The Jefferson, Washington, DC reviews
“Perfect in every way.”
LikedWe liked everything. The location, the staff, the restaurant, the bar, the room. Outstanding in every way.
“One of the best hotels I have ever exeperienced!”
LikedMy wife and I brought our little papillon dog to stay with us at The Jefferson for three nights, and we had an amazing stay! It was our first time staying here, and we will always choose to stay here whenever we are back in DC. Reasons to stay at The Jefferson: - They have the most professional and friendly staff that a hotel can offer to their guests. - It is a very short and easy walk to the White House, but just far enough away to where there aren’t any crowds of tourists passing by/lingering around the outside the front your hotel. - The lobby, common areas and our guest room were all spotlessly clean. - The quaint size of the hotel, combined with the timeless furniture/decor and original artwork hung on the walls, will make you feel as if you are guest staying in someone’s mansion . . . opposed to staying at a large chain hotel property. We cannot wait to come back again! Thank you for everything!
