My fiance and I went down to Washington D.C.for a few days to attend 2013 National Police Week and we stayed at The Liaison Capitol Hill, an Affinia Hotel. It's a boutique hotel on New Jersey Avenue, a few blocks from the Capitol and Judiciary Square. If you plan to visit other sites such as the White House, Washington Monument... More

We stayed in April 2013 for four nights. The location is excellent if, as a tourist, one is primarily focusing on the Capitol Hill side of the Mall. Otherwise, the location does seem a bit out of the way, even taking into account the proximity to Union Station. The staff of the hotel are competent but not overly helpful -... More

Me and my friend traveled to DC to tour the museums and relax for the weekend. I understand that everyone's preferences differ, as well as what they're staying for; therefore, some people may have ill feelings about The Liaison Capitol Hill, but I think that anyone posting negative reviews is just nit-picking. If you are looking for a nice location,... More

The hotel is located on New Jersey Ave and D Street and standing right in front of the hotel you´ll see the Capitol. Good first impression. It is two blocks to Union Station which was quite convenient. But, two block into the other direction the area is less good with lots of homeless people living above the I-395 tunnel. It... More

Stayed here in March 2013. The hotel is comfortably situated near The Capitol Hill and the Grand Central Station. Good sized rooms, friendly staff etc makes it a comfortable stay. The highlight is the location. It is about 7 minute walk to Grand Central station and a 10 minute walk to the Capitol Hill Visitor Centre. The sight seeing tour... More

The Liaison could be such a good place to go, it's well located, nice building, but I didn't get much sleep there. I found the plugs for the ears the morning we left and still I don't feel it's appropriate to serve guest with ear plugs. We didn't have a view from our room and I heard trucks going all... More

How can a place whose chief purpose is to provide a place to sleep, have an attached parking garage where the valets honk the horn rounding the turns - ALL NIGHT LONG....

An excellent location (on Capitol Hill) with a modern vibe, with comfortable rooms and a great restaurant on the first floor. A bit pricey, but not by DC standards. Staff was friendly, the room clean and well appointed, and the bathroom roomy and well equipped.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Connect with comfort in one of our 343 newly renovated guest rooms! One of the top boutique hotels in Washington, DC, The Liaison Capitol Hill is inviting guests to experience our newest hotel updates. Our recent redesign completely transformed all guest rooms and corridors featuring modern lighting and sleek furnishings, creating an ambiance of timeless, contemporary living. The décor is inspired by our location in the heart of Washington, DC, highlighting the prominence of the capital city and its political landscape through bold colors. The result, in addition to a newly, renovated DC boutique hotel, is a sophisticated hot spot for politicians and the like to gather and socialize after a long day of tending to the affairs of our nation, providing guests with a powerful connection to the city as well as an urban hideaway away from prying eyes. The rooms feature flat screen TVs, Wi-Fi, iHome docks, modern furnishings, upgraded signature Affinia bedding and remodeled bathrooms. The hallways have been refurbished with new carpeting, wall decor and lighting to match the new guestroom décor and offer a transition between the buzz downstairs and the privacy upstairs. Boasting a prime location on Capitol Hill, The Liaison is the closest hotel to the U.S. Capitol. The Smithsonian, the National Mall, Union Station, and dozens of the country’s most visited museums and monuments are within walking distance. The Capitol Hill hotel is both a powerful bond to the nation’s capital and a comfortable escape as well. At in-house restaurant Art and Soul, celebrity Chef Art Smith lovingly creates his award-winning Southern-modern “food for the soul.” Our seasonal rooftop pool and bar make another spectacular setting, with views that highlight The Liaison’s central location between Union Station and the Capitol. ... more   less
