It stands head and shoulders above other 4 Star hotels. I'd rate it a solid 4.5. Its not new or newly redecorated...so you could have individual "room issues" Our hair dryer was dead.. not a big deal...the carpet could have been "cleaner looking" but I'd book here again in a heart beat. Wonderful more

What a lovely hotel. We were made to feel welcome and at home by all the great staff here. Nothing was too much trouble. The room was large, bed comfortable, very clean and the food was great. It took about 20 minutes to walk to downtown Washington, which we didn't mind, as the walk is very interesting, with many great... more

We stayed here during the Memorial Day weekend. We were not disappointed with the hotel. The beds were quite comfortable, the room was clean and spacious. The location was quite close to the Georgetown neighbourhood, which was very nice to walk around. You're also very close to the Foggy Bottom/GWU Metro stop, making getting around the DC area very convenient,... more

Stayed at the Melrose 3 days and were very pleased. Great location, very clean rooms and baths; excellent staff were efficient, helpful and friendly. Wonderful area for walking and shopping. We will stay there again and would be happy to suggest this hotel to friends. it is also pet friendly, which is another plus. more

I really wanted to give the Melrose hotel a high rating since I got such a good price on the room. Staff is very friendly-checked us in early. Had to switch rooms. Hotel is just older looking-worn out carpet edges-doors and paint updating needed all over hotel. Price was good- near metro and Georgetown. Good water pressure and hot water... more

We've just returned from DC where we experienced the Cherry Blossom Festival. We stayed 5 nights in a Deluxe Double Bed room on the 7th floor. The room was enormous in comparison to a standard Holiday Inn type room. The furniture and sheets and towels were of above average quality. The bathroom/sink area was no smaller than a normal room.... more

In March I stayed at Melrose for three nights. I really enjoyed the stay. But of course you can always find something negativ or positiv in every hotel no matter how much you pay. My positiv things were: Great location The size of my room. Price ($149 pr. night) Really nice furniture My negativ things were: No breakfast included Lack... more

We recently stayed in a deluxe room for $99 and were very happy. The room was beautiful, service was excellent and the location was great. It's close to the Foggy Bottom Metro stop and close to the free shuttle to Kennedy Center. The only negative is that the bathroom could use an update. more

We're big fans of boutique hotels -- hate the cookie-cutter effect of chains. We chose the Melrose Inn because of its proximity to Georgetown (we drove to DC from Ch'ville, VA for our anniversary weekend and planned to go dancing at Georgetown bars). This place was also less than a mile from the Nat'l Mall, so we had a nice,... more
