A nice stay!
A standard CitizenM stay - the most comfortable bed in any hotel in a small but functional room. This one is no different. The bar staff in particular were really friendly and attentive. Only thing to note for tourists, this is not far from the National Mall but it’s on the wrong side of it in terms of attractions or even things like a convenience store. Area is quite empty.

This is an outstanding place to stay in Washington. The location is excellent, making it easy to walk to all the main tourist attractions, and the neighborhood is incredibly safe and quiet. We walked everywhere with no issues. The hotel itself is extremely modern, the bar offers a fantastic selection of drinks, and the food is exceptional. We even ordered pizza at 11 PM, and it was delicious! The breakfast buffet is extensive and satisfying. The staff is the nicest I've ever encountered. I will absolutely be staying here again.

Cool, Clean, Comfy and Modern
My stay at citizenM was perfect! I was in town for a concert at The Anthem and just needed an affordable, comfortable, clean and convenient place to stay the night. The check-in/out process was super easy as they primarily use kiosks. The room was renovated, modern, comfortable and full of useful tech. Some of the tech (automated shades, lights, TV control, custom ambient lighting, etc) was a little overwhelming when late at night/impaired... but ultimately it was a very cool touch that I barely got the opportunity to fully explore.

Hi tech place
Nice hotel and location. Only issue was all the technology in the room: iPad controls for TV, lights, blinds. At one point a room switches were not turning on lights and blinds were going up automatically. They had to ‘re-boot” the room

This hotel was great for three things: cost to stay, cleanliness and comfortable beds. A warning though--the hotel itself is geared to a younger demographic. We found it difficult to figure out how to use the elevator and that we needed to use the iPad to control the tv and climate. Sitting in the lounge off the lobby the music is very loud and they won't turn it down. The hotel is also located in an area of the city where nothing is open after six pm which was frustrating for people who arrive at 7 pm. Although I do recommend Z Burger around the corner (the chicken sandwich and milkshakes are phenomenal). The hotel is about a 2 km walk from the mall but a block over is the metro which was very convenient. Overall, it was comfortable and affordable but a little frustrating for my husband and I. We heard the same complaint from a few other people of our generation while waiting in the lobby. This is nothing against the staff (wonderful) or the comfort of the hotel room itself (fantastic), just that the hotel chain is aimed for groups not like us.
