    Location, location, location! Metro is one block, capital bikeshare one block, not to mention that everything else is already at a walking distance. Express check-out was pretty cool too!

    Beautiful historic hotel. Lots of small suites if you can snag an upgrade. Fantastic location. Had a nice steak in Edgar's restaurant (as in JE Hoover). Concierge lounge very average.

    This is one of the best experiences I've ever had staying in a hotel. Service is great, all the ppl are so nice & helpful and the rooms are HUGE! If ur ever in the DC area, this is the place to stay.

    Excellent hotel service. A cleaning maid said she has worked here 24 years and loves it. Said another guy started at age 19 and is still working here 52 years later. Half block to the Metro.

    Wonderful historic hotel in the heart of DC. Part of Marriott's Autograph Collection. Walking distance to great restaurants, museums, and other attractions.

    Check out Monday nights microbrew draft $3 from 5-7pm w chips & dips @ Edgar Bar & Kitchen, Mayflower itself reminded me of the opulent Millennium Biltmore hotel in LA.

    The hotel is home to an on-site floral boutique as well as a gift shop so you're pretty much covered if there's a special occasion you forgot to prepare for.

    I used to love this hotel but I think the service has declined over recent years. A very beautiful place but they have to better train their managers in customer service. Gbreviewseverything rating B-

    Cool historical and ornate hotel. Lots of old money here. By far not the nicest Marriott staff I have run in to. When I asked the concierge about the hotelshistory I was directed to the gift shop. Wth

    Great Grand Hotel, doormean nicely decorated rooms, a bit small, a/c unit noisy, close to metro stop, dining, coffee and convenience store (CVS). Quick check-in and check-out. Overall favorable!

    The hotel itself is beautiful and very convenient to walking around downtown. But with only a few exceptions, the employees here are some of the rudest I've ever met. I will not be staying here again.

    Well renovated and maintained, classic old hotels. Elevator in the back gets you to some of the rooms faster.

    Great place to sleep, but the restaurant situation is poor. The hotel has no bar (one is alleged to be opening soon); the mezzanine level restaurant they do have is not good for casual time-killing.

    Check into room 871 as "George Fox"--or at the very least, drop by the room to see where former Governor of New York Elliot Spitzer became infamous.
