Loved the hotel, which was built in 1834 as the first post office in D.C. . Within walking distance to all the Smithsonians, Whitehouse etc. Across the street from the metro. More

thousandislands2, We couldn't agree more and I am just happy to be able to walk these historic halls which once housed the first General Post Office where the decision was made to begin home mail delivery service through the use of the Pony Express! Thank you for your wonderful feedback and I am elated that your experience was a memorable... More

Again, we were incredibly pleased with the staff, our room, the service, and the restaurant. Reggie, at the bar at Poste was great to chat with and... More

We found the entire Penn Quarter (the name of that whole area) to be filled with great restaurants, bars, shops, close to subway, across the street from the Spy Museum. The hotel was clean, the...
