Kimpton Hotel George, Washington

15 E St NW, Washington, DC 20001, USA (show on map)

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“The major chain hotels can be found within a mile of the Capitol, but a better option is the Hotel George, a Kimpton Hotel with a fun George Washington theme and animal- print robes. A stone’s throw from Union Station and the Capitol, it has the added bonus of a very decent restaurant, Bistro Bis, which also has a sexy bar.”

Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Washington, D.C.

Fodors review:

“You won’t forget whose town you’re in, with the George Washington motif throughout this fun and funky, recently renovated boutique hotel—including walls papered with his handwritten inaugural address and pop-art portraits in the lobby and halls.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Washington.

Central Location Steps from Capitol and Union Station

Great location close to the National Mall and walkable to more active and vibrant neighborhoods. The hotel room was super comfortable and the staff incredibly kind.

We had to switch rooms because the toilet in our first room wouldn’t flush.

The staff and location were awesome, bathroom huge, bed very comfy.

The current restaurant will be closing soon. We had a good breakfast there but since it will be replaced any further review seems pointless.

The only change would be to replace some the hall carpeting and painting - all seemed a little dated.

Nice stay and would go back -- with my own nightlight the next time.

The location, the great restaurant (which is closing soon), and the friendly staff. Very good reading lights all over the room. Lots of device plugs.

No hairdryer. No nightlight.

Very good

The facilities are ok. It was comfortable and clean. The room was large. I wish there had been a light on the table.between the beds and a place to charge my phone on the same table. (There was an outlet on the desk across the room.). We were not fans of the glass, barn door style of door for the bathroom. (Who thought it would be a good idea to make a full-length glass door for a bathroom? The glass was opaque, but still….) Where this place really shines is with their staff. Every single person provided exceptional service, well beyond what was expected. They were genuine and kind and really wanted to help. We would stay here again because of the staff (though the bathroom door would still be a”turn off”).

Fabulous

The front desk staff were efficient. I like to mention Davine, who made our stay most welcoming, not only to the hotel, but to the whole city.

The hotel didn't have a roof deck from which to view the surrounding areas. But then it wasn't that tall anyway.

We had a great stay , we felt lucky to be so close to all of the museums and monuments. We felt very safe in the area an

The location is amazing . Staffers were incredibly helpful and friendly . The on site restaurant had great service and delicious food.

Our only hiccup was our suv was too big for the garage- the valet manager helped us find a suitable option nearby .

Ok stay

I loved their decor, classy with quirky historic vibes. I especially loved the closeness to the Capital Building which we were able to take a nice night time walk to. Parking lot across the street is much cheaper than hotel. Room provides with 2 bottles of complimentary water which is great. Room was very clean. They allow dogs to stay which we loved since we travel with ours.

The hotel was not as family friendly as I expected, as I would have liked or what I am used to. For example, I didn't see any vending machines for late night snacks, especially traveling with kids I assume there should be at least one in a hotel especially since there are NO nearby stores open in the area for late snacks. And their restaurant closes early. Front desk has some random candy they sell but it's in the dark in the back, awkward, not welcoming for guests. Also, not enough easy to reach PLUGS to charge all our devices, especially with modern days when everyone needs to plug their phones and laptops when touring a city.

The George is definitely on my list when I visit again!

The location was great. I loved the decor of the room, and was very clean. Since I was by myself, safety was a huge concern to me. This hotel made me feel safe and secure. :) I also received a text to make sure the room was to my satisfaction or if there was anything I needed. That is a great customer service tactic!

I can't think of anything that I didn't like. I had a great stay.

This hotel has a few nice qualities but I feel like we should have stayed somewhere else.

The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The hotel was very nice and even the room was vintage and clean. It is close to the union city mall.

the hot water took a long time to come out and the heat didn’t work that great so the room was very cold the mechanic came and left 5 minutes later saying it was fixed and the heat still wasn’t much better.

Very enjoyable and relaxing.

The location of the hotel was absolutely perfect as it was super close to Union Station. The coffee available in the morning was quite nice and I loved how clean the room was. The staff were all very pleasant and the beds are super comfortable.

Nothing! All was great!

Great location, a beautiful boutique hotel with a restaurant and happy hour in the lobby with wine 5:00 to 6:00 everyday. Coffee to go in the morning. Nice spacious room and a bathtub and a shower and a microwave and a fridge. We were really set up nicely.

As a tea drinker, it's always a little challenging to feel seen at hotels. Could have used some hot water and real big coffee mugs. But honestly that's the only thing I can think of!

Not much staff to assist including at entrance during a cold snowy few days. On your own. Extra fees are ridiculous.

Cozy!

The entrance way set the tone. Loved the art throughout. Location and street view was great for us, it was quiet and away from the bustling streets but close enough to get amongst it when we were ready to venture out. Friendly and accomodating staff. Enjoyed the snack, coffee, breakfast, and travel perks we received with our package.

The 206 bathroom door was too heavy for me to slide back and forth, we didn't get room service the first day (I assume it was because we arrived at 6am in the morning), and the iron was leaking like a waterfall when I used the steam function.

Nice boutique hotel close to the Capitol

Smaller boutique hotel within walking distance of the Capitol and Mall. Friendly and helpful staff

Most rooms don’t have any kind of view since it’s a low rise surrounded by other buildings. The area around the hotel is full of government buildings so there’s little street activity and a good walk from most restaurants.
