I was in town for a convention and this is the location that was selected for our entire group. The hotel was nice.Room was a nice size, elevators seems able to handle the traffic of the groups pretty well. Ate at the ground level restaurant and thought the food was good for the price. Lots of peopole in our group sropped down every night! Located about 7 blocks from the convention center and JUST outside the metro and across from a large Macy's. Chinatown was just a few blocks away as well.

Marriott Metro Center serves its purposes as a hotel central to Metro Center in DC and in the middle of everything. The hotel itself has renovated the rooms and upgraded beds; however, the renovation is what I call a quicky-one where many potential features were left off the list. For example, the rooms continue to feature the old wooden furniture and lack LCD Tvs (you still have the armoire and dated tv taking up too much of the room). In addition, the lobby is in big time need of renovation (it appears to have not been renovated in maybe 30 years). Certain areas of the hotel need upgrades.

Gym is fine with a decent amount of equipment. The hotel staff was very professional - no issues here at all.

All and all, an ok experence and worth the stay if you can get a good rate.

I stayed 5 nights with my 12 year old neice -this was her 1st trip to Washington D.C.
The hotel room was quite large and had two queen size beds and the bathroom was clean and a nice size.
We did use room service and the food was hot and the food was excellant.
We did eat in the couple of the restaurants- the sea foof was excellant esp. the crab cakes but on the expensive side.
The concierge desk was not very helpful, the doorman and taxi cab drivers provided alot more information.The taxi from the Reagan airport was about 13-14 $ .
We did use the On and off Trolley which was easy to use and only a couple blocks away, the night tour was awesome and that comment was from the neice.
We did go to Georgetown and had a lovely time -we took a great boat tour for 90 mimutes.
We had a great time.

Excellent hotel in a superb location, located within a couple of minutes walk to the excellent Washington Metro Center and several top notch restaurants. In house restaurants although pricey were good. Breakfast was too expensive, hence 4 stars!
Rooms clean, well decorated and roomy however am now under pressure from partner to buy King Sized bed!
