    We had a nice stay at The Hamilton while we visited the museums and monuments. The room was comfortable with a King-sized bed with adequate space to walk around. There were electrical plugs on the base of the lamp on the nightstand, and the desk had a built-in strip with plugs including USB. The bathroom had body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion as well as a hairdryer. There was an iron & ironing board in the closet. Don't confuse the mini-bar with the mini-fridge. The mini-bar has drinks and snacks on the top, which are sensor activated so if you move them, you will be charged. The staff was very nice and the lady who checked us in was very helpful with maps and directions. We had several hours before our flight on check-out day, and they held our luggage for us while we did more touristy things. The hotel is close to the museums. You could walk or take the bus. There's several bus stops across the street and it's about one-and-a-half blocks to the Metro station.

    My sister and I had to give Sabrina a hug on our way out, because she's truly amazing!

    This was my absolute favorite hotel I've Ever stayed at, and it's all because of Sabrina and Manny! I've never met a hotel manager more fun and friendly and authentic than Sabrina! What a Gem! I would come back and stay again, just to see her! And Manny was so incredibly helpful and kind, every time we had a question about directions or anything else. His classiness and kindness was off the charts Amazing! Hamilton Hotel, I hope you realize what amazing people you have working here

    The website photos are very misleading. Majority of hotel and lobby has a weird smell. Please see the pictures below of Room. Would not recommend.

    Black mold in the sink

    Stayed here for 2 nights in April 2026. While the hotel's age could account for some things like outdated outlets and bathroom appliances, there is no reason for any establishment to be in this level of disrepair. From the "dirty laundry" smell that permeated our room, to the visible mold and dirt, I wouldn't even recommend this place to someone on a tight budget. The price point and the photos of the restaurant and lobby make this place seem like the upper level of the mid-range of boutique hotels, but I've had a cleaner room and better service at a Holiday Inn express. Carpets and furniture in the lobby were filthy and old. The one redeeming quality is the proximity to amenities, and the view of Franklin park.

    I left an item in the room, called immediately, and after a wild goose chase I didn't get it back. The situation was handled unprofessionally and there was poor communication at every level that left a bad taste in my mouth. My experience was truly terrible, and it's ground enough for me to strongly recommend against trusting this hotel with your stay.

    Photo of filthy vent.

    Absolute dump! I would stay at this place is the paid me. Rooms are dilapidated, run down and filthy dirty. The vent in the bathroom was filled with visible mold and dust. Disgusting! See the photo. I cannot believe this place hasn't been shut down by the health department.

    The Hamilton Hotel is located in a great spot in Downtown DC. Only blocks from the White House and one block to a Metro station. We chose this hotel as we are big fans of the TV show, Veep, and they have a suite themed after it. The suite contains several props from the show which was very fun for us as fans. The suite consisted of a bedroom, bathroom, living room and entry hallway and was on the upper floor of the hotel. The view was on Franklin Park and the Washington Monument in the distance. During our stay we enjoyed the clean room, beautiful historic look and feel of the hotel, and the location. We had an issue with our tub not draining, but it was fixed quickly once we mentioned it. The room was stocked with fresh towels daily and was clean. Some people need to be reminded what a historic hotel experience can be like and what their expectations need to be. That being said, we enjoyed our time here and would consider it again for future trips.

    Broken curtain holder

    Absolutely a horrible hotel. First off, the curtain in the bathroom was completely missing. I was completely exposed using the toilet or showering. Second, the bathtub drain was broke. Third, the carpet was disgustingly. Do not stay here.

    So nobody talks about how their is no place to park? And how it's 59$ valet only? I'm just asking…

    There's a great self park garage on the same block - pay ahead of time with SpotHero and spend a fraction of that cost.

    Dupont Circle

    We rented the lower level apartment for 5 nights in November 2009…read more Full kitchen, which we only used for making coffee. Great location, about 3 blocks from the northern escalator at Du Pont Circle. Plenty of room to spread out, it was just my wife and I but 6 could get cozy in here and 4 could be comfortable. TV, free wireless internet, excellent location and a pleasant hostess. The basement apartment is self sufficient, so we did not have the "bed and breakfast" experience of sharing, but that's OK for us.. We had our own full bath, our own exterior entrance, etc. Rates vary, but this was such a better deal than any hotel room, how can you go wrong?

Our host, Dana, was very friendly and, since our sight-seeing plans were kind of up-in-the-air, gave us lots of good advice on places to go and things to see. The room was really cute and clean. The bed was amazingly comfortable -- one of those adjustable tempurpedic mattresses. I'm not sure if every room has one or if it was just our room, but it sure made it hard to want to get out of bed. There is free wi-fi and continental breakfast downstairs in the morning. This place is a great alternative to the pricey hotels around DC -- it has a private, relaxing feel and yet is close enough to the Metro that it is also pretty convenient. We would definitely stay here again.

    Six of us decided to have brunch here…read more A delightful old facility with a very cool main floor meeting area and dining. We were served at an upper level, and anyone who likes to drink a lot might be persuaded to eat at the lower level where the bathroom was. There is an "office" there that has terrible signs touting locally-made potato chips, T-shirts, and other gifts. I hope they're not relying on these as an income stream. Very nice server... with too many to wait on our floor. Service was a bit slow, but you have to accept this as par -- anywhere you go. No worries. I had the Eggs Benedict, a Boozy Hot Chocolate, and the highly-acclaimed "Donut." The eggs were very good, but the potatoes bites were soggy... might have been cooked a minute or two more. The Boozy Hot Chocolate seemed far more chocolate than anything else. Live, and learn. The "Donut" was good, but wasn't what I'd expected. It was more the consistency of French toast, very doughy, and served with whipped cream. The fact that I didn't care for it didn't mean that it's bad. The only thing I'd change in my experience was that I tried unsuccessfully to flag down our server to bring some coffee to me. We ran out of time before the check came (as 5 of the 6 had to go back to work -- yes, on a Sunday) Still, the menu looked interesting and I'd probably come back -- but probably at an off-peak time.

    When Policy Replaces Hospitality…read more We were so excited to celebrate my wife's birthday weekend here and explore nearby monuments -- it was something we'd been looking forward to for months. Unfortunately, life threw us a curveball and we had to cancel. We called right away, hoping the hotel might show a little understanding, but instead, we were immediately charged $500. My wife was crying on the phone, even asking if we could at least pay part of it, but we were told no exceptions were possible. I understand policies exist, but sometimes empathy goes further than rules. It's disheartening when a place that should represent hospitality forgets the human side of it. And in fact we were hoping to reschedule our reservations until we saw the charge was already placed.

The guest house is very cozy and homey; yes I would say it is a tad shabby and very much loved-in, but everything is clean and in working condition, the ac worked perfectly, the bed was comfortable, the shower was hot, and the vibe was completely welcoming and warm. Make sure you read all the info on the website, the only TV is in the common area (though there was good WiFi access in the rooms), the only parking is street parking which is free overnight until 9am but $15 for a permit during the day, but this is all made clear on the website, I had no surprises. In fact the owner was very helpful when we had our rental car a night longer than expected and he let us park in his personal driveway for a short time so we could have a leisurely breakfast and not rush to move it. Breakfast is simple but filling and well-cooked, when the pot of coffee is done after breakfast you can always make yourself a cup of keurig, there is always a bottle of wine and a plate of cookies to welcome guests when they return (my only complaint is the cookies are cooked crisp... I like mine chewy!! :P). All-in-all we would definitely return. Amazingly convenient location (5 min walk to the metro which we used daily), comfortable rooms, great service.

    I stayed here 4 nights to save money versus a stay in nearby Wardman Park convention center hotels…read more I agree with other reviewers that the accommodations are spartan (and maybe a bit shabby) but the rooms were clean and quiet. And, most importantly, the queen sized bed was extremely comfortable, so I got a good night's sleep throughout my stay. The location is excellent--close to the Metro, so there's no need to have a car. Proprietor Jack was friendly and tremendously helpful and attentive to my needs--most especially after I sprained my ankle while out for a jog after my second night's stay! He personally provided ice packs and arranged for his staff to do my laundry--gratis! I am very happy that I was staying at his place when that injury occurred.

    I stayed at this B and B during my stay in Washington D.C in June of 2019. The house has 4 rooms,…read moreeach with its own private (full) bath. All rooms were booked as we were there for a conference. There are no elevators, so if you can't handle stairs, this is not the place for you. The third floor room is quite large and has a connecting kitchenette. I did not stay in that room, but I did spend time in the room working with a colleague. I loved the experience - it was my first time at a B and B. The owner was kind, helpful, and made sure our needs and desires were met. Breakfast was served at 8:00 each day...I got the impression that was the only option. Had I been there for pleasure, perhaps I would have preferred a bit later but since I was there for business it wasn't a big deal. Breakfast was amazing each day. The chef took into account our dietary needs, AND provided us with delicious food each and every day. I loved it. We all gathered in the dining room and shared breakfast together. Since we were all there for a conference, we had much to talk about it, even though we'd just met (I knew one person only). The home does not have central air conditioning but each guest room and the dining room have air units - I was fine. Yes, the parlor was a bit stuffy - and we had to meet in there a few times for work purposes but I did not suffer too much. The place is so darn charming! It is located on Logan Circle which is a wonderful neighborhood. We walked the area quite a bit and found some great restaurants. My room had a hairdryer, shampoo, and soap provided. The room is cleaned every 3 days unless you request it - that was perfectly fine with me. I had plenty of towels/rags, so no complaints there. While the home decor is restored to the way it would have been in 1883, modern amenities were there...AC in rooms, cable TV, iron with ironing board, mini refrigerator, and a great shower. Things I wished for: coffee at 7:00am and that the metro was a tad closer....that's it. I could not have asked for a better host. I will return to the Chester Arthur B and B when I return to DC with my husband for vacation.

It's only 2 blocks from Dupont Circle, and just as close to the business meetings I had. I really felt that I was in Washington DC instead of in a generic hotel.

Address is 23 Logan Circle.
