Pet-friendly Hotels in Washington D.C.

On Monday, May 30, Memorial Day, I purchased two day passes to the Ven's Rooftop pool. It was great weather and the DC public pools were, for the most part, closed. Rather than spend 2k+ on a pool membership in the region (cannot afford that), my son and I have set a goal to hit as many hotel rooftop pools that offer daypasses. The Ven was a nice experience. So, I could totally recommend the one-off visit to the pool and to check out the views of DC. Totally fun to see the Dupont circle Metro stop glass roof (being repaired) and a number of other cool buildings. Always a plus-- my son didn't bring any devices, so he read books and lounged by the pool. It's not really a great lap swimming pool there at the Ven. But, I once had someone teach me how to ”Aqua-jog” and no one there made me feel like I was an idiot for doing that. The package supposedly includes the hotel's gym. But that's in the basement of the hotel. It felt like it was a little understaffed at the hotel and I didn't feel comfortable asking for access. Anyway, I was there for the pool. I also was not offered my ”canned cocktail of choice.” I could have demanded it, but the very sweet gentleman tending the pool food bar/drinks was on his third day, and was a little befuddled that I didn't have a room number to charge things to. HOWEVER, I will admit, I tipped the gentleman and he helped us manuever getting two loungers. THAT WAS WORTH IT. He was super helpful. It was crowded and I was not excited about spending the day there sitting on benches. I asked and 20 minutes later he helped us make it work. THANK YOU. So, for a one-off-- totally worth it! Will I pay a monthly membership fee. Maybe not. Unless people somehow hook me up very clearly with that air hockey table...

The hotel is huge and one of the more affordable one around DC. The aircon in the room is a little noisy but the operation guy came and says that’s the way it is. I asked for kettle to boil water and it came quite quickly though. There’s a usd20 surcharge per room per night but you can offset by meals in the hotel. The front desk also provides bottled water FOC upon request. Overall an ok stay.

The location of the shop is not far from the Red Line subway Dupont station. There are small restaurants and bookstores next to the street. The hotel facilities are quite new and clean; the bedding is soft; the bathroom supplies daily in the room; the only thing that needs attention is the hot water and the conversion socket Fortunately, every morning there is hot coffee and water in the lobby, and newspapers are provided.

The design is better. The facilities are relatively new. The bathroom is relatively small. The floor aisle is darker.

My first room was ok until the lights started flickering and wouldn't turn off. The TV n remote then malfunctioned. So i went to the front desk and De'Angelo helped us. He sent a staff up top check it out. After thr engineer came up, he left to tell De'Angelo to switch or room. So they did, but only thing they had available was a downgraded room, so he put in some notes for us and got us comped a room with a balcony for out last night's stay. He and the night staff are excellent and he's only been here a short while. Now the day staff on other hand was terrible. Went t.i grint desk at 11 to inquire about our room upgrade, and was told it's being prepared, but we didn't get switched until about 4pm. We had an itinerary that we couldnt complete due to us waiting for our room switch. Also asked room service for 2 sets of silverware, and they brought them up about an hour and a half later, and also entered our room without notice while iwas in the shower. So when u come to the Watergate, your night experience will be way more enjoyable then dealing with day staff.

Close to Washington's main attractions, just north of the Lincoln Memorial, 15 minutes walk, within the Georgetown campus, the rooms are small, the facilities are neat, although the bunks, but It will not be a few days, and it will be there. There is a parking lot nearby to park, and it costs 21 US dollars a day. It is acceptable in a place like Washington. There is no breakfast in the hotel. Two streets are the Watergate Hotel and the office building. There are coffee shops and fast food restaurants in the sinking garden where you can have breakfast. It is also convenient.

The hotel is nice and the location was really good just a 5 min walk to the metro station. Check in and out was fast and easy and the employees are friendly. The only thing I have to criticize is that my room was dusty and in the shower on the shelf there was blue shampoo/shower gel leftovers from someone else, other than that the room made a clean impression.

Stayed here for 30 days and couldn't have asked for something better than this. I travel a lot, and all I can say is that I've never experienced a better/most luxurious lifestyle, until I got to the Dupont Circle Hotel. The staff is the most amazing/generous people I have come across. They remembered my name after the first night of me being there; the lobby always smells so luxurious; the amounts of chocolates given to me on daily basis was amazing; I can go on all day. Dupont Circle Hotel, you've won a customer for life. I can't thank you enough for everything!

The hotel is located a little distance from the city centre and there is a metro station nearby. There are supermarkets within 10 minutes walk and there are not many restaurants. The extra bed is folded, the bed is very soft and it is rare to have a night. The room is small and has a microwave and coffee machine. A deposit is required for hotel stays.

The breakfast was good, the room was spacious, the bed was comfortable, the coffee tasted good, there was no free pure water in the room. Free water and apples are only available in the lobby. I like the lobby, all kinds of sofas, and the decoration is beautiful and warm.
