Top American University Hotel Reviews

Washington Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and nice"

Omni Shoreham Hotel Washington DC

10/10 Excellent

"We’ve been staying at the Omni Shoreham Hotel for years now. Our son went to college in the area and now lives there. The hotel is conveniently situated near the metro and the many interesting neighborhoods in Washington DC. The rooms are very comfortable, especially the beds and pillows. The rooms are generously sized for a city hotel. Dogs are permitted in the hotel and we frequently travel with ours. It’s just a completely comfortable, beautiful historic hotel and we feel at home there."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington DC Chevy Chase Pavilion

8/10 Good

"Everyone was disappointed that they didn’t have any sodas for breakfast or the evening reception all week. We had to pay $6 per 16oz Coke, Sprite etc. Ridiculous prices!!! We also say in the lobby every morning and it was several days in a row that the same trash was under the coffee table telling me it wasn’t cleaned thoroughly often enough. Other than that the staff was friendly and location was good."
