We loved our stay. 4 miles from the Mall & museums. Very friendly hosts. Clean & quiet accommodations. Great residential neighborhood.

I stayed at the IGH on August 10, 2009 and had a wonderful experience. They offer various bits of information for people new to the area including maps and metro/metrobus schedules. There is breakfast in the morning where people can just sit and... read more

We stayed there for one night on 3/18/09. The short DC trip made us so tired, IGH was so cozy that we get enough rest. The staff were very nice and kind, beds were clean, and the environment was like back home. Yes it's a little bit north but we... read more

What an amazing find! We stayed for 3 nights and hope to get back in the spring. The staff was wonderful and the accommodations comfortable. It felt like home away from home. Highly recommended.

The Inn felt warm and cozy, a home away from home. The innkeepers and the staff were very humble and friendly people. The breakfast and the tea and cookie time were faboulous!....all HOME MADE!!!! I personally loved it!

I have stayed here 3-4 times and always been pleased with my visits. IGH is run by Mennonites but beyond a polite prayer before breakfast, religion is not discussed unless so desired. I have stayed at many hostels the world round and would describe... read more

This guest house is operated by a very friendly staff of resident volunteers. Breakfast and tea time is offered where socializing is encouraged. Breakfast is on a set schedule a begins with prayer. Choices are fairly limited to coffee, juice, bread... read more

For $35, it was a real bargain in DC. Just don't expect your own room, private bathrooms etc. The volunteers and staff are very friendly and helpful. While this place is run by a religious organization(Mennonite church), this only comes clear at... read more

I first stayed at the International Guest House in October, 2008, but this certainly won't be my last visit. This house is gorgeous, comfortable, spotlessly clean and well-maintained by a great group of volunteer hosts who provide home-made treats... read more

We had a lovely overnight stay at the International Guest House. I would certainly recommend it for anyone needing basic accommodations. And we will certainly book again. read more

This place is just really friendly and very reasonably priced. Unless you're a couple, you may share a room with the same gender, but the rooms are large and there are nice, clean bathrooms. Since the house is not too big, there is a a cozy family... read more

The volunteers here do everything to ensure you have a lovely stay. It is a bargain at 35 dollars a night, and the rooms are nothing like their hostel equivalents I've stayed in. The place is clean, the evening tea served is convivial and a good... read more

The folks at the IGH are super friendly and go out of their way to make sure that you are comfortable and feel welcome. Meeting other guests from all over the world and having scheduled times to connect with each other is a huge plus, as well!

If you do not expect anything fancy like a dream B&B then this is just for you. Inexpensive, neatly maintained place, extraordinary friendly service and good and hearty food. If you are travellers with these simple needs then this is the best... read more

I was so very delight with every aspect of my stay - the staff were engaging, helpful and kind; the rooms were lovely, and the community building times of group breakfast and evening teas were very special to me. I will return, and will recommend... read more

My words can not express the sincere gratitude and appreciation I felt for each staff person at the International Guest House. I felt nothing but kindness and consideration from the time I walked in the door until I left.
