Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“A less expensive and slightly less elegant but equally convenient option is the Liaison Capitol Hill, an Affinia Hotel, with 343 rooms and a seasonal rooftop deck and pool, an unusual feature for hotels at this price. Locals still flock to the four-year-old Art and Soul, run by Art Smith, best known as Oprah’s chef.”

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

Fodors review:

“DC’s cool side shows in this Capitol Hill hotel, from the sleek lobby to stylish rooms to swank rooftop bar and pool (complete with rentable cabanas).”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Washington.

Nice, comfortable stay

* Good location - 8-minute walk from Union Station * Very comfortable bed and pillows * Wi-Fi was decent (~10 Mbps download and upload) * AC works well * Free suitcase storage for pre-check in and post-check out * Free bean-to-cup coffee machine on each floor with 3 different types of beans and strengths * Good decor * Friendly staff

* Bathroom door doesn't seal, so there's not a lot of privacy * No bath, no hand-held shower head, and water pressure wasn't great * Soundproofing isn't great - I got woken up by doors slamming and people talking in the corridor * Windows don't open

Stay and facilities was much better than I expected. Staff was excellent, very friendly and helpful.

Bkfst was good but wish there were a few options to choose from (ate the same thing for 3 days). Rooms were clean & modern.

The lighting controls were confusing to all of us. Limited choices for bkfst and the only reason the location wasn’t ideal is because I was attending the Ausa conference at the convention center and getting across town in the morning was tough.

great location and clean room just feel we were overcharged

location

on check in staff was not very friendly. We did not like the room and had to pay extra for an upgrade for the very same type of room we received on a prior visit for an additional $35 per night

Would recommend to friends.

Room size was good for 4 people. Bathroom and shower was excellent. Storage OK. Double blinds at window good. Dinner on first night in bar area was very welcome. Checking in and out on computer easy. Asked for extra towel and delivered quickly. Coffee machine location. Lifts worked well and came quickly. Gym was a good space and kit well maintained. Location was great close to station and Capitol building.

Although hot water provided, there were no tea bags near to coffee.

Very good

It was very clean and the staff was helpful

I didn't like the parking. Garage was small and I had to pay. Everywhere that was parking we had to pay. Can't blame the hotel on that. I just didn't like the parking on that area.

The staff were lovely, very helpful. Nice shower!

I do think there is a big difference between a room with a view (what I booked) and a room with a window of a road (what I got)

It was good but definitely could use some improvements.

I liked the are. It was close to some of the attractions I wanted to visit. Loved the restaurant on the premise.

The comforter was not the cleanest. I didn’t like the fact that I had to pay for parking each and every time I left out.

We stayed at the labor day weekend having family room with access to the pool included. The pool was so crowded, that we could not use it. We were hoping to relax there. So if you make the reservation thinking that the pool will be available please take into account that it may not be the case.

Comfortable.

Clean with comfy beds. Location is walking distance to all the landmarks.

The elevators smelt quite bad sometimes like someone had urinated in them. Not sure why, it only seemed to be 2 of the 4 elevators.

Fabulous

Room was nice and clean. Adjustable bed was really cool. Great location for sightseeing. All within walking distance.

Coffee machine was broken for the majority of our stay, and when it was fixed, only had 1 option. Not the end of the world to be honest

I didn't like that the hotel doesn't have its own garage to allow in and out privileges...even for a nightly rate.

Nice LED's and pool but to business like

The colored LED lights really set off the room and my daughter loved the roof top pool! Everyone knew their job at front desk and had an answer for all my questions! The room was so clean, loved the extra thick mattress on bed, every time I got coffee in hall it was if they clean it after each guest. The coffee was a plus, very good brand of coffee!

The pool closed at 8pm and we couldn't take any of our snacks or drinks up there. Food could only be bought at the bar. The younger generations was working at pool and they all didn't go by rules. Sometimes I had to sign in, like I was stopped to sign 1st day then next time diff guy sitting flirting w girls and he looked at me funny when I was trying to sign in. It seemed like a business hotel rather than a family cozy hotel. I didn't see any kids during my stay. The parking is a bit ridiculous!!! $50 night plus the more you drive in and out during the day, the more your charged. 🤨 Even though the parking deck is owned by diff people, the hotel told me I take a chance if I were to park on street. So I had no choice but to use parking deck. I could've had money to stay another night if I didn't have to pay that much in parking!!! The restaurant was expensive for a small amount of food, but if you're a vegetarian and a health freak then you will like. Nothing on the menu for a 13 year old or that any kid would eat. The Mac and cheese my daughter ordered but it was not good and creamy. It took us forever to even get our drinks! The women that waited on us was not friendly at all! They need music and friendly people to liven up the dinning area! It was quite and boring! No where to sit down outside the hotel, no benches or chairs anywhere! We didn't like that! Then when my husband joined us he didn't feel relaxed after working all week, he was scared to touch anything, like he may break it or get it dirty. Lol. I agree it wasn't family cozy at all!

First visit in April was better. This visit was not as great.

Room was clean and spacious enough. Would have liked more towels and hooks in bathroom to hang fresh and used towels. Also would have liked a luggage rack in addition to the shelf rack. Also a bench under the tv would have added great storage option as well

Staff upon check in was not friendly or warm at all. However, other staff members were nice though. Love the water /ice machines on each floor. However our 5th floor Coffee machine was missing
