The hotel billing was very discourteous. I was a speaker at a conference in December, and reservations were made for me. I thought that the conference organizers were paying for the entire conference. When I checked out, they said I owed $13 for the internet, which I paid by credit card, and the people at the front desk told me... more

The hotel lobby was beautiful, and the rooms were large and clean. very small bathrooms. We arrived late at night, and there was no space to self park, we had to use the valet. There was no bellman available, so we had to unload the car ourselves, along with the front desk person, and carry our luggage down stairs because... more

My daughter and I stayed at the Omni Shoreham from July 9-14. After reading reviews I too was a bit nervous. We took the metro to the hotel and had a short walk to the Omni from the Woodley-Park stop. We arrived about 10:00 am and our room was ready. Our room was WONDERFUL. It was clean and spacious. Huge... more

Hotel dates to the 1930s and has a lot of history (political events including Clinton's Inaug. Ball, movies filmed there, etc.) -- very large hotel with large lobby. You can tell the by the rooms that it's an older hotel in that our king room was very large, bathroom somewhat small, but had a huge walk-in closet and a large... more

Our family stayed only one night at the Omni. It was free for us as we used our Membership Rewards points through American Express. I was nervous reading the negative reviews, but thought since it's free I'll suffer through. We used the check-in from home link emailed to us. We walked right past the line at the front desk and... more

I was in town for a conference. I had never stayed at the Omni in Washington DC. I used to travel extensively and have stayed in the worst hotels in the smallest towns and some of the best hotels in some of the nation's largest towns. I had high expectations for the Omni. I arrived on a Sunday for a... more

Stayed at this hotel for four nights five days attending a conference. The building has a lot of historical character and the public rooms are beautifully decorated. There are food options...a convenient light food carry-out shop named Morsels (convenient and $$$$) in addition to the restaurant, Robert's. If you are driving, parking is valet only and it is $$$. The... more

My friend and I arrived early and they said they would call our cell when our room was ready. We asked for a nice room with a view- the front desk said no problem. When we came back later in the day when our room was ready, they gave us a room with NO view just a big green box... more

We got a good deal via travelzoo.com for $100/night and would stay here again. It was only two blocks from the metro and quite a few restaurants. If you go over the bridge a few extra blocks, there is a very lively scene with such eclectic restaurants and people. The hotel was quite large but the signage was pretty good,... more
