Pleasant stay at The Ven

We had a very good experience at The Ven. Staff was very friendly, room was comfortable and clean. We asked for a room away from Mass Ave - because of potential noise - and the were able to accommodate us so the room was quiet. They even serviced the room for us on one day.

We had a very good experience at The Ven. Staff was very friendly, room was comfortable and clean. We asked for a room away from Mass Ave - because of potential noise - and the were able to accommodate us so the room was quiet. They even serviced the room for us on one day. Frankly, I had read some reviews elsewhere that were critical; that certainly was not the case for our stay. I would stay there again when in DC. Desk staff were able to recommend two very good restaurants within walking distance. Even the morning coffee in the bar was good; we did have breakfast sandwiches there that were only so so.

Good Vibes

Helen was an extremely helpful front desk agent! Rooms were clean and comfortable. Food is decent. The interiors can be slightly dated. Rooms are carpeted. Leather bed backing and upholstery was clean. Provided shampoo and body wash is citrus scented from NEST NYC in case anyone has allergies.
Fantastic location for a tourist break.

It's always a lottery picking a location for a city break but we couldn't believe our luck when booking this hotel. Not only are the rooms, hotel facilities and staff really good but the metro station is very close and the hotel is surrounded by excellent restaurants and places to eat. If you don't fancy walking to see the sights ignore the expensive tourist hop on/off buses and buy a metro pass. You're never far from a station and It's cheap and easy to reach all the tourist attractions and areas of interest. The US is now a very expensive destination for UK visitors when eating out particularly with the ridiculous tipping regime so consider the Hotel's inclusive breakfast package which is great value for money.

The Ven at the embassy
Nov 27, 2024Shane H
The Ven at the embassy was great. The 24 hour art gallery was a very nice touch as well. Mt girlfriwnd jelt her friendship bracelet on the whole time. However the start for my gifriend and I was Eli at the front desk. He was funny and helped us with where to find things near by. Get him a raise!!
Great location and superb service

Absolutely great value for money - probably the best since the end of the pandemic we enjoyed in any big city. Staff very friendly and professional throughout the entire stay. Have the point out the great job that housekeeping is doing - way above what you get at other (more expensive and luxurious) hotels. The room was fancy - very "cool" layout…

Absolutely great value for money - probably the best since the end of the pandemic we enjoyed in any big city. Staff very friendly and professional throughout the entire stay. Have the point out the great job that housekeeping is doing - way above what you get at other (more expensive and luxurious) hotels. The room was fancy - very "cool" layout and decor - we loved it. Great looks but still superbly functional. Breakfast: casual atmosphere but superbly fresh produce on the menu. Location: a couple minutes away from the subway station so anything you want to visit in D.C. is within reach. Will certainly go back to the Ven.
