The hotel is very close to the subway and the White House - we actually walked everywhere. The room is adequate, and you could only occasionally hear your neighbors. Service was extraordinary - they know who you are and are anxious to help in any way, with a real friendliness you usually only find in foreign countries. It is a... More

It was our 25th anniversary, and we stayed one weekend night. The service is attentive and friendly. The hotel location is ideal, only a block away from the White House, and near all the main D.C. attractions. We were given an upgrade, and the room was very nice, facing the street. The lobby level restaurant is very nice, especially its... More

Arrived on the 20th May at approx 5.30pm. Although room should have been ready from 3pm. we were given several reasons why room was unavailable non of which seemed believable. After some 30 minutes room was available. Not a good start to what was a lovely hotel in a prime location for all tourist sites. Dining was very expensive and... More

We chose the Sofitel based on its location (a 2 min walk from the White House) and from the other glowing reviews on TripAdvisor, and were so glad we did! The staff, hotel and room were all exceptional and we had such a lovely stay. The weather was terrible when we were there, so the complimentary umbrellas were a god... More

We enjoyed our stay at the Sofitel. As others have said, the location is excellent. 1 block from a Metro stop, and a short walk to the White House and the Washington Monument. The room was a bit small but adequately sized for what we needed. It would have been nice to have (1) a second comfortable chair (which is... More

Brilliant location in the centre of this city and within walking distance or a short cab ride away from everything. Service was excellent and the concierge/front desk team Cynthia and Cameron were absolutely brilliant. Great atmosphere in the bar, and the rooms were quiet, and very comfortable and well appointed. We did get a 4 nights for 3 deal by... More

Sofitel was in a great spot, just a few blocks from the White House and the other Monuments. Its also about 1.5 mile walk to Georgetown and super close to great restaurants. Staff was helpful on tell us where to walk too, and they also gave my wife, who runs, a few running maps around the area. We went during... More

I just completed a business-related week long stay at the Sofitel. Over the years, I've stayed here many times and have grown to really like the Sofitel for various reasons, through there are a few things in need of improvement: 1) Location is excellent - very close to K street, not for from several metro stops, and close to numerous...

We just returned from a six-night stay at the Sofitel Lafayette Square. Great experience. Considering the level of luxury, service and location, the rooms were very reasonably priced. Every staff member we encountered went out of his or her way to help us and answer our questions -- from the front desk clerk who WALKED us, without being asked, to... More
