Immerse yourself in the rich history of our capital city by staying at the Morrison-Clark Historic Inn and Restaurant. Built during the civil war as two separate mansions, the Morrison-Clark homes typify the elegant charm of historic Washington DC. Lovingly restored, the homes retain their lofty, medallioned ceilings, Italian Carrera decorative-marble fireplaces, and exquisite, red-tiled Shanghai roofs. Steeped in tradition, but with all of the comforts of modern day amenities, a stay at the Morrison-Clark Historic Inn is a chance to experience the warmth of the past without surrendering the comforts of the present.

I recently stayed at the Morrison-Clark Historic Inn during a solo trip to Washington, DC, and it was an exceptional experience. The hotel’s blend of historic charm and modern amenities provided a comfortable and unique stay. The staff were welcoming and attentive, ensuring I felt safe and well-cared for throughout my visit. My room was cozy, impeccably clean, and thoughtfully appointed, making it a perfect retreat after a day of exploring the city. The location is ideal—within walking distance to major attractions and public transportation, yet tucked away enough to offer a peaceful atmosphere. I highly recommend the Morrison-Clark Historic Inn to any solo traveler seeking a memorable and comfortable stay in DC.

I haven't written a review on Tripadvisor in years, but I wanted to share my experience at the Morrison Clark Inn. It looks exactly like the pictures online. The hotel exceeded my expectations in almost every category. Spotlessly clean, even the outdoor spaces. Very helpful staff. I asked for a quiet room, and my room was so quiet that I didn't need earplugs. Great coffee in the lobby. Always someone at the front desk. Less than a quarter mile to the metro station. Situated in an area that felt safe with plenty of restaurants and cafes within walking distance. My room was small, which is typical for a city. My only complaint is that the carpet was shot and needs to be replaced. That said, I would absolutely stay here again.

Fabulous hotel in Washington. Beautiful building combined with all the facilities you need for your stay and in an amazingly central spot. My room was well provisioned, with a nice wee view. It was quiet (despite the location). Staff were helpful and friendly. The restaurant was very nice, with a good menu and range of of foods. Would define stay again.

This hotel was absolutely beautiful - our room was stylishly decorated and a great size. This is easily the best place that I have stayed I. The DC area and I have stayed in many hotels. The service was also extremely friendly and professional. We will be back

Restaurant is a hidden gem! Charming and elegant ambiance, extraordinary menu choices (at all price points) creatively and beautifully presented! We had a lovely evening and all were delighted with their food—rack of lamb, chicken picatta, crab cakes, etc. Waiter (Omar) was especially helpful!
