We enjoyed our stay at the Madison. It was clean, bed comfortable and the staff very friendly and helpful. Ate at the Palette four times and the food and servers were great. (Especially Carlos) Overall was a wonderful experience. We have three things that stuck out as minor inconveniences. Asking for a small refrigerator in our room for a four night stay would have added $* to our bill. Internet also would have added a fee, so we used the free internet across the street at the Caribou Coffee. It is available in the hotel lobby, but we would have preferred it in our room and thought the cost was ridiculously high. Also the curtains do not have a darkening or privacy layer, so the room was bright quite early. We have stayed in many fine hotels across the US and were charged nothing additional for internet or refrigerator. Also they all had the darkening curtains or blinds. The Madison is easy walking distance to many restaurants and sights of DC if you like walking.

This is a wonderful hotel. But not for the budget minded. I would call this an ala' carte hotel and the cart is expensive. The staff was very attentive. The rooms were clean and spacious. The location is great as it is outside of DC so it is quite and relaxing at night. It is convient to Metro and has great resturants within walking distance.

We Stayed here 2 nights and from the minute we got there and the bellman took our luggage and the valet took my car, it was an awesome experience. Everyone was very nice and cheerful, and bent over backwards to do whatever we needed. When we got there, my kids and I had left something in the car and they retrieved my car let me get my things and reparked it for me. Breakfast was very expensive and was not that good, but the room was plush and comfortable, with a massage chair. The staff was even attentive to my 7 year old. It was overall a wonderful experience.

Extremely friendly and helpful hotel staff. Very comfortable rooms and beds, nice and quiet. Good location in proximity to major DC monuments and the Verizon Center. In a safe neighborhood with Metro stations closeby (5 min walk). Dining options somewhat pricey but food quality very good. Highly recommended and would definitely stay here again.

We just got back from a spring break getaway. This is a very nice hotel and close to a lot of site seeing areas. It is about three blocks from the metro, a short walk, but you get hit up a lot by panhandlers. The hotel is very nice and the staff were always accomodating. Housekeeping shorted us one glass one day and they quickly sent someone up with another one. There were only two things I did not like, the internet access was very expensive at 13 bucks a day. I have stated in less expensive chain hotels that provided free wireless in the room, so I left the laptop at home. I missed the net a lot as we wanted to plan our next day and research the places we had been. The next was ice, this sounds like a small thing, but there were no ice machines anywhere. If you want ice, you have to call room service and it would take 15 minutes or more to get it. One night they lost my ticket, so I called and the manager himself brought it up. The food was very pricey in the one resturaunt as was room service, so we ate off property. There were several places to eat close by. Our favorite stop was just down the street at Cosi's, they bake their own bread and it was good. We also liked the Post Pub just around the corner. An old place, but good food and cold beer. There was also a liqour store two blocks down, much better than paying 9 bucks for a 2 oz bottle from the mini bar. Overall it was a nice place to stay.
