Located in Downtown Washington D.C., Hotel Harrington is adjacent to Ford's Theater and within a 10-minute walk of other popular attractions like Smithsonian Institution.

There was quite a bit of noise at night when other guests went back late to their rooms.

There is a restaurant associated to the hotel, Harry's, which is awful, with terrible service. The hotel lobby is very run down and dirty. There were plenty of towels, a fridge and a microwave oven. The kids loved the room because it was actually two connected rooms, one with a large bed and another with two twin beds, and each with a bathroom. However, since my intention was to have a room where to crash with my two kids while on a short vacation, it did serve the purpose. So if you expect a modern property where the front desk is there to help you with the experience do not go to this hotel. All front desk staff was quite short and unfriendly. It was late and I just arrived with my two kids and I was not in the mood to go around finding another hotel, otherwise I might have. This was my first concern upon check in and the lady at the front desk was very short and told me that if I did not agree I was free to leave.

There are parking garages nearby that are not terribly expensive ($22 per day and up), but you do not get in and out rights like it was advertised. Beware that they advertise parking facilities but this is not true. The property is outdated, however the room was clean. The hotel is in a good location to explore the main sites of Washington DC without breaking the bank.
