Hamilton Crowne Plaza

Frommer's Review

This is a well-placed hotel, sort of central between the two sections of downtown: the K Street side and the revitalized Penn Quarter neighborhood surrounding the Verizon Center. The hotel's restaurant is popular with office workers at weekday lunch, thanks to a generous buffet of soups, salads, and rotisserie items, for $19. Guest rooms feature CD players, handsome royal blue robes, dark wood armoires and headboards, and comfortable accommodations like the seven-layer bed. Rooms are rather small, so those with king-size beds feel a bit tight, those with two double beds a little roomier. K Street-side rooms overlook Franklin Park, which is pleasant, and those on the upper floors offer views of the city skyline. In keeping with the times, the hotel has a designated "women's floor," accessible only to those with a special elevator key. The newly upgraded fitness center offers cardiovascular machines with built-in televisions, treadmills, and elliptical equipment.
