First night was rough, had a corner room where a door leading to three others kept slamming. The guests were loud and obnoxious for several hours of the night. We wanted to move rooms and were willing to downgrade but the staff were concerned about our wellbeing and upgraded us. It was very nice and we were extremely grateful. The hotel itself if beautiful, the valet is easy and quick, and the staff were always accommodating.

We stayed for our ten year wedding anniversary. Not only was the staff accommodating but went above and beyond to make our stay perfection. The corner king suit had beautiful views, the suit was well done and luxurious. The roof top bar with DJ was a great way to finish off a night out. We highly recommend staying here, dinning at Murphy’s and finishing off with desert from Lily’s Chocolate & Coffee. Brunch at Hen’s Quarters was also fantastic!

Everything was excellent except the parking situation. They have parking but you have to $45 a night which I think is very high after spending almost $300 a night . I think they need to lower the price but other than that stay was amazing

Best Hotel Experience
Heron Hotel was amazing from the room to the super friendly staff. My daughter and I had the most wonderful experience. The beds were super comfortable, and the room was clean. My daughter even had a stuffed animal, a box of chocolates, and a handwritten note awaiting her on her bed! I have never seen such attention to detail. We highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for quality accommodations with a friendly smile. We will be back next time we are in the DC area!

New, new, new
Brand new. that's the main impression we took away from Hotel Heron. The three main requirements for a good stay were all met; great bed, great shower and great location. Beautiful escape from the heat on the rooftop bar. Some small glitches in operation just showed how new everything was, and we couldn't have had a more enjoyable time. Hope to visit again to see how the hotel evolves.
