    I have been staying at the Inn at DuPont Circle at least once a year since 2006. I love it. The rates are very reasonable. It is located within very easy Metro or walking distance from all of the major locations in and around DC. The neighborhood is quite safe; I feel very comfortable coming and going alone after dark. The breakfasts are incredible! If you go away from the breakfast table hungry, you just were not trying! Carolyn and her staff make you feel welcome...and if you keep coming back, you start to feel like family.


    Really good reception through the stay

    Very friendly and welcoming place. The breakfast was really outstanding with great personal service; as in asking if I wanted more bacon even if I was the only one at the breakfast, if I wanted an omelette, if I wanted them to open breakfast earlier than announced. My room was the Nook room, the cheapest one and it met my expectations (a small room with a bed, refrigerator, TV and AC), good value for the price. I'll return if I get the chance. /HG

    Why stay in an expensive Hotel when you have The Inn at Dupont Circle? The Inn is located in vary active "hip" part of DC with shops, dinning and the Metro just a few steps away. The inkeeper was more than helpful with local information and prepared a cook-to-order breakfast each morning. The room was clean and met all of our needs. Most importantly, we felt very safe. No need to bring your car because the Metro will drop you off 100 yards from the front door. We elected to drive (never again!) and was surprised to have the inkeeper personnaly escort us to their spaces in a nearby garage where we parked our car for $15.00 a day-a very fair price for that area. Our overall experience was fantastic and we would definitely stay there again.
