Surprised at first, not sure if it would be good. It was way nicer and cleaner than the other hotels we stayed at during our trip. The room had a Pergo floor and my grand-daughter spilt Coca-Cola, I dried it but since it had rained and my white socks were wet I wiped it more to get rid of any stickiness. After I looked at the bottom of my socks and they were still white. Highly recommend this place but take the 3rd of 4th floor if you retire early, there is a bar and restaurant on the first floor.

Good location, near Dupont Circle Metro Station.
Pros:
Location
Cons:
Maintenance of the building/rooms, and upgrading of furniture. Replace bathroom appliances.
Location:
about 2 1/2 blocks from Dupont Circle and the Metro stop. Lots of local restaurants and bars in the area, all within walking distance.
Hotel is old, European elevator (small), maintenance is done poorly (bathroom door had no normal handle/latch. They installed a sliding chain lock because the door hung so poorly it would not meet the latch hole. There was a gap at the top of the door frame). Shower is small and uses partial curtain and partial sliding glass door. Bathroom lighting was terrible in that it was blinding. They used 100 watt bulbs in all fixtures. Caulking and painting was done poorly. Furniture is old and stained. For the money I would not stay there again.
For young people, there is a club in the hotel called the "Bier Baron" that apparently has a good reputation in the city. It got quite a bit of traffic at night. They have food and entertainment as well as beer, wine, and liquor.

Hotel with Charm
We were stranded in town because of car troubles, and I found this charming hotel on Travelocity, which fortunately turned out to be right across the street from the garage. I highly recommend The Baron Hotel to anyone looking for a hotel with charm, one that's quiet, and is close to several great restaurants along with a Trader Joes. The hotel also has an English-style pub on the lower level that is stocked a large list of microbrews. Getting around was easy with transportation via walking or cab, but the metro is only two blocks away and was a great way to travel to visit the zoo and the museums. I would gladly stay here again!

Great location. Best dive bar in DC in Basement
Pros:
Price. Bar in basement
Cons:
intense chemical smell in room
Hotel Baron is a clean, basic affair. Staff very helpful in person. But the manager who I talked to one phone about changing room type prior to my arrival didn't record that information. So when I arrived, they only had one such room available. And it smelled overwhelming of chemicals. I survived a night of headache and painful red eyes and changed in the morning. Next room was perfectly adequate. I'd five four stars if I had stayed only in that room. Clean. Comfortable beds. Not enough outlets (old building).
The bar in the basement is fantastic. Good beer selection. Good prices. Not disneyfied like rest of DC.

Reasonably priced, pleasant hotel near DuPont Circ
Pros:
It reminded us a bit of small hotels we have stayed at in Europe.
Cons:
No sugestions here.
Location:
The Phillips Collection art gallery is nearby, and DuPont Circle shopping/dining establishments are only a few blocks away.
We enjoyed our 5-day stay at the Baron Hotel. It is a small, pleasant hotel a few blocks walk from the DuPont Circle Metro station. The lower level hosts a bar/restaurant and the hotel's continental breakfast dining area.
The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, our room was clean and comfortable, and our stay was quite pleasant.
There are a number of varied ethnic restaurants within a 2 or 3 block walk from the hotel.

Avoid this one if possible!
Pros:
Can't really think of anything.
Cons:
Tear it down and rebuilt it.
Location:
It was close to restaurants and shopping; however, the immediate area was sketchy going at night didn't feel safe.
A cab dropped me off at the hotel at the bottom of two flights of stairs. I am a woman travelling alone: the hotel employee standing at the door smoking his cigarette watched me drag my suitcase up the stairs. I entered my room which was hardly any bigger than the full size bed inside - a square with cut-outs for the hallway and restroom. I laid down on the bed which was worse than most bad sofa beds I have experienced. No real mattress pad and only a not well covered duvet so it didn't feel very sanitary. The paper thin walls echoed the kids screaming across the hall and the couple arguing profanely in the next room. The next morning my shower took forever because it only dripped very hot or cold water. I got downstairs and 9:05 to discover that free breakfast had stopped at 9am. After leaving for a day of sightseeing, I turned around to see axe-laden fire fighters enter the hotel. I returned after a long day at 8:55. Went to my room, realized my card key had been demagnetized, went down to get it re-coded, went back up to dump my stuff. It was 9:10 when I entered the bar/restaurant and was informed the kitchen had closed. The front desk person had told me it served until ten, but apparently closed down when business was slow. I then had to walk around the corner in the sketchy neighborhood to find food. Next morning to get work done I paid $30 for late checkout. And no food. Restaurant again closed.

A great place for a few days in the heart of D.C.
Pros:
Close restaurants, Free Internet, Quiet
I had mixed emotions heading to this hotel given previous reviews. My experience was that the front desk staff wasn't as helpful as could be, but the room situation was better than expected. The hotel is five blocks from Dupont Circle and the metro, right near the embassies and numerous restaurants. The facility is older, but the room size was certainly adequate, with nice high ceilings and comfortable bedding and furniture. The bathroom was of good size and everything worked just fine. I was on the second floor and couldn't hear a sound from the bar downstairs. Would certainly go back again!
