    Great place to set up shop and explore the city. Within walking distance to all the sights with the nearby option of taking a bus. Keith was very helpful and courteous. We enjoyed our stay!

    Tranquility in DC

    September 14, 2012

    Spent the last week in August at Mt. Vernon Square Bed & Breakfast (my second stay), and once again found it to be a most peaceful "home away from home." It is a quietly elegant place to stay. We stayed in the spacious State Room, with a very clean on suite bathroom and a comfortable king sized bed. Host Keith, with the assistance of Glenda and Oscar provided delicious, hot breakfasts each morning. The warm combination of food aromas, classical music or jazz playing and interesting bits of conversation with other guests, made for an easy, lovely start to our days spent in DC. Happily, we found that Mt. Vernon Square's generous breakfasts held us until early dinner. Keith sets just the right tone of being welcoming, friendly and non-intrusive. He offers helpful information about the surrounding area and provides guests with suggestions for must see places in DC. Keith and his staff are genuinely gracious people and made our DC trip a true pleasure! T. Myers, Yonkers, NY

    Excellent Choice

    February 01, 2012

    The Mt. Vernon Square B&B is a reasonably priced alternative to expensive DC hotel rooms. Lydia & Keith have done a great job with this 100+ year old beauty. I enjoyed breakfast, both the food and the conversation with other guests. I will be back soon.

    Mount Vernon Bed and Breakfast

    January 20, 2012

    MY husband and I recently had the lovely experience of spending four nights at The Mt Vernon Bed and Breakfast in Washington DC. Keith, our host, was extremely friendly and helpful as well as a terrific breakfastchef; he truly gave us the feeling of being guests in his home and what a beautiful home it is, with magnificent stained glass and an interesting decor. Rooms are large and we even had a double jacuzzi and a comfortable king size bed. The location of the inn couldn't be more convenient; we expected to be using the metro and cabs but found that we were easily able to get to all of the sights on foot. Good dining options were readily available and Keith made wonderful suggestions. There is also parking available for a small additional fee. My husband and I wouldn't consider staying anywhere else the next time we visit DC.

    Wonderful place to stay!

    December 22, 2011

    Stayed with Keith and Lydia during our honeymoon and from the moment we stepped up to the door till the time we left we felt like family. Wonderful breakfasts, enjoyable conversation and the room was perfect. We stayed in the Terrace room and loved the private balcony overlooking DC. We could see the top of the Capital building even. While there is some street noise it did end up being quite amusing after we got used to it. But all of that going on you still sleep great. The bed is comfortable, LOVED the throw blanket ;) and the shower was heavenly after walking around taking in the sights. We would positively stay there again!

    Fantastic visit from Philly

    November 26, 2011

    My husband and I stayed at Mt. Vernon Square B&B for a long weekend in Nov. 2011. The property was nice, clean, and had interesting stained glass, wood floors, etc. We stayed in the Cleopatra room on the 3rd floor, which had a king-sized bed and an attached bathroom. Keith and Lydia were excellent and knowledgable hosts. Breakfast was really good and there were always other engaging guests from other parts of the US to talk with each morning. I would definitely recommend this B&B and will personally stay here again myself.

    Mt. Verone Square Bed & Breakfast

    November 24, 2011

    Keith and Lydia were fabulous! Lydia drove us to the main office where we purchased our subway tickets. They were so helpful. The subway is three blocks from their home. We walked home from the Washington Mall one day as their B&B was not far from downtown DC. The breakfast's were out of the world. Lydia shared recipes with us and we sent her recipes after we returned home. This was only our second time in a B&B and we were charmed with their home and accommodations.
