Wonderful. Very safe feeling and convenient.

Location Price Size of hotel

No outdoor space No lounge other than dark (dingy) bar It would be nice to have place to sit other than room. For example in dinning space even if not serving or if just serving beverages like lemonade or coffee.

Very good

Comfy bed, friendly helpful staff. Good lighting in bathroom.

Difficulty opening room door due to it being very stiff. The taps in bathroom especially at sink, and shower head not able to be moved. Not having satellite tv. Kitchen area dull lighting and only basic coffee machine, a microwave would have been useful.

Delightful boutique Hotel

It’s so much fun to stay in a boutique hotel. It has such character. The staff were extremely friendly, warm and welcoming. I loved having snacks in the room and available for purchase. I needed some snacks after a long day of traveling and this was just so wonderful to enjoy some drinks and snacks in the room without having to call

I wasn’t able to get the TV to work, but I didn’t try very hard and I also didn’t call anybody because I just was doing something else. I just wanted it on for noise.

Great little hotel centrally located!

This a great little "funky" hotel. Quite old-fashioned in its decor. I felt like I was in a 30's movie. I believe that the hotel must have been apartments or studio apartments, as my room had a large bedroom that could have easily fit a sofa, a large desk, large dresser, small dressing and bathroom but quite adequate, and a separate kitchenette with eating area. The most important thig for me was the mattress ... AMAZING. I haven't slept that well in weeks. Sleep scores on FITBIT were 85 and above all week ... for me a rarity. If you are looking for a $ Seasons or the Ritz, this is NOT that kind of place. Just very sweet, easy, inexpensive! The Cafe for breakfast and dinner were not expensive and the food was delicious. I don't know why more people don't have dinner their. I do have two suggestions fo rthe Cafe .. the lighting and the music are not good! Too bright, too loud. The bar is really nice and comfy. You can eat in there as well. Drinks were great. Staff was really good. Kyle in the bar and Muhammad in the Cafe.

The price of the Tito's martini in the bar - at the bar - was $20. Definitely overpriced. The food in the bar was good - same kitchen - but the presentation was inconsistent with the Cafe. For instance, no bread served, th ecrembrulee int hecAfe had fruit and whipped creme garnee - but plain in the bar. And oddly, the fettuccine was egg noodles and not really fettuccine????

The best DC hotel and I've stayed at them all

I have stayed at the Lombardy a dozen or more times in the past few years and it never disappoints. It is an old-style apartment hotel with large rooms with multiple spaces, beautifully restored.

A touch of history, with a cozy touch, in a prime location.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was bigger then I expected. The bed was comfortable. Location was exactly where I needed for staging to reach all the events I had on my agenda. I felt safe and secure in the area. I will stay here again.

The shower/bathtub was small.

Excellent value, clean, with character, nicely renovated property. We will be back.

The room layout was generous, quiet and comfortable and clean in every corner. The water pressure is excellent. We appreciated the fridge, and water every day. The hotel is well located. The staff is helpful.

There should be a plug accessible on both sides of the bed. The restaurant should stock oat milk and something other than regular milk and make really good coffee.

Our stay was wonderful!

The location was great! The museums, monuments and even the white house weren’t more than a 20 minute walk. Also very close to the Metro. The hotel has a restaurant and we stopped in for dinner. Great idea! The seafood pasta was to die for and Mohamed was an amazing host!!

There wasn’t really any ventilation in the bathrooms.

Historic Hotel Lovers DC Hotel

The hotel was very unique and had an old hotel vibe which we loved. The staff was amazing and very helpful. The location is perfect for sightseeing. We used Uber to see museums and such. The lounge was very cool and the bartender was great.

My only complaint is the restaurant was closed on Saturday during the Valentine’s weekend. We asked the desk and he seemed very nonchalant and said they couldn’t get a server for the night.

Old world charm in an excellent spot for exploring D.C

Lovely old world charm, amazingly kind staff (sourced me a microwave), very good and safe location. Whole Foods just around the corner, checkout Western Market across the road, Founding Farmers for a nice meal. Excellent location, short 10-15min to the White House and great spot for Metro. Loved our stay.

The hotel is older and smaller but this wasnt a problem for us.

Great couples getaway close to everything!

Plush and very comfortable bedding, spacious suite, antique yet updated decor. Staff was amazing and friendly.

TVs are outdated and pixelated, electrical outlets are worn so plugs fall out from the wall. We had to ask for an extension cord as a result
