Its stately setting on Capitol Hill is just the start of the ‘grandeur’ you can expect at Phoenix Park Hotel. A historic property that’s been treated to an $8 million makeover, this has all the sharp styling you’d expect from a hotel right at the heart of this modern metropolis, just a block from Union Station and a stroll from the top sights and shopping. The splendour starts the minute you step inside, with its elegant lobby dressed in mossy greens, uplifting blues, and the sparkle of its shimmering floor, chandeliers, and gold-daubed sweeping staircase. The dining here is more rousing than refined though – with its snug Irish pub, The Dubliner, outfitted with bottle-green walls and emerald leather bar stools, and bringing you all the classics, including fish and chips, Irish Beef Stew, Guinness, and even the odd Irish ‘jig’.

We spent four nights on the eighth floor of the hotel with a nice view of the National Postal Museum and Union Station. The hotel was a short walk from the Union Station Metro stop and a short walk to the US Capitol. There is a lounge on the second floor with coffee and other hot beverages open 24/7. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful, and they were happy to store our luggage before check-in time and after check-out time on our arrival and departure dates. The Dubliner Pub is adjacent to the hotel. It is a very popular place. There is also a restaurant/coffee shop called the Corner Bakery at the end of the block. We will definitely stay here the next time we visit DC.

I loved the Phoenix Park Hotel. It's a classy old hotel with a gracious staff. It's a convenient walk from Union Station and a stone's throw from the Capital and the National Mall. It houses the wonderful Dubliner Pub
Fabulous hotel for so many reasons.

Great staff, stunning hotel. Room was beautifully presented and exceptionally clean. We asked for extra towels and they arrived within minutes.
Check in was prompt and uncomplicated. Great location.
My family and I spent 9 days in the USA and this was the best hotel we stayed at. 100% recommend!!
Awesome but need a tad bit more

Unlike many cities around the world where hotels in train station neighborhoods are dubious at best, Phoenix Park is a beautifully restored and maintained historic property with excellent service and facilities. Union Station with its many transport options is a stone’s throw away. The Capitol and beginning of the mall and its museums are a short, safe walk. Staff are both efficient and friendly, all is spotlessly clean, beds are comfortable, linens and towels high quality, climate control and hot water as it should be. A special plus is the second floor complimentary coffee lounge, including good espresso. Highly recommended.
