What guests think

At Hotel Lombardy, travelers consistently praise the warm, attentive staff and the convenient, walkable location near GWU, the White House, and Metro stops, while noting the hotel’s historic character with comfortable, often spacious rooms and a cozy bar-restaurant.

Many reviews highlight very clean rooms and suites; however, some report plumbing and outlet issues, dated or limited TVs, intermittent Wi‑Fi, and occasional street or alley noise, plus small elevators typical of the building’s age. Dining draws frequent compliments for breakfast, the intimate bar, and service, though a few guests found prices high or waits slow. Valet parking is available but can be expensive, and amenities beyond the restaurant and bar are fairly modest. Expect classic charm, friendly service, and comfort with a few old‑building trade‑offs.

Exceeded expectations. Clean, comfortable, unique. Loved the friendly service all around - especially the door man! The cozy hidden bar in the back was a special treat, with the warm fire, comfortable seating, and lovely service. Wouldn’t change a thing - a unique, affordable, and classy stay.

The building has historic 1920s charm. The hallways were dimly lit (kinda creepy) and the bathroom area was uncomfortably humid. Good location and service, though. The restaurant is overpriced and there was only one server for a full dining room so it took forever.

Check-in was very basic, and we weren’t informed about essential things like Wi-Fi access or breakfast details. The room felt quite worn down, and several things didn’t work properly. Facilities were also very limited. For example, the gym was poorly equipped. We paid 400 dollars per night, and unfortunately, it just wasn’t worth the money.

Nice size of rooms, separate living room and bedroom. Very quiet, clean and excellent location. Walked to see Whitehouse with my 8 yr daughter. There's a shopping store nearby (whole foods). Plenty to see and do. I highly recommend staying here. We had a car that we parked in a public parking garage near the hotel. The hotel parking is very expensive $60 per day. The pub parking is half that price. Ideally you should Uber, no need for car in this part of the city.

Loved the hotel. People need to be aware that the elevators are small in case they might be claustrophobic. one elevator holds 6-8 people and the other elevator will hold 4 but not comfortably. I'm not claustrophobic but felt like I was in a small box.

Have stayed here in the past and I was aware Hotel is older but enjoyed my previous stay. Decided to stay here again but this time around the experience was unpleasant, the TV wasn’t working, mini fridge was dirty with previous’ guest old food I want to say it was, but not sure, didn’t request to switch rooms because they were very accommodating and allowed me to check in early after a long early flight and had already unpacked by the time I noticed everything. Won’t be repeating the stay even though is super convenient as it’s next to work when I travel to DC.

Hotel Lombardy was disappointing. If you're looking to encounter insect wildlife in your bed, this is the place for you. My fiancé developed several large red spots on his foot and couldn’t sleep for even an hour due to irritation and a rash from the bugs. Additionally, there was no refrigerator in our unit, and we were informed that only two units on that floor lacked one. The only positive note: the outdoor staff, particularly the valet, were nice and respectful. I hope everyone has a nice stay there, unlike the experience we had.

Thr bathroom was very roomy, if a little dated. I live that there is a separation for shower/toilet and sink area and they is plenty of counter space. I like that they gave us water bottles. Our view out to the street was nice! The breakfast in the restaurant was really delicious and the decor made me feel as though I were in Morocco. The music was 40s ans 50s which added to the ambiance. The whole vibe of the hotel made me feel like I was in a time past which I absolutely loved. The location was great. We were able to walk many places. It was reasonably priced. We would definitely stay here again!!

We recently stayed at Hotel Lombardy in Washington, D.C. and had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the staff was extremely helpful and kind throughout our stay, which we truly appreciated. However, the hotel itself feels very outdated—perhaps understandably so, given that it is a historic property. The furniture and room accessories are quite old-fashioned, and the air conditioner was very noisy. It was so loud that we had to turn it off during the night because we simply couldn’t sleep with it on. Our room was on the second floor, and we could clearly hear the street noise from outside, which made it difficult to rest. Additionally, the room, bathroom, and shower were all rather small, and again, everything inside looked quite dated. While the charm of a historic hotel can be appealing to some, we felt that certain updates—especially to the furniture and infrastructure—are long overdue.

Love The Lombardy. Have stayed there numerous times. However, this room - 413 - does not have a full length mirror, so I had to stand in the bed to get something close to a full length view. Also, the electric outlet in the bathroom needs to be replaced; it’s loose and does not securely hold an appliance prong.

I handed in my laundry, but even after three days, it hadn’t come back. Despite repeatedly asking the front desk to look into the matter, they were unable to locate it. It was only at check-out that we discovered it had been delivered to a different hotel. In the end, the laundry was safely returned to me, but I wish appropriate action had been taken sooner.

They took pride in their building, saw a gentleman constantly buffing the poles that held up the exterior awning! They held doors for us, always greeted us with a smile. The room was spotless, spacious and very comfortable. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the waitstaff and bar tender were superb. The location was convenient, between 2 Metro lines and not an excessively long walk to see local sites. We used Lyft a couple of times and never waited more than 5 minutes. Over all an excellent experience, thank you to all!!

Check in was nice. We had a super friendly staff member help us with our luggage. After a late dinner we returned to the room and our tv was not working. A staff member came up and couldn’t fix it so he called front desk clerk to see if tv could be switched out. Clerk said “No. That can’t be done and I gotta go I have another call”. Nothing was done. In the morning we notified the manager and she said “Well, tv’s can’t be switched.” And this was our first and last time staying here.

The Hotel is really cool and has a lot of history. The staff were fantastic and took really good care of us. We arrived early and they found another room for us as ours wasn't ready yet so we unpack and go about our day. We had an issue with our AC making noise the first night and, not wanting to complain because they had been so accommodating, I asked if they could fix it while we were out for the day. They couldn't fix it, but when we got back at the end of the day, they made arrangements for us to move to an upgraded room. All in all, they went out of thier way to make us comfortable from the time we arrived at the hotel to the time we left to go to the airport. I highly recommend the Lombardy and will stay there again the next time we are in DC!

We were 15 minutes walk from the White House. The sights were easily accessible on foot. (We are Brits and we like to walk around). We felt very safe in the area.

My husband's breakfast order was wrong but he didn't realize until he started eating it.

Proximity to GWU makes it an automatic for visiting parents. Hotel is beautiful, old school, the rooms are large and the bathrooms have the best showers. The Four Five Coffee shop moved in two doors down which only makes staying at the hotel better. The hotel staff are all excellent, caring, and personally engaged to ensure a comfortable stay. Skip the onsite restaurant as there are plenty of much better options within easy walking distance (North Italia, Toryumon, Tatte, Circa).
