Frommer's Review

This hotel gets high marks for convenience (it's right on Dupont Circle), service, and comfort. A thorough renovation in 2009 put an urban-chic spin on guest room appearance and amenities. Expect spa-style bathrooms with heated marble floors and Kohler rain shower heads equipped with body massage features; luxurious pillow-top mattresses with down comforters, duvet covers, and bolster pillows; and LG flatscreen televisions. Each of the large rooms is furnished with either a king-size bed or two double beds with firm mattresses, a desk, and a minibar. Despite its prime location in a sometimes-raucous neighborhood, the hotel's rooms are insulated from the noise. The hotel's restaurant, Café Dupont, provides a perfect spot to slurp a cosmo and dine on seared red snapper, while watching an entertaining cast of Dupont Circle characters pass by. Check the hotel's website for lowest rates.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
