has a great breakfast buffet which we should have added on to our stay. The bed was okay."

Arlo Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"Property was in a great location for what we wanted to do, close to Amtrak. Staff was kind and the hotel was clean."

The River Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The only thing I wasn’t clear about was parking but it worked out fine"

Hilton Washington DC Capitol Hill

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel is beautiful and clean centrally located to major DC attractions and the train station Staff extremely courteous and helpful. Bedding and rooms very clean, comfortable and spacious"

Club Quarters Hotel White House, Washington DC

8/10 Good

"The property was very clean and well appointed and very conveniently located. The main disappointment, though, was that there was super low water pressure. It was like trying to bath with a garden hose."

The Beacon at Embassy Row, WorldHotels Distinctive

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was clean, quiet, and very comfortable, and the location made it easy to get around. The staff were especially welcoming and helpful throughout our visit. I would happily stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient and relaxing place to stay."

Hotel Hive

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was great from arrival. They're very knowledgeable of the area and want to help you feel comfortable immediately. The free coffee and tea in the morning was a nice surprise. We also had a drink on the rooftop and enjoyed it. If I had to complain about anything, it would be the elevator. There's one very small elevator for the property and it runs slow. I realized I could take the stairs right to my room basically on the 2nd day so it wasn't a big deal but I know that can be a headache for some. I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a cute microhotel."
