Residence Inn Washington, DC/Dupont Circle

We looked for a reasonably priced Marriott near the zoo and this one came up. It is walking distance from many restaurants and shops. We had a one-bedroom with kitchenette on an upper floor and definitely appreciated the full refrigerator! Despite the overall room size, the bedroom only had a queen bed. The living/dining area was roomy and comfortable. Maybe some of that space, or closet space, could have been used to squeeze a king bed into the bedroom. The lighting in the kitchenette was inadequate. This, some of the decor, and the a/c unit that was noisy enough to wake me up at 2:30 AM, didn’t impress me. There is onsite parking in an underground private garage but it is cramped for a larger vehicle like our van. I priced other parking but there aren’t many convenient and/or safe options nearby. Their parking is $50/night plus a parking tax for a total of $62.50/night! Their complimentary breakfast is nice and has some good variety so that’s worth a lot in this part of DC. - i.e. helps make up for some of the parking cost.

Our two bedroom suite on the sixth floor was perfect for traveling with my husband and mother. The rooms were clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It was quiet and we all slept well on the comfortable beds. We easily walked to many restaurants and there is a small market just next door. We never waited more than 10 seconds for an elevator! The best part of this hotel, however, is the staff. Everyone (front desk, housekeeping and breakfast staff) is so friendly and accommodating. The breakfast staff are especially attentive, greeting everyone, quickly cleaning empty tables, taking dirty plates and restocking food. They joke with the kids, and travel among the tables to offer muffins or omelets. If we return to DC, we wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

This hotel is located in downtown Washington, D.C. with a secured underground parking garage at a rate of approximately $50.00 per day plus applicable tax. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean, and the complimentary breakfast offered a nice variety of food and beverages. My friends and I had a great visit admiring the cherry blossom trees at their peak bloomage during the last weekend of March 2025. We were pleased with our stay.

Decent value in DC Decent option.

Great experience. My family had a great stay at Residence Inn by Marriott, it’s located in a quiet street and close to Dupont Circle Metro Station (just 5-6 minutes walk). It’s close to downtown DC (3 stations to The Triangle Federal Station), The White House, Capital Building, and Ronald Reagan Airport (6 miles). Staffs are very friendly, they greeted us with a smile when we showed up for breakfast. Breakfast was changed every day. I highly recommend this hotel when you are in DC.

Amazing Staff and Amazing Breakfast So, the staff made our stay amazing! From the front desk clerk, Ronita, to the maintenance engineer, to the associates at breakfast. They were so incredibly friendly. It was easy to overlook the renovations taking place because the staff took care of any need or concern. They were amazing in the middle of a renovation and I'm sure they will be even more outstanding after. Then there's the breakfast buffet. Incredible. Amazing selection for a variety of dietary needs.
