Pretty nice hotel in a decent location. The room was nice and the bed was great. Only complaints are there were spiders in most of the corners of the room, the street noise is SUPER loud, and the valet parking is really high.
Outstanding hotel. The junior suite was perfect. Comfortable bed, excellent shower, very quiet. The staff was very attentive and helpful. The happy hour in the bar was great.
Absolutely wonderful! This place goes above and beyond to make your stay exactly what you want. Great food, wonderful bar, lovely rooms and awesome guest relations. You will not be disappointed.
We stayed in a nice queen room off the courtyard. A little noisy, but quiets down late-night. Breakfast is delicious at the restaurant. Service is good, and staff is friendly. Metro is just a few minutes' walk, and there's a little market even closer. Would definitely stay here again.
Nice room and friendly staff, they know me by name.
This was by far the best experience in lodging I have ever had the pleasure to experience. The location is scenic walk, short metro ride, or cheap uber to the National Mall and is as beautiful on the inside as the exterior. Gadissa checked us in and upon hearing it was our anniversary weekend took the time to choose for us a beautiful room to stay in (though I highly doubt there is unsatisfactory choice in the Inn). His kindness went above and beyond and he did everything in his power to now only make our stay comfortable, but memorable. Frasier was also a great help to us fielding all our questions with patience and enthusiasm. We arrived before our check-in time and the bellhop graciously stored our luggage away so we didn't have to cart it all over the city. And, to top it all of we received champagne and chocolates to celebrate our anniversary. If you're going to stay in the heart of D.C. forgo the chain hotels and stay at the Morrison-Clark. It is a stay that you won't soon forget.
Went for dinner and had an amazing time! The food was delicious. I definitely recommend the key lime pie!
This was the most pristine hotel I have been to. Beautifully decorated. Well furnished. Comfortable beds and linens. Clean, bright, modern bathroom.
It was comfortable and very fun place. Food and staff was Great .
Very comfortable room centrally located to the convention center! We liked the history of the building and the boutique nature of the rooms
Very nice, clean and quaint. The water pressure in the shower is awesome as well.
I actually enjoyed staying at this historic hotel. It is very close to convention center and the staff are veerrry nice and accommodating.
Stayed here for Otakon 2019. Made the reservation through Hotwire. Got an amazing deal cost-wise, but the deal slowly depreciated in value due to a few discoveries:
1. One photo per room model - my friends and I (4 people in total) stayed in the Queen/Superior Room. I noticed there was only one photo so I checked the website, scoured the web, and could not find more than that one photo. Called and asked for the dimensions, additional photos....asked someone to go into one of the rooms and take photos to either send to me, or upload onto the site. The hotel REFUSED to do anything to help me and my friends plan appropriately. Attached are photos of our Superior/Queen-sized room, since the hotel WON'T. Took upon myself to take photos - see below
2. Hotel Layout - Takes alot of getting used to. You'll most likely get lost, and there didn't seem to be any maps available.
3. Internet - Extremely slow. Yes, it was convoluted due to heavy use, but was slow regardless
4. TV - We were there for an anime convention. There was no way for us to hook our laptops to the tv screen in our room because it's mounted. Not the end of the world, but annoying.
5. The Superior/Queen Room - And finally, the details on the room. Can only speak to this room...but....it's EXTREMELY small. The walking areas (from door to bathroom) are extremely narrow. Instead of a standard bathroom door, there was a saloon looking door that had two parts. You needed to use a supreme amount of elbow grease in order to fully close both sides...worst of all, there was NO lock for the doors. Bathroom is very small as well. There's a small, already populated refrigerator in the room - it's filled with alcoholic drinks the hotel hopes you'll drink/pay for. None of my friends drink, and so it was purely a nuisance. There's no microwave either.
All and all, make this place your last option. Hotel staff was really nice in person, but the employee I spoke with regarding my hotel room layout request was kinda rude to me. There are much better options in the area.
It's a nice hotel but the dinner I had was not so fantastic.There was no kettle or tea items in the room but the hotel is quite good and the staff are great.
I was so disappointed, when I drove three hours to DC for a nice vocation, not only find out they don't know how to give direction, toke me 20 mins to find that place after I called them three times, and very disorganized, no one opened the door for us, I had a reservation, but the door man jumped into the conversation between me and the front desk to ask me for money for valet parking, I HAD A CREDIT CARD ON FILE!! Did i mention I tried to contact them about their parking, request a call back in an hour, which never received, and a email which never replied. Very small room, very disturb outside. paid for a three star room, only get a two star.
Rooms excellent but coffee drought until the greasy American breakfast.
Wonderful appetizers and main course, however dessert was barely edible. Get a new pastry chef. St. Valentine's dinner.
Room was right by the lobby. It was ridiculously loud since there is a bar there.
A friendly staff that was very understanding of my travel circumstances. They remember your name and go above and beyond to help their guests.
The service is great. I love the environment and the lovely staff. I can t wait to be back in this hotel. Very clean place. I love it I love it. I forgot, the people that clean the rooms, thank you good job.
I stayed as an overnight guest for a conference nearby at the convention center. The location was great, only two blocks from the convention center. Hotel was very clean and updated. I stayed on the new side of the hotel, but I heard great things about the other side as well. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again.
Love this hotel! Immaculate, which is super important! The bed was amazingly comfy, and everyone with whom I interacted was so nice. Would definitely stay there again!
Pros:
- Beautiful, modern decor
- Recent construction and renovation
- Great customer service
- Outdoor patio!
- Good mini-bar selection
Cons:
- Expensive valet parking, no on-site parking, though closest parking garage is just a couple of blocks away
- Ridiculously slow Internet
- Limited amenities
While this is a beautiful inn with contemporary styling, it lacks in terms of amenities such as parking, and Internet access. During the entirety of my stay, the Internet service was very slow and unable to support web 2.0/html 5 applications. For visitors attending a conference at the nearby convention center, access to reliable Internet for telework or reach back is essential. I can not in good faith recommend this hotel for traveling professionals. If you are a tourist, it might do, but keep in mind this hotel has been completely renovated and lost any historic flair. It might as well have been built this year.
Loved it. Good service location etc. Jesus the bar tender was great value.
Had some problems but they are getting worked out, last night no ac cooling.
Lovely hotel and the salmon/crab entree is amazing!
What a gem! Fantastic food and ambiance. It s a quieter elegant experience than most places on the city at a reasonable price.
Quiet and comfortable rooms, however I was put in a room accessible only by going outside which lead to many flying bugs attracted to light entering my room.
Went for a holiday lunch with our office. Great food, really enjoyed the salmon. Food was great. Coconut shrimp and ahi tuna steak apps were tiny portions.
Friendly staff, extremely helpful and smiles made us feel welcome.
Good hotel, generally. Nice room with a comfortable bed and a good shower. Clean and comfortable room overall. The breakfast choice and quality are good. Most of the staff are friendly and accommodating.
I would have scored it higher had it not been for one detail - I would stress, be careful when leaving, they may order you a taxi even if you have your own booked and paid for. Despite repeatedly telling the porter I had my own car booked, and they would arrive at 6pm and give my name. As I was exiting the hotel, he came over to me and told me that my car had arrived It turned out it wasn t my car but one he had arranged. It caused me much inconvenience, extra money, and stress.
I give them the benefit of the doubt, and perhaps it was a genuine mistake, and the hotel or porter are not working on commission with the taxi firm. However, I did make myself very clear that I did NOT require them to find me a cab, and that I was expecting one I had booked myself, so would urge anyone staying here always double check the car you are getting into is the one you payed for!
This is a very sweet hotel. Each one of the staff is attentive, helpful, and genuinely friendly. The rooms have everything you need. Breakfast in the restaurant is wonderful, service in the restaurant characteristically excellent. Fresh squeezed orange juice and perfectly cooked eggs.
What a really nice looking hotel. The outside does not really seem like anything special but once you are inside the hotel, it's a different story. Really modern and has almost like a new Orleans vibe to it. The room was small and comfy but very modern. Overall it was clean but with few amenities. Only complaint I have of this hotel is the parking. The parking garage they have is extremely tight and small. It was a hassle just to get in and park and even worst to get out. Overall a very nice hotel situated in the middle of everything. I would definitely stay here again .
WARNING: Avoid this hotel! It has hostile, inflexible policies.
I had a family situation and was unable to complete my trip to DC. The hotel charged me $308.81 for my missed night. Unlike most modern hotels, Morrison-Clark doesn t send any reminders about upcoming reservations. Miraculously, I did receive a notification of my missed check-in the next day. How convenient! When I explained the situation, the clerk said Morrison-Clark s policy is to charge the full fee for missed nights. So sorry, Morrison-Clark, that I was in the middle of a family emergency and didn t think to cancel my hotel reservation! Thanks for being understanding and accommodating. Keep my $308.81. It is the only money you will get from me. Thankfully, there are many hotel options in your region.
The hotel is in a very good area for walking to restaurants and near by venues. The hotel is clean and the staff is friendly. I am mostly happy with the stay but the AC does not quite keep up and there are quite a few stairs to walk around. I would choose to stay here again.
Renovations are beautiful and upscale. The food was superb and the portions were more than sufficient. I have recommended it to all of my friends.
Terrible. After choosing this place for a spontaneous visit to DC, we went to dinner, came back, then we were talking in the bathroom and shower while we were getting ready for bed. The front desk called the police on us for a noise complaint; we only heard the phone ring once. To boot, someone had gone through our dirty laundry and bags while we were in the shower (what in the actual #$!!... And I don't often even imply expletives in any public writing). I have never experienced anything like this before, in any customer service experience, and I hope to never again. I felt unsafe and disrespected. Luckily for us, metro police escorted us to another hotel safely and without incident, but this was all terribly unnecessary and ridiculous. If the noise barrier between the walls is so thin for a "completely renovated" hotel, they should make that explicitly clear to guests upon checking in.
Other lowlights:
-The door between our room and the next room was unlockable from either side.
-The bathroom didn't have a fan, which can be gross for a romantic getaway.
Great location and 5 min walk away from Walter E Washington Convention Center.
It is clean but it is not understandable that there is no coffee maker in the room for the price of the night.
It is a great hotel, with good facilities but the staff must be more helpful. It is unethical that only one language speaks in a hotel of this category. Nor did they help us by indicating that some employees spoke Spanish. In addition, the few employees who understood and / or spoke Spanish did not provide anything since they did not speak to you in Spanish. This situation in Spain never happens. To be able to work in the hospitality sector you must have at least two languages, training and be helpful and help the tourist to the fullest but in this hotel it is not so.
Came to town for an award shows for veterans, and since my friend cancelled the morning of our travel due to a work emergency (flood :/), I needed help to zip up my dress. I called the front desk and luckily there was a woman on staff that could come to my hotel room to help me. That was some nice customer service. it is a vintage but upscale hotel and I love the boutique feel.
Checked in someone else into our room, said there was no room service when there was suppose to be room service available. Small water bug in bathroom. Otherwise ok but will never go here again.
Very friendly boutique hotel conveniently located near the conference center.
Wonderful hotel with great location. Only complaint is the location of bathroom door
Always very clean and quiet. The service staff were cheerful, helpful and professional. The bed was nearly impossible too drag myself out of due to the 5 star comfort. But the best feature was the location. Very close to a not-so-busy metro stop, same line as the airport and Nationals Yard, and a short pleasant walk to the Smithsonians and National Mall.
Stayed here in 2014 while they were still doing construction. Even with the construction, my stay was fine. I didn't find the construction to be much of a convenience other than the look of the hotel.
Front desk staff were super friendly, and the hotel is located in a fantastic location. You're a quick run from the Washington mall and the heart of DC.
Morrison-Clark has become my home away from home in DC. I spent 7 nights last September and 10 nights this month on a business trip. The hotel is clean and elegant and the staff is very friendly. The rooms are a bit small and I wish there was a coffee machine in the room. It's a bit annoying to have to relog to the internet every day. I had breakfast at the restaurant every day, so I tried almost everything on the menu. The food is delicious and arrives quickly.
Mr Gadissa was a great Host. This man will go above and beyond to help his customer. He has great personality, great attitude and great customer service. He should get the Outstanding Customer Award hands down.
Top shelf hotel! Great room, bed, staff and location! Highly recommended!
Great stay. Amazing hotel. The amenities were pretty barebones. Room was beautiful and it was a great location. Everything was within walking distance.
Very nice establishment. Beautiful decor. Location is almost hidden as the exterior doesn't stand out, but in a good way. Food was delicious. Had their restaurant week menu. Selections being a chilled nectarine bisque, braised beef sloppy Joe, and a "duo of chocolate" dessert. Sooooo much food. I was full halfway through my entree. Bisque was new and refreshing, but i do not enjoy lavender, and ingredient in the center relish. Sloppy Joe set my new standard for need sandwiches. Truffle aioli was awesome. Dessert was good but I'm now realizing that I don't like chocolate like I once did. But nonetheless delicious. I'll be back for that sloppy Joe.
Historic themed decor, upscale dining. Specializing in Seafood and really big burgers. Extensive wine list and bar and bottle service. There is an old school charm to this place. Great for work dinner parties.
Really nice! Closet is pretty small, but besides that we had a great experience.
Amazing history and character out the wazoo. Wonderful staff attention too.
Stayed here with a friend. The facility is larger than you expect and has the service of a small hotel. the rooms are great, some may think on the smaller side, but was great for a weekend stay. so close to many things... white house, museums, the mall, restaurants convention center
This here is VALUE for your money an CUSTOMER SERVICE IS ON POINT & STAFF IS CLEAN along with HOTEL
Attended political event with Senator Rand Paul. Banquet room service was exceptionally good.
Beautiful hotel and rooms. Outstanding service. The rooms are very clean and the maids do a wonderful job each day. Quiet, well insulated rooms. Room service is fast, but overpriced with all of the fees added in. The doormen were a little pushy/too eager to help so I had to fight to hold onto my bags. I didn't feel like it was worth it to pay a tip for someone to lift a small bag literally a few steps away. These were so minor, and are outshined by the fantastic quality of this hotel. I'm very happy with my stay and plan to book here again for any future D.C. trips.
Beautiful inn with small comfortable rooms and helpful staff.
Booked this hotel from December 28 to December 31, only positive impressions!
We booked from Booking, but the flight was delayed and we were late for 1 day, Booking canceled our reservation and we were left without a number.
William helped us a lot, solved our problem, provided a number, it turned out even better than expected!
More such employees - an individual approach and a desire to help the client!
The hotel itself is clean and beautiful, the rooms are spacious, the beds are very comfortable, the room has everything you need!
Very helpful staff. Rooms are smaller but clean. Its closeness to the convention center makes it very attractive if you have a comference. Good value for money.
Lovely patio, decent-size room, bathroom a little weird (no lights in the shower). Overall, great value!
Fantastic hotel!! Beautiful inside. The staff is awesome! The front desk was great. The bellmen were so helpful and kind! We would definitely stay there again! Thank you for a wonderful time!
Hotel very central and at a good price, the rooms are a bit small, but the common areas are beautiful.
Nice room and arrival experience but the bellboy on checkout was incredibly rude. When asked to help with bags he had the nerve to say he only works for the tip . Well, if that s the case I will only pay the tip and forget about the room rate...
Excellent, clean, comfortable and very good location
Great value. Try to get a room on the courtyard. It's a lot quieter.
Historic hotel renovated with modern style. Own parking but with valet ... I don't know where the parking was. Expensive and not very varied breakfast. Friendly staff but don't speak Spanish
Great location. Within walking distance to many places, including metro HUB. Very clean, very friendly staff.
Most comfortable and soft bed I have ever slept in.
I had to cancel my reservation the day before check in due to a medical procedure that couldn't wait. They refused to refund any part of my fee or work with me at all. I will not take my business here again.
Well run, very clean botique hotel in downtown DC. Staff very friendly and attentive. Close to the Metro and the Mall. Just remodeled. Previous Historic residence and now hotel. ONLY knock is no coffee in the room or in the lobby. Have to go to in house restaurant and pay $2.50 per cup.
Im staying right naw, the room(superior queen) is very cozy and well equpped. No reason y i shouldnt stay here. No outside noise as i had 3rd floor, even dough it was chilly outside nd had window right next to the bed, it wasnt chilly at all as i wore a night gown.
Bathroom had lots of different towels fo me to use as i was stayin 2 nights nd dere is a big shower booth n a non stoppin hot water unlike other hotels.
Very friendly front clerks with good service. Dey were so nice. Nd a restaurant with reasonable price nd also very friendly servers.
Its quite close to white house n other areas. But u still hav to walk like 20 to 30 mins to get dere.
Its a pleasant stay. If i am coming back to dc again, im very willingly to stay at dis hotel again very much likely
