My husband and I stayed at this beautiful hotel back in March on our first trip to Washington, DC. We were celebrating our anniversary and we wanted to make it a special stay so we booked this hotel and we are so glad we did. The building is absolutely gorgueous, the staff was really friendly (our first inclination was that we wouldnt be treated as well as people with alot of money would, however we were proven wrong). The concierge was super helpful with dinner reservations and the door man was always attentive. The rooms were awsome. Very clean and very roomy, our view was amazing and the bathroom was beautiful. The only negative thing i can say about it is the no flat sheet thing, not sure the reasoning behind that. We did not try the restaurants only because we had other places we wanted to check out around the city. However we did order room service a few times and the food was very good. We did go to Mortins Steakhouse and we loved every bite of it. There is a starbucks down the street and a few delis as well. The only other issue we had was having to pay for valet parking, although parking is at a premium in the city, considering the price per night they could have included that for no extra charge. I guess you pay for convinience! I would def stay here again if i could afford it and i would def stay at another sofitel hotel!
It is alot easier to show pictures then explain in detail what it all looked like so I've included pictures with captions. Hope this review helps!

I loved this hotel. My husband and I spent three wonderful days here. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. We had late night drinks at the bar on several occasions; had a late night dinner in their restaurant; and ate breakfast each morning, also in the bar. Each time was perfect. Great drinks, food, coffee, croissants. The location was ideal to explore all the Washington sights. We did a lot of walking and also made use of the nearby subway. Though this is hardly an inexpensive place, it was a delight. We even met the French ambassador during our stay. There are a lot of French people who not only work at the hotel, but stay at the hotel. The room was large and nicely decorated. Would stay here again...absolutely.

Got a great deal here on priceline.com
The room was beautiful- very clean and modern with extremely comfortable bed. This was the best hotel I have ever stayed in. The shower was also wonderful.

Just spent 5 days at this hotel - it was incredibly convenient - right near the White House - the staff was incredible - especially the consierge - he went out of his way to help us. 1/2 price on week-ends so it was a real deal for the price.
