The Jefferson, Washington, DC

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at The Jefferson during the week of 4th of July. The staff, room service and the food was amazing. Our children ages 3 & 8 truly felt at home and loved the stuffed animals they received upon arrival. Our 3 year old said she wanted to live in her new home at the hotel. She very much enjoyed her bubble baths in the big soaking tub. As well as the child size robes waiting for her and her brother in the room. The hotel also was sure to make our beloved dog Grace feel welcomed. She is a very important family member and hotel staff treated her as such. They had a cozy bed waiting for her along with food and water dishes. She even had her own bottled water. Kudos to The Jefferson for making our stay truly the best. I forgot to mention how beautiful the rooms are. AMAZING!!!

Our family stayed for 4 nights on our Visit to D.C. The hotel is beautiful and elegant. Upon our arrival we were given a tour and the hotel's history setting the tone for our trip. We enjoyed breakfast every morning in the restaurant under the skylights. When we returned to the hotel after a busy day of touring D.C. in the July heat, we were greater with refreshing ice tea or water. The book room was a great way to unwind from the busy day. All staff was friendly and helpful throughout our visit. Our rooms were beautifully decorated and had all the comforts of home. Our stay was exceptional! We hope to return!

So...I booked this hotel because it was close to a conference venue, I loved the chandeliers in the pictures, and there was lap pool access at the University Club...it was truly a beautiful hotel... Super fancy - almost too fancy for me - if there is such a thing... It was a great stay - my room was super small, but unique and fine for space for just me. My only disappointment was that I didn't have a chandelier in my room...lol... Comfy bed and pillows/linens. Staff were great. It rained quite a bit, but everything was within walking distance and they had umbrellas for you.

Stayed here for three nights on business. This is a lovely boutique style hotel, with modern rooms but with a sense of tradition. The basic rooms are quite cosy, so we upgraded to a suite - which was great. The bar is cosy and great, the restaurant (which we only breakfasted at) really nicely laid out and would be great for dining if we had had time. But the best thing about the hotel for me was that it oozes history and tradition, whilst keeping up with the times in respect of style, service and class. Much better than experiencing a huge hundreds of rooms type place, and with very helpful service to match. Will be my favoured hotel in future visits to Washington DC.

Upon entering the lobby you just know that you have hit the "big time". This lovely hotel has ambiance that you just do not feel in the newer hotels...and while it may appear to be a bit "stuffy" it certainly makes up for in the quality service and food.
