Melrose Georgetown Hotel

The Melrose is one of the best hotels I have stayed in. Situated about a five minute walk from the Foggy Bottom Metro and is also close to shops, eateries and two great bars (Marshall’s and ChamThai). About a 20-25 min walk to Lincoln Memorial and the White House. The Metro system is easy to use. Bar, restaurant and lobby area are stunning and the reception staff are brilliant. They are friendly, very professional and look after you well. We stayed in room 401 which was a king sized room. The room was massive with plenty room to walk around. Bed was very comfortable with sockets in the bedside tables (very convenient for mobile phones) and comfortable pillows. The bathroom was clean and tidy with a separate sink area outside next to wardrobe. Really liked this. In a morning between 7-10 free tea and coffee in lobby area and between 10-10 free flavoured water. This is an amazing hotel.

Shower curtain rail goes up at the sides meaning curtain doesn’t go to the edge. Floor gets soaked.

Delicious large American cooked breakfast served in classy restaurant. Metro 5 mins away and 5 stops from Smithsonian and National Mall. Location was pleasant leafy streets, near George Washington University. Very safe.

Room was spacious, beds comfortable and quiet located.

Great location

Noisy while staying in room 709. Sound like someone was pressure cleaning on/off all day and night. Fortunately we had sound machine to sleep. New Wall paper coming loose in room Breakfast was good but pricy $70 for two. I had coupon free breakfast but paid $20 for tip. No bar to hold onto to get in/out of bathtub shower. TV froze on channels until we ask to fix TV.
