Good business hotel with great facilities. Several dining options. Morning breakfast buffet at the Grand Cafe was fantastic, even if service was a bit lacking. Great food also in the Cure Bar and Bistro. Didn't eat in the deli or the sports bar but the menus looked good. Tour buses stop near the corner of the hotel, and there is a subway station at the hotel as well. I did the Old Town Trolley tour buses which have a good reputation, and the stop at the hotel is the last on a circuit so expect a wait. You can go a couple blocks over to catch the first stop. The hotel is very busy with groups as it is near the convention center area. Concierge will tell you that the mall is a 5 minute walk which is a stretch....it's probably more like 20, especially in the excessive heat we were experiencing during our visit. All hotels in this area of DC are very expensive. This is a good business hotel however and the interior public areas are beautiful and well kept. My room looked like it had just been refurbished. I got a "view" but the view was the side of a building. I understand that the interior rooms get more noise from the atrium area. If you want luxury, there's a Park Hyatt near Capitol Hill and a St.Regis where we have stayed before.
