Cafe Lombardy
One of the Historic Hotels of America, Hotel Lombardy began its rich 90-year history as an opulent residence in the Foggy Bottom neighborhood of Washington, DC. Constructed in 1926, the landmark building features a red-brick and limestone facade and iconic 1920's-era architecture. The building was renovated and converted to a classic European-style hotel in the 1970's, preserving its unique accents and adding modern luxuries.

Hotel Lombardy is decorated with elegant furnishings, rich fabrics, ornate Oriental rugs, and original local art. Our exquisite, European ambiance gives way to state-of-the-art comforts for a unique DC hotel experience. Timeless service, elegant decor and a prime location, just blocks from DC's premier businesses and attractions, create the refreshing atmosphere for work and relaxation in our nation's capital.

100% wonderful stay!! Staff is BEYOND friendly and helpful. Room was small, but quaint and cozy. Bed was soooo comfortable! Very, very clean!!! Wifi was great. Close enough to walk to Lincoln Memorial if you wanted. We enjoyed our two night stay! You won't be disappointed.

Really cute hotel, extremely Victorian. You sacrifice a lot for the atmosphere though. Walls are thin, elevators are tiny, and the bathroom is just a converted closet with no true doors. They're also right next to a music hall so it's loud at night... very loud.

Loved our hotel, beautiful boutique hotel. Our room was clean and spacious. We had breakfast in the restaurant one morning and it was very good and the Venetian room bar was excellent. Service overall was great.

Great Staff. Great accommodations. Great food. Sharina, front desk and Gamil, dining staff, made our stay so welcoming and peaceful. You know you’re in the right place when the staff is happy and they unprovoked speak well of the hotel management/ owners. We will be back. The music was fantastic also.

We stayed 5 nights at the end of September. If you like a hot shower, don’t stay in room 512. Water got cold in 3 minutes. The maintenance couldn’t fix that! And don’t call the front desk, as there was tones covering speech each of 4 times I tried that. I will add that the staff is responsive, and the location’s OK, but our room view was a glass office building 15 feet away.

Our stay at Hotel Lombardy was truly exceptional! It is in a great location. The staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating. The breakfast in the cafe was top notch. The bed was really comfortable which is a must after walking around DC all day. Highly recommend!

Very nice place. From Florida and we are about .5 miles from White House. This place is awesome. History is where it’s at. This place has a story. Love being apart of this on Valentine’s Day.

I've had several stays at this hotel over a period of years and have always found the rooms and amenities excellent, the location convenient, and the staff attentive. The restaurant menu is especially good (order the crab cakes!) and the restaurant servers go out of their way to make people feel like they are welcome guests.
