“The hotel was really very nice. Being an old hotel, it needs a little work on rugs, wallpaper, quilts in the room. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. When it stated it was 4-star hotel, I just expected it to be a little more upscale.”

“Nice spacious rooms, great location. Public spaces not great. Fitness room is just aerobic machines. Breakfast sparse and very expensive. Valet parking was efficient but expensive.”

“Not a bad place overall, the bathroom was in need of a serious makeover. It was dirty unacceptable for a 4 star rating. Everything else was decent, location good. I would probably not recommend the Melrose Hotel again.”

“Great place (staff, room size, location, TV) do not get me wrong, but do not leave your phone charger or you will never see it again. I even called housekeeping and they had it on Sunday. But lost it by Wednesday.”

“Close proximity to Georgetown while not immersed in Georgetown 'foot-traffic' is a big plus. You can take or leave it with little effort. Bar and Dining area are offset from entry-way, so the path to the rooms is unencumbered. Rooms are clean and well laid out with functional areas (bed, TV, office and clothing closet) properly separated. Bathroom was a positive surprise, with everything spotless and lots of room.”

“Fine location. Big room. No soap. Broken bed side lamp. Loud air handling system. Second class accommodations.”

“This hotel was well run. The front desk employees were friendly and helpful. We liked being able to catch the Metro close by to visit several area attractions. It was clean, up-to-date and easy to find.”

“Alright hotel, definitely not a 4 star hotel though. The furniture, appliances, and the amount of space was very nice. However, the really nice plasma screen TV could not be enjoyed because they only offered basic (I mean basic) cable. The air conditioner did not work. Luckily, the room temperature didnt go above 75 with the windows closed. The bathroom was small and did not offer a separate bath/shower in comparison to the Westin Grand. I almost forgot, the biggest disappointment was that they charge $10.00/day to utilize their wireless internet, who does that these days? On the other hand, the staff was very courteous and accommodating. The location was very nice too.”

“Great location, a bit less posh than we had hoped for the star rating. Friendly and cooperative staff, but not as knowledgeable about the DC sights as we expected.”

“Room quality was poor. Some of the furniture was either wobbly, broken, or just in bad shape. The location of the hotel did not seem that great either. There were not a whole lot of dining choices close to the hotel. The plus of the hotel is that there was a metro station just a block away so that you get get around town pretty well.”

“When I arrived into hotel I had a warm friendly welcome. I was exhausted from the commute and felt relieved after checking in. Gym could be better and the food is terrible. I get in late and get hungry. Not many places were open around hotel for food. I ordered room service and was VERY disappointed. I asked what was best on late night menu and was recommended a Turkey Club. It was the worst club ever, stale bread. I was shocked on how someone could go wrong with a club. Overall, I would not stay there again, unless I had to. There are a lot of good places to eat a few blocks from hotel. Church next door. That's also good. lol”

“The hotel was nice at first appearance. The staff was also extremely helpful and friendly. However for a 4-star hotel I was a little disappointed with the condition of the hotel. The room was nice but the bathroom dated and the ceiling was under repair. This room should have not been open for reservation until these repairs were completed. We enjoyed the Melrose but would have found our stay even more enjoyable if the room were complete.”

“Enjoyed our stay. Staff was helpful and friendly. It is nice, but not quite 4 star quality in comparison to other 4 stars I've stayed in the DC area. .”

“The Melrose is in the perfect location for club-hopping and shopping in Georgetown or sightseeing around DC. The Foggy Bottom metro station is an easy walk from the hotel. The lobby and rooms were very clean and well-kept. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The beds were wonderful--even better than sleeping at home! The restaurant's a la carte breakfast was good, but pricey. We were overall very impressed!”

“Very clean, strong business feel. I found a garage nearby to park and left it there for my four night stay. Other than that, I have no complaints, the room was large, everything was clean, and the location is GREAT!”

“The hotel is centrally located in the historic foggy bottom section of dc. It is 5 minutes from the metro stop and a 10 minute walk to the Kennedy Center.”

“This was probably in past years once a luxury hotel. It has seen better days. The room though clean and well equipped seemed a bit worn---the wallpaper seemed old; the bathroom lighting was awful, and the television set was poor. Nevertheless, the staff was courteous and the location is quite excellent. There's a Trader's Joe nearby and the Metro station is close by.”
