Lyle Washington DC

The guest bedrooms at Lyle are comfortable and calming in neutral colors and feature natural materials including Burl wood art deco headboards, rattan seating and berber carpets. The mattresses and linens were chosen for ultimate comfort while artwork and the majority of furnishings are bespoke. The rooms feel inviting and residential, as do the bright bathrooms with their handmade tiles.

Stunning, friendly, upgraded home away from home

It's rare to find places where you would rather stay than in your home. Lyle is one of them. That's not only because of the convenient neighborhoody location, rooms, restaurant and bar downstairs, and workspaces, but also because of the people — Johnny, Gigi, Maria, Martha, and so many others — who make it such a welcoming home for me every time.

The receptionist was extremely helpful in arranging space at the parking place, and guide us all through the process of parking the car and getting our room. He was fluent in Spanish so made things much easier for us.

Hotel Hive was better than I ever could have expected! The staff was helpful and incredibly friendly. The rooms were clean, aesthetic, and exactly as described. Make sure to stop by the attached pizza place for a reasonably delicious meal option.

Great Location/Room/Staff

Reviewed By Illiterategenius

This is the type of hotel I like to stay in when I'm in DC. Just around the corner from several good neighborhoods, but not in the thick of the scenes. It's nothing flashy, but a good value. Parking is limited, and having to park next door is a drag but, other than that, it was a good stay. Shot out to Jonathan for the great service.

Room was great, and was stocked with everything I could need. Front desk service was exceptional — especially Aki and Nurten, they really went above and beyond to make me feel welcome by recommending restaurants in the area + letting me know to call the desk if I needed anything.

Everyone was helpful and friendly. They put out a breakfast for our tour group that was very tasty , every morning. The beds and pillows were so comfortable that we slept soundly every night. The atmosphere in the bar area was delightful and the happy hour drinks and sliders were wonderful. Would stay there again the next time I travel to D. C.

My favorite DC hotel

Reviewed By suemars

I've stayed at the Capitol Hill Hotel a few times mainly because of its perfect location and proximity to the Metro and local sites/restaurants. The service, the friendly staff, and the spacious rooms consistently exceed my expectations. Most recently, I stayed over Memorial Day weekend, and as usual, everything was wonderful - I was able to stop in for breakfast before starting off my day. My dog felt like a celebrity there and I'm sure she'd also like to return. I'll definitely be back the next time I am in DC.

My wife and I stayed the weekend and upon arriving home I realized I left my carry bag with ALL my personal effects inside; wallet, cell phone, etc… In speaking with Sarah L. at Guest Services, she diligently helped locate the bag; working with additional staff member Sofia she located my bag and routed it to security. All team members - Sarah, Sofia and the Security team made me feel assured through the process and expedited it calmly, quickly and efficiently… I couldn’t recommend this hotel enough! The room was terrific and the staff went above and beyond… Thank you Hotel Washington! A++!

Beautiful Location

Reviewed By dreamiiluvz

Absolutely stunning views and central location. We booked a king suite. Room was clean with everything we needed and the hotel was accommodating given that we had a toddler with us. Daily free breakfast was typical, but nice to have. Major downside was that the HVAC was SO loud in our suite. Even earplugs and sound machine didn't help. Our toddler would wake up crying when the HVAC turned on/off. Bed was comfy, but we did not sleep well.
