Nonetheless I enjoyed the hotel and may probably stay there in the future again.

Loved the hospitality of the staff and everyone who helped us. I loved the location of the hotel but I didn't love the size of the rooms, it was a bit short and tight for my wife and I who are both tall--me being 6'3 and my wife being 5'11.

The height and size of the rooms.

The Hip New Hotel in DC

No breakfasts offered, but a nice bakery is co-located on ground floor. Elevators are the fastest I have ever seen - never had to wait. Hotel is very social justice and environmentally conscious, hence it attracts a very "hip" and progressive crowd, which we love. The rooftop bar is a great space - alive, friendly, where the action is. The staff are the friendliest around. Location is perfect for DC.

Rooms could be a little larger.

Comfortable stay in a nicely furnished room, at a reasonable price.

Great location for where I needed to be. Comfortable bed, nicely decorated room, clean/modern bathroom. Especially liked the table and small loveseat combo. A good place to work. Plenty of storage space. Small refrigerator a plus. Good sized TV. Books on shelves and record player a nice touch. Food at bar/restaurant better than expected.

Water pressure at sink a little too high.

We had 30 dollars for breakfast included. If we went slightly over we were sometimes charged and sometimes not. This inconsistency was a bit annoying.

The Eaton is a gem in the middle of downtown. I will definitely be staying here again!

We traveled for the inauguration. The hotel's location allows easy access to downtown and Capitol Mall activities. The common lounge (Library room) was a cozy place to hang out. The onsite coffee shop was exceptional. The staff was very friendly and helpful on arrival and at departure.

Great, with little room for improvement and would stay again in the future if price was the same.

Excellent location and great room. Within walking distance of most of downtown D.C. and a six minute walk from two metro stations. The window opened and that was a plus. Relaxed lighting was nice.

Parking was unclear as was bringing up our luggage. Was fine once figured out. No complimentary breakfast. If you don’t like barking dogs keep in mind you may hear some as they are pet friendly, but it didn’t bother me.

My overall stay was a 9 out of 10

This hotel has a vintage feel to it and my room's temperature was cosy and not cold like most hotel rooms

My clean towel had hair strands on it that I had to pull off, it was kind of gross.

Excellent stay at the Eaton DC

Excellent location. They upgraded our rooms so we can have a connecting room with my son. Rooms are very quiet and beds are confortable. Lots of room to store our luggage and clothes. The restaurant is excellent. I liked the feel of the hotel and its political exhibits.

No coffee in rooms and the coffee in the lobby is a bad drip coffee. No breakfast but the coffee shop in the lobby is good but crowded.

Great stay

We had a wonderful stay! The rooms were not only very comfortable, but also had a unique touch with lovely vinyl records and a player, which made the atmosphere even more special. Celia, our hostess, was incredibly warm and welcoming, ensuring we felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Her hospitality truly made the experience memorable. We appreciate all the thoughtful details and can’t thank her enough for making our visit so enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Breakfast and food service was barely any good

Very good

Great location, walking distance to restaurants and many sights. Very unique and tasteful interior and wonderful choices of restaurants onsite. Bed was comfortable, and the room was spacious. The staff gave me an upgrade to a bigger room at the check in as the hotel wasn't busy which was a nice surprise. They also allowed us for a later checkout.

Amenities in the room were a little limited. For example, there was no kettle or coffee maker that I normally find in other hotels, or toiletary items. The hotel description says that the breakfast is included but it's actually a $15 voucher per guest that could be redeemed at their bakery. Their coffee starts at $4 so the voucher doesn't stretch very far.

Hotel with a nice vibe, recommended.

The hotel has a nice contemporary vibe with indeed a community feel to it. Room is simply nice; some mid century touches and space to move around. The best part I found to be the bed: exceptionally comfortable while still supportive. Good shower the (basic) record player is a nice touch, and there was a cloth steamer. Got to print in the co-workspace in the middle of the night, that was great. Friendly, helpfull staff.

The hotel itself was well insulated however two remarks on noise: had to fix the warped window fixings as not to let too much street noise in, and a loudish in-room heater (not something to use at night). Found the 300$ day-rate paid a bit steep for the room (maybe normal for being in Washington during a busy period, still seemingly better deals can be had when booking direct at the hotel).

The Eaton is a sweet alternative to larger chains, with sincerely helpful staff.

Fresh, modern decor, and a very welcoming staff. The room was well laid out, spotless, and a very comfortable space to relax in after a busy day in the city. I loved the location directly across from Planet Word and Franklin Park. Plenty of options nearby for coffee and dining.

Great location, nice facilities, perfect showers. The suites are great. Regular rooms are a little small but comfortable. Nice rooftop bar and beautiful little speakeasy bar.

Lighting could be better in the bedroom area, coffee/ tea maker would be great in the rooms but is provided downstairs. I like a bathrobe provided but they are not available here. Steamer instead of an iron was a nice touch.

Fabulous

This is a wonderful, gracious, atmospheric hotel with plenty of comfortable lobby rooms for meeting friends, sitting, reading and relaxing. The decor is eclectic and eye-catching, with many small seating areas, including one around a very appealing fireplace. The rooms are compact, but do not lack in comfort and graciousness. Each room has a record player and offers several enticing LPs for listening. The rooms also casually supply a few books on their shelves. My room had two recent Pulitzer prize winning novels, "The Sympathizer" and "Less". As with the common rooms in the hotel, nothing is nailed down. There is an aura of trust that makes one feel at home. This hotel is affiliated with hotels in other cities I visit. I will seek out these places as I felt I'd come into my own tribe staying here. Beautiful, eye-catching art, a trustful staff and a comfortable bed and bathroom is a trifecta.

I reserved my room through BOOKING.com and chose a room that included breakfast. I traveled with friends who booked directly with the hotel. Their bookings did not include breakfast and their reservation rates averaged $15 less per night than my reservation. This lovely hotel does not provide breakfast, continental or otherwise. What the hotel does provide is a voucher that entitles the holder to a SMALL cup of coffee or tea and a single muffin or Danish. The cafe has fresh fruit and yogurt cups as well as other enticing alternatives, but those choices come wrapped in plastic and priced at Starbuck prices. I felt completely scammed and angry that each morning I had my $15 coffee while my friends had fresh-brewed, delicious coffee from the hotel.

A real find in the midst of bland and corporate hotels!

The location is fantastic, close to everything you need. My room was plenty large enough (king) and comes with its own record player and books which are a lovely touch. The bathroom has all the amenities so you do not need to travel with them! I love the mission for the hotel, be socially and environmentally focussed. It’s a good reason to go back.

There was no formal place for breakfast, and the rooms do not have a coffee maker as standard. I hadn’t realised I could ask for one, so if you like coffee before 7am you need the machine!

A stylish and social retreat in D.C. with great amenities, lively events, and prime location

As a solo traveller, I loved the events hosted at Eaton DC, which made it easy to connect with others. The rooftop offered great views, and the location was perfect for accessing high rated venues and nearby attractions. My room had an artsy designed interior, with the bathroom being a standout—spacious and stocked with high-quality soap, shampoo, and conditioner. I also enjoyed the functional vinyl player, which added a unique touch to my stay.

While the room was a good size, the layout felt a bit awkward moving around the bed to access some practical spaces. And just to be picky... no welcome treats / card left in my room.

Thank you Eaton, for a one of a kind experience!

I was pleasantly impressed by the welcoming atmosphere from all staffs and members of Eaton’s community. To coin the saying, “ service with a smile 😊” For breakfast the tea and coffee were hot, nice and consistent every morning. The environment was clean with personal touch with my name in the tv with an itinerary of things to do. A safe, pleasant and inviting space for a wellness weekend. Thank you Eaton, you’re the BEST!

Individually wrapped packages pastries 🥮 would have had a nice finishing touch to the tea and coffee. No complaints! it was a beautiful and wonderful getaway weekend experience.

We had an overall great stay at the Eaton DC. Great location- about 10-20 minute walk to nearby restaurants, museums and sites. The facilities were clean and comfortable, and the staff were lovely and accommodating. The decor of the hotel was both chic and modern. The complimentary coffee each morning was well appreciated!

Unfortunately on two of the three nights we stayed, we woke up to loud yelling and fighting (both times past midnight). We weren’t sure if the people yelling were hotel guests or not (the first night there was a show on the rooftop bar, so maybe they came from the show), but the commotion seemed to be on our floor (the 5th floor, so not even that close to the rooftop). Either way it was pretty disruptive and disappointing.
