Very disappointed with the L'Enfant hotel in DC. Planned a family getaway during the holiday break and was quit surprised to find this hotel in desperate need of renovations. The lobby looks nice, but the rooms are very old and run down. The hotel allows pets and was appalled to find out the hard way that my request for a... more

This hotel used to be part of a larger hotel chain but due to its obvious deterioration, the chain dropped them - and rightly so. The "good": The lobby has been renovated and the meeting space is nice. The hotel sits right on top of the METRO station. The hotel is one of the few in DC that has a... more

Hotel is very nice, and having 4 Metro lines underneath cannot be overstated. Gym is exceptional for a hotel. Fridge a nice touch. Enjoyed the stay and will return. It may not be for everyone. Three considerations: 1. Hotel allows pets. I'm severely (ER-level) allergic but had no problems. Did request a room with no pets the previous night. 2.... more

We found our two-night stay at L'Enfant Plaza to be a real bargain, given the location. The $139 rate included unlimited valet parking. The lobby is nice, the staff helpful and the location superb. The only caveats are for that rate one doesn't get robes and for some reason the amenities don't include lotion. I would recommend the hotel to... more

In the past year I have stayed at this hotel in April, 2008 and Nov, 2008, and I would gladly return again when I am in DC. This hotel is very welcoming and the staff are fantastic. this past visit, my daughter and i arrived on the coldest day of the year. The valet staff were very helpful getting us... more

This hotel may be a little dated but it is a great value for the location. The hotel is within walking distance of the national mall, there are 4 metro lines just downstairs, and one of the sightseeing "hop on, hop off" buses will pick you up and drop you off in front of the hotel. If you are planning... more

I was excited to stay becasue it was so close to everything. I did not realize this hotel was an older hotel. The lobby was nice, but the pictures made the hotel seem contemporary, newer, clean... The lobby and pub were nice. The pub bartender gae my boyfriend a drink and completely forgot about mine. Not a good start... The... more

Although this hotel isn't near any restaurants, the Metro is directly below the hotel, and you can go anywhere in the city. Located close to the Mall and a short walk to the monuments and smithsonians. Hotel staff was courteous and helpful. Hotel restaurant average, but expensive. Room was clean, although no coffee maker. I've stayed at this place other... more

I stayed here for business at the suggestion of a co-worker. It was okay. The location was good as far as getting around since it sets on four of DC's metro lines, one of which is a direct line to Reagan National. If you are looking for somewhere central to restaurants and the sights it is not. While it is... more
