I stayed at the Beacon Hotel during a business trip in DC. The hotel is overall not that special, and I was not impressed by the facilities. I booked the hotel through a special offer online and I could access a very discounted rate. Otherwise, I would have considered the hotel not worth my money. The hotel is famous for its restaurant and bar with a very nice design and view, but I did not experience. What I saw: rooms are rather small and the lobby is super small. Not in the range of high quality hotels with which it is supposed to compete. Employees working at the lobby are very friendly and nice. However, when I arrived, my bathroom had not been properly cleaned, and it took forever to ask the management to send somebody. I finally cleaned it myself. The best thing for this hotel is the great location, very close from the Embassy area and not far from Dupont Circle. Book it if you have a good rate, otherwise look for something else.
