Booked this at the last minute and wasn't quite sure what I'd find judging by previous reviews. We checked in at about 1:30 am following a long traffic-filled trip. The front desk was welcoming, courteous and accommodating. Things only improved from there. Our room was large, spotlessly clean, well appointed and had the king-sized bed I'd requested. The furnishings while not brand new, were stylish and comfortable. The one slight was being left without bath towels following housekeeping services. A call to them resulted in warm towels delivered to our door within minutes. Cannot comment as to food as the location of this hotel allows great access to all of downtown's offerings. The metro is about 3 blocks away and the concierge is on hand with all necessary advice and tips. Better bet is to lace up and hit the beautiful trails all around the mall.

The property was beautiful but rooms very small - the air was controlled by downstairs and we were very hot every night - they sent up a fan but we still had to keep windows open. The staff was excellent and very accomodating. I wouldn't stay there again and we always stay at Hiltons - Washington was a beautiful city and we would visit again!!!!

The room was big and very clean. Beds very comfortable. Bathroom was very nice. Location of the hotel is perfect; very close to several different Metro lines. All staff that we encountered were friendly and helpful. We didn't eat in the hotel, so I can't comment on the food. All in all, we had no complaints, and a wonderful stay.

Certain staff members at this hotel monitor what websites the guests are visiting in the privacy of their own rooms & they use blocking software to block any site they find morally objectionable. I find such an intrusion offensive and contrary to a persons right of free speech. With the outrageous rates they charge they should be glad to fill any rooms, and what a guest views online in private should be kept private.

I had the chance to attend a conference put on at the Hilton Capital during the weekend of Halloween 2008. The staff was alway very nice and helpful. The rooms are small for the price paid, but location, location I guess. Had the chance to eat one morning in the Twigs at the buffet. It was nice, good food but very expensive as hotel food can be. Went off site to eat all dinners and lunch was provided in conference. All in all the hotel was very nice.
