The room was spacious with a full kitchenette, which was super convenient for meals. I didn't enjoy the slow Wi-Fi connection, which became frustrating at times. Having a CVS right next door was a nice touch for quick snacks. The parking was quite expensive at $48 per night with no valet option. Overall, the location is fantastic for exploring nearby attractions.

The State Plaza Hotel was a great find for me. Even though it's not within walking distance of my friend in Washington, the comfortable and well-furnished room, friendly staff, and convenient location near GWU and amenities made my stay enjoyable. The spacious room with a separate kitchen and dining area was a bonus, although the outdated gas stove was a bit tricky to use. The super clean room, helpful staff, and perfect location close to main attractions, Metro station, and other amenities made my stay pleasant. The bed was comfy, the bathroom well-equipped, and the staff went above and beyond to assist with any issues.

I chose this hotel for its proximity to George Washington University and the Kennedy Center, as I wanted to attend performances there. The room was spacious with a nice eat-in kitchen, and the bathroom linens were of high quality. The staff was helpful and the overall stay was comfortable. Additionally, the hotel is located close to a metro station, making it convenient to explore the city. I would recommend this hotel for those looking to experience the cultural offerings of Washington, D.C.

It was truly a very comfortable stay for the holidays, the hotel met expectations. The restaurant was small with very friendly staff here, I had excellent dishes. The staff was willing to help and really took care of me. The location was fantastic, just a short walk away from an us national memorial.

State Plaza exceeded expectations. the kitchenette was well-equipped and delightful. the vanity room outside the bathroom was a nice touch. the room size was perfect for comfort.
Breakfast pricing misleading. com rate compared to hotel's site.

The Italian strata at State Plaza's restaurant had me singing praises. The welcoming staff and convenient location near major attractions added a cherry on top. Beds? Like clouds.
We hoofed it so hard, we wished the metro stop snuggled right up to the hotel—but a quick stroll ain't bad.

The location in the business and financial district made meeting venues ideal for seamless and productive meetings. It was like being in the heart of a beehive, buzzing with important discussions and negotiations. The energy was infectious and made our own business meetings feel all the more impactful.
Additional fee not advertised.

A spacious room located near Lincoln's mausoleum.
- the terrible picture quality on TV. - low water pressure in the washbasin, it was difficult to wash hands. - little attractive view from the window on the wall of the adjacent building

Great central location for sightseeing with clean, spacious rooms. Friendly staff and comfortable beds. The room had extra amenities like a kitchenette. The restaurant served delicious food. Minor hiccups with room temperature and reception knowledge. A pleasant stay worth considering for your next visit.

Whenever I go to DC, I stay at State, I love it. Because of the location, because it has a kitchen and that makes it easier for me to prepare breakfast and dinner in a healthy way. The attentions, everyone is super attentive and helpful, especially Oscar and Wilfredo, they were too good to us. They really are the best.
The only thing I have to say, that never happened to me before, is that I had a new frying pan left, which I wanted to bring back to my country and when I wrote to the hotel to keep it, they told me that it was not there and I am sure that it was there. I would have liked them to call me themselves to guarantee that my object was available and that I could pick it up. But it was not! :(

Very spacious bed, friendly staff, very large space
You don't really feel at home, it lacks a bit of decoration, I would have liked a smaller but more cosy place...

I always return for the weekend. The staff helped me with local delivery. This place suits me perfectly with Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception, a bar/ lounge, fitness centre, and a kitchen. With express check-in/ -out and in-room breakfast, I have no regrets.

I enjoyed the convenience of the hotel's location near the train station, monuments, and shops. However, improvements could be made in terms of housekeeping entering rooms without knocking and the outdated room decor.
Drew
2023-09-13
The room was excellent, very clean and big. The bed was THE BEST during my 2-week trip; kitchen facilities were wonderful. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The location is amazing, close to major landmarks with a college atmosphere. The garden area provided relaxation. The White House, Lincoln Memorial, and more are nearby, enhancing family bonding. The only downside was the extra cost for parking.

The proximity of the monuments . The space of the room . The personnel service
The bathroom is too small and with the toilet inside.
Marcus

I stayed at the State Plaza Hotel only for transit during my travel, and I found the convenience of its location to be exceptional. Being just 10 km from the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, it made my journey seamless and stress-free. the hotel is merely 0.6 km from the Foggy Bottom-GWU, providing easy access to public transportation for exploring the city.
Although my transit experience at the State Plaza Hotel was generally positive, I did encounter some minor inconveniences. The presence of bed bugs in the room and a large roach in the bathtub was a disappointing discovery.
John

Enjoy your stay at the State Plaza Hotel. room was large and comfortable, friendly staff, breakfast was excellent. hotel was very well located, next to the main points of interest. We did everything on foot. good value for money.

room is spacious and kitchen area is welcome. Impeccable cleanliness
The hotel debited my account long before we arrived when I should have paid the bill at check out! In spite of my requests, no answer was given to me and I don't find it serious. I cancelled my second night.
Derek

I chose this hotel for a business conclave and found the Garden Café to be a perfect place to unwind after a day of meetings. The warm hospitality and exceptional service in the heart of Washington, DC, was truly impressive. The hotel's location within walking distance of Capitol Hill and the K Street business corridor was convenient for both work and leisure.
The only service I missed for my work was a dedicated business center for any last-minute printing or administrative needs.

location, positive attitude, price, all these excellent elements, would repeat stay in this hotel.
The rooms that I touch, a little old-fashioned, very old style, however very comfortable and spacious
Dorothy
2023-07-31
The room was super spacious and comfy, with a handy kitchenette for a chill vibe like home. Loved the location - within a stone's throw of big attractions and a bus stop right outside. The bed was cozy, and the shower was super relaxing, plus they gave free water bottles. Just a tiny whiff in the room, which could've been from the carpet - but overall, a sweet spot to crash in a prime spot! 🌟
Henry
2023-07-30
The bedroom is very large and looks like a mini apartment with a kitchen and dining area and a bathroom and dressing area.
I had to ask to change rooms after I had settled in because the door didn't close and opened systematically. I couldn't have the same standard of room (for that I had to change building)... Prices seem to vary significantly from one month to another. I have to come back in March and given the price of the room (3 times more expensive) I couldn't book this hotel.

State Plaza offers spacious rooms with a kitchen, complimentary water, and a convenient location for exploring monuments and museums on foot.
Room temperature issue resolved with fan.

The deluxe 2 Queens room at State Plaza Hotel was a game-changer for me. The roll-in shower and other accessibility features made me feel right at home. The spacious sitting area and the kitchen were a huge plus for me, and the king-sized bed was just pure luxury.
The bed shaker was a bit too intense for my liking.

This hotel was perfect for our sightseeing trip in Washington. It was conveniently located within walking distance of all the main attractions, such as the White House and the Lincoln Memorial. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with a large kitchenette where we could enjoy our private breakfasts. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that our room was ready for us early. We also appreciated the good quality coffee brewed with the machine provided in the kitchen, and there was even a Starbucks nearby for a quick caffeine fix.
No improvements needed, everything was great!

The State Plaza Hotel in Washington provided a fantastic stay with its spacious and elegant suites, offering a small suite with a lobby, bedroom, dressing room, bathroom. The full-equipped kitchen was a great convenience, especially when the room we initially booked wasn't available. The large and comfortable rooms made our stay truly enjoyable.
The only drawback I found with the State Plaza Hotel was its location. Although not a major issue, it's a slight inconvenience for those wanting to be within close walking distance to specific areas.

The spacious room at State Plaza Hotel was perfect for my meeting, and the restaurant service and food were top-notch.

The location was perfect for exploring the city, with key attractions within walking distance. the friendly staff made our stay enjoyable and were helpful with any questions we had. the comfortable and clean rooms provided a pleasant stay.
Limited parking options and high fees for valet parking were a downside. the bathroom in our room looked tired and in need of maintenance, with a shower that wasn't properly attached to the wall and a cracked sink.

The staff was incredibly helpful and lent me an umbrella and a metro pass. The food at the hotel restaurant was delicious and the room was always clean and stocked.

the front staff was friendly and held our rooms even though we arrived late at night. the room was clean, comfortable, and spacious, with a separate kitchen and powder room. the kitchenette had all the necessary facilities, including silverware and dishes. the location was unbeatable, within walking distance of popular attractions like the Kennedy Center and the monuments. a pleasant find that we would definitely stay at again.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was perfect for all the sightseeing I had planned. It was in a quiet area but still within a walkable distance to all the tourist activities. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a kitchen and a dressing area. The hotel staff were extremely kind and friendly, always making sure I had everything I needed. The housekeeping service was excellent, keeping my room clean and tidy. The hotel also offered a range of amenities such as a fitness center, a restaurant, and a bar/lounge area.

The room was spacious and clean, with a comfortable bed and a fully equipped kitchenette. the location was also convenient, with close proximity to major landmarks and a nearby metro station. Another advantage was the friendly and helpful staff, who provided excellent service throughout our stay.
We had a few issues during our stay. the air conditioning system in the suite did not adequately cool the hallway and bathroom, causing them to become uncomfortably warm.
Andrew
2023-04-10
During my stay, the hotel staff was incredibly friendly and always ready to assist with whatever I needed. The cleanliness of my room was impeccable, and the lady who cleaned it regularly went above and beyond by filling my ice bucket and keeping a lamp on for me. Plus, the location was super convenient, with many attractions within walking distance and a subway station nearby.
Nothing I didn't like to be fair.

I recently stayed at a hotel in D.C. for sightseeing. The location of this hotel was outstanding, with the National Mall and Georgetown within walking distance. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the amenities were great, including a well-designed bathroom and a spacious room with a compact kitchen. The hotel also had a free IT room for printing documents. it was clean, efficient, and felt like a comfortable apartment.

I absolutely loved my stay at State Plaza! The staff, room, and restaurant were amazing. The room was spacious, furnished like an apartment, and had a comforting bathroom. The view of the snow falling over Foggy Bottom was spectacular. The restaurant downstairs had delicious vegetarian chili and a house salad. The interior of the hotel was modern yet functional and the parking was excellent. The concept of the room felt like home, with comfortable beds and a fully equipped kitchen.
Would definitely recommend this hotel.

The State Plaza Hotel offered stunning views of the vibrant F Street and the serene garden from my room, providing a delightful backdrop for the price. The limited number of guests staying during my visit granted a sense of exclusivity, and I enjoyed a memorable interaction with the friendly staff at the Garden Cafe.
I experienced difficulty controlling the room temperature, as the heat seemed to trigger cool air instead.

My recent stay at this hotel was a pleasant experience. the staff here were exceptional and provided excellent customer service. the room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. the location of the hotel was perfect, just a stone's throw away from the White House and the Lincoln Memorial. I appreciated the convenience of being within walking distance to many attractions like the National Mall and various museums.
While my overall stay was delightful, I did encounter some noise from neighboring guests, which could be a bit disturbing at times. It would be great if the hotel could ensure quieter surroundings to enhance the guest experience.

Our recent stay was top-notch. The staff were super friendly, rooms comfy, and just a quick walk to downtown and parks. Sights were easily accessible by scooter, making it a breeze to tour the city. A garden area for relaxation and enjoyment of the outdoors was a nice touch. The air conditioner was a bit loud, but the overall experience was fantastic. Definitely coming back! 🌿

The hotel's location was excellent for sightseeing in the city, as it was within walking distance of the Mall and close to all the museums we wanted to visit. The neighborhood was safe and perfect for exploring on foot. Additionally, the staff was very friendly and helpful, accommodating our request to change rooms without any issue. The spacious and clean room provided a comfortable stay.
The lack of information in the room about nearby restaurants or places to get food and drinks was a downside. It would have been helpful to have more guidance on where to find food options, especially when the hotel's cafe was closed or unavailable on certain days.

I accidentally stumbled upon a charming eatery serving up a mix of classic and international flavors. I discovered a place where kids can pet goats and donkeys, a solemn wall of remembrance, and proximity to iconic monuments. The suite was top-notch with a spacious sitting area and a cozy dining space. The open-air semi-circle with triumphal arches was a sight to behold. a delightful stay perfect for family adventures and leisurely business trips. And yes, I may have indulged a bit too much at the breakfast buffet!

This place is conveniently located for all the sightseeing I had planned. The room was comfortable and always clean. It had great amenities like a kitchen with cookware and dining table. Plus, I loved the terrace outside where I could relax.
The staff were super unhelpful-literally every request I made was said to be impossible to fulfill as if I was asking for something absolutely out of the ordinary. Despite this, I would recommend this venue to anyone.

We loved the cozy and traditional vibe of the hotel, which provided a unique experience. The hotel had great facilities including a private bathroom option and a fridge. The staff were helpful and the breakfast was nice. The location in a beautiful quiet neighborhood was perfect, as it was within walking distance of the main transportation hub and close to the station in this Japan resident stay area.
Nothing, everything was great.

I absolutely adored the beautiful floral arrangements in the hotel's lobby and the cozy sitting areas. It made me feel like I was in a lovely, elegant garden. The layout of the hotel was so convenient for us seniors, with spacious hallways and clear signage, making it easy for us to navigate. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to the Foggy Bottom Metro Station and the accessibility to the nearby memorials such as the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, World War II Memorial, and the Korean War Memorial made it a perfect location for senior people like us.
I would have appreciated better lighting in the hallways for the children of the staff as it could sometimes be dim, making it a bit difficult to see.
Hugh

Our family had an amazing time exploring the 19 museums of the Smithsonian Institution and The National Mall, including The Lincoln Memorial. The hotel's walking distance from the Newseum and quick ride on the Metro made our visits convenient. We also enjoyed celebrating the life of Abraham Lincoln by visiting the revered memorial and the center, which regularly holds lively theatrical performances and lectures.
My kids wished for a more extensive children's menu at the hotel's restaurant.
Ernie
2022-11-13
The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the 19 Smithsonian museums and The National Mall, including the stunning Lincoln Memorial. We could easily walk to the Newseum and catch a quick ride on the Metro to various attractions. The hotel's proximity to the lively center meant we could enjoy fun events like stand-up comedy and concerts!
We'd love to have more vibrant nightlife options near the hotel.

Who needs fancy when you can have a creative twist on American classics? And let's not forget the thrill of touching goats and donkeys at the zoo. Meeting venues in a business district? Yes, please!
Wow, I just love it when there's hair on my towels and the waitstaff forgets basic hygiene. And who needs peace and quiet when you can hear everyone's bathroom activities?
