    The staff and the service is really the standout feature of this hotel. Room is elegant and classic. You’ll have to cross the road to use the gym but it the UC is the fanciest gym in the city.

    I had a wonderful stay at The Jefferson Hotel! The property is utterly impeccable clean, stylish, and full of charm. Beyond how beautiful the hotel is, the staff was fantastic from start to finish. Everyone went out of their way to make me/us feel welcome and cared for. If you're looking for top tier service and a spotless stay in D.C., this is the place.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Nice property service is excellent, but Washington DC that area smells like a sewer

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Great location. Understated. Tiny room for the price point.

    The Jefferson provided my wife and I a wonderful stay. The restaurant and bar service were wonderful

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Beautiful hotel and amazing staff! Great location and the Quill bar was exceptional. Only complaints are the size of the bathrooms and lack of bathroom amenities.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Charming hotel and very friendly staff especially during check-in. My one and only complaint is how noisy my stay was. I highly recommend asking for a room far away from the house-keeping closet space because they are constantly in and out and shutting doors at all hours of the day. The doors to the rooms need to be sealed better but I understand it's an older hotel.
