Sofitel Washington DC Lafayette Square

The room was beautiful with a great bed and pillows the service outstanding (yes, I get extra cold all the time - they noticed and brought me an extra blanket; nespresso coffee maker for my 3 am call); and also make the best Pisco Sour I've had in Washington DC. Had breakfast there - great coffee and service; lunch and dinners within two blocks as well as well managed board meeting there.

This hotel is perfect and in the perfect location. Only thing is, when you check out they hit you with a $38 URBAN something Fee per night.

We had a chance to stay at the Sofitel Lafayette Square during a recent trip to Washington DC. This is an excellent choice it one is interested in visiting Government buildings and museums. Just minutes from the White House and many good restaurants and attractions. The hotel has a very nice dinner restaurant/lounge and also a smaller restaurant for breakfast. A pool would have been nice but great service and very nice rooms make this an excellent choice in DC.

I had a wonderful stay throughout my visit. The room was clean and well-maintained, and everything was satisfactory except for the slightly weak shower pressure. On the third day of my stay, housekeeping came by and the single sofa had been replaced— the original one had worn leather. I appreciated seeing that the property is consistently maintained. I would also like to thank the male front desk staff member who welcomed me warmly at check-in. I was a bit flustered due to an issue with my card payment, but he was patient, polite, and very kind. Thanks to him, my first impression of Washington was wonderful. The location was excellent—close to everything yet on a quiet street, making it easy to rest. And housekeeping starts around 9 a.m., so guests who plan to get ready later may want to hang the “Do Not Disturb” sign in advance. If I return to Washington, I would gladly stay here again.

My stay was lovely, albeit very quick for a business trip. The hotel staff was incredibly accommodating and kind during my time spent. Very walkable to many restaurants and to tourist attractions.
