Guest Reviews
The staff was so courteous and proactive, it warmed me up. Cant find anything to complain about even if I tried. The room service also, so prompt, the food was so delicious.
Definitely a place to come back to.
It was my first time staying at this property and I was not expecting anything but to my surprise I found friendly staff, clean rooms and a great atmosphere..I am glad we chose this hotel for our weekend vacation.
I absolutely loved my stay and dining experience! I can’t wait to return in the Spring!
Great experience and excellent service ..they provided every bit of information I needed for my itinerary .. highly recommend
We enjoyed our recent stay at the Sofitel Washington DC. The service was top notch. Our room was well appointed and comfortable. Highly recommended.
We truly loved our stay at the Sofitel! If you’re looking for a spot that perfectly balances a sophisticated atmosphere with an unbeatable location, this is it. We spent our days touring the major DC attractions, and it was such a relief how easy it was to access everything from the hotel. After a long day of sightseeing, coming back to the beautiful ambiance here felt like a treat. We’ve already decided we’ll be back—we truly enjoyed every bit of our stay!
Very professional staff and very neat and clean room.
The cleanliness was very noticeable, rooms were spacious. Great atmosphere all around. Keep up the good work!
Excellent service, Great experience! Will definitely visit again.
I had an absolutely wonderful stay! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel genuinely welcome. The room was spotless and incredibly comfortable. The location was ideal.
I highly recommend visiting the staff is excellent.
Great service, and very convenient location in main DC.
My stay at Sofitel was remarkable. The front desk staff was very understanding and helpful with my late arrival.
Room service was great and really liked the ambiance of this hotel.
Over all it was a great experience.
The best place in DC. The location is unbeatable.

Impeccable service day and night by the staff, and outstanding lodging. Gym a trifle small, but with fine machines. Highly convenient location.
Friendly & welcoming with very comfortable room. The bar & restaurant had good food, excellent drinks menu and charming service.
Handy location for both my meetings and the White House. Certainly happy to come back again.
From the moment Jerusalem began checking me in until the time I checked out, my experience at the Sofitel Washington DC Lafayette Square was excellent.
I dined at the hotel restaurant both nights of my stay and highly recommend the mushroom risotto and the half chicken—both were genuinely memorable. The cocktail bar is top-notch, and the bartenders made the best pisco sour I’ve ever had.
Every member of the staff I encountered was extraordinarily pleasant and attentive. I was upgraded to a larger room facing the street, yet the soundproofing was so good that I never heard traffic. The blackout drapes were excellent, keeping the room dark and quiet for sleeping, and—blessedly—the thermostat actually allowed the room to cool to 65 degrees, which made for a truly comfortable night’s sleep.
Five out of five. I will absolutely stay here again.
Juan Pablo Rodriguez at the the front desk, took this hotel and elevated to the premier hotel it is. The kindness and accommodability of the staff went above and beyond your wildest expectations. It is truly a hotel that makes working with the White House and surrounding areas a breeze. You are steps away from the White House and the hotel lends itself to private meetings and Teams meetings.
This is not a luxury hotel. Sofitel should be embarrassed to have their name on this hotel. The rooms are old, dirty and our bed sagged in the middle. They never refreshed our coffee, toilet paper or water, had to call down for it. The restaurant and bar closes at 10:00 pm and there are no there options lime a gift shop to purchase food and beverage.
Lovely stay at this hotel. The staff are warm and accommodating. Elsadig and Constance at the front desk provided exceptional service. They ran a special promotion and I won a $50 food and beverage credit during my stay. They also let my friend participate and the urban few was waived during the stay. The food at the restaurants is delicious. I met Chef Kevin and he walked me through the curated menu and sent out a complimentary dish. Martha and Jose were my servers and were prompt and respectful. The happy hour has a live jazz band which provided a nice backdrop for conversation and enjoying a nice tea or drink. The Balmain products in the rooms are refreshing and soothing. The beds are super comfy and I like the red and black decor. Offers a sexy and relaxing ambiance. The gym in the building is equipped. One machine was not working but it didn’t hinder my workout and there was plenty equipment to use. If you stay during the holiday, there may be a small line for breakfast but it moves quickly and the food is worth the wait. Lastly, the proximity to the national mall makes for convenient access to tours and site seeing.
