Terrific location - near all sorts of restaurants. On Logan Circle, ( named after Gen John Logan) who intiated Decoration Day ( now Memorial Day. We had a lovely Victorian room - not full of 'stuff' but crisp and bright. Comfortable bed and a very good breakfast every morning - including ' real oatmeal' when I did not opt for... More

Stayed here for a meeting at the Convention Center, which was a mere 10-15 minute walk away. This whole neighbourhood is quite different from when I lived in the District in the late 90s -- much safer and significantly gentified. Not right on top of a Metro station, but a reasonable walk to 3 different stations. Front door is a... More

Thanks so much for the nice words. N.b.: fewer people notice the street sounds in the warm-weather months because the air-conditioner does an excellent job of masking just about everything. Re breakfasts: not sure how many days this guest stayed with us, but we make something fresh and different every morning, generally varying between sweet (pancakes, Belgian waffles, etc.) and...

I spent a weekend at the Chester A Arthur House and really enjoyed my stay. The house is lovely, warm and tastefully decorated. The location was great, centrally located and across the street from a beautiful park. Logan Circle itself is lovely; i enjoyed walking there in the mornings. My room was large and comfortable and I slept very well... More

I stayed here for three nights in April, and it was a very positive experience. The room was large and comfortable, the house is historic and in a fantastic location, the breakfast was tasty, and I slept great while I was there. The house is close to Whole Foods and all kinds of new restaurants. Apparently Logan Circle is a... More

We recently spent a week at the Chester A. Arthur house and really enjoyed our stay. The location is very convenient to the major attractions in DC. 1 1/2 blocks to two different bus lines that go directly to the Smithsonian/Mall, a quick couple blocks through Logan Circle to P Street full of restaurants and a Whole Foods, and a...

WE spent 2 night at the Chester Arthur House and really fell for it. It's attractive outside and inside, with most of its original structure (wooden staircase, pocket doors) and authentic Victorian furnishings lovingly cared for. There is a wonderful homey feeling in every room. Carl welcomed us and kindly explained all we wanted to know about the house, the... More

We stayed here for two nights in early April 2013. The location is good but apart from that, this place has nothing to recommend it. It was overpriced (US$245 with taxes per night for one room) and under-serviced. We were greeted by Carl (or Eric?) when we arrived and then saw no-one until we checked out. We were not given...

We always look negative reviews over carefully and ask ourselves what we can do to improve our offerings. But this one is so out of line with the vast majority of our other reviews that it makes us wonder. A few facts: (1) Their per-night rate was about half what a typical hotel room in downtown DC would have cost... More

I wanted to like this place, so I will give the pluses first -- it is conveniently located (on Logan Circle), the house is very attractive from the outside, my room was large, and the two men who are there on alternate days are very friendly. Breakfasts were good, although the quantity of food available was modest. However, the negatives... More

We are sorry we did not live up to this guest’s expectations. We’ve read this review over several times in hopes of finding something we could fix on our end. In our 18 years of operation this is the first complaint we’ve had about the amounts of breakfast food served. We prepare more than enough for the guests attending our... More

We travel to DC a couple time per year to see our college student son. Have stayed in various locales, but not this one. We stayed 3 nights. This was very convenient for going downtown to the "sites" or getting to the metro to go elsewhere. Use the bus system! It gets you a lot of places the train doesn't.... More
