“Wonderful stay! Great hotel and the staff was very caring!”

Reviewed 22 May 2013 NEW

What a great hotel with a quirky theme. Loved the stay. Comfortable bed, lots of outlets for our electronics and even had two power ports with two USB charging ports. The staff was always caring. Far from just the normal "hello" or "good morning/evening". As an InTouch member, I got to pick two items up to $10 in value from... More

“Helix Heaven”

This hotel is awesome. It is the perfect location, nestled on a tree-lined street in the cool neighborhood of Logans Circle. Our room was extremely large and quiet and was a great place to flop after a day of walking the sites of DC. Don't miss the free (but tip for sure!) 5-6 cocktail hour where you can meet others...

Assistant General Manager, Mike Robinson: TorontoTourGuy, sounds like a homerun! Thank you so much for your awesome feedback and local tips. We hope to see you again soon. More

“Can't go wrong with this property..and staff.”

Very convenient location and an unusual (decor) place to stay. I Have stayed here numerous times (and at other DC Kipmton properties) and have never had a disappointing stay. The rooms have a very 70's (love the Pez in the mini bar) which I enjoy. Why stay in a boring room when you can feel a little more out there... More

Assistant General Manager, Mike Robinson: RunMorganRun, First and foremost - your avatar is awesome, I love it! Thank you for acknowledging our exceptional guest service, the staff was really excited when they read the shout-put. Thank you very much for your business, we hope to see you again soon! More

“Great Place, Great Staff, Great Location”

Our stay at the Hotel Helix was terrific. From the moment we (my wife, 14 month-old son and I) arrived, the staff was attentive and helpful and got us checked in as quickly as they could and the expedience with which we were checked in and shown to our room was appreciated. With regard to the hotel and accommodations, we... More

I made a note on my reservation that I was surprising my BF for his birthday. When we got to the hotel, Ritchie checked us in told my... More

“Eclectic hotel in great location”

This hotel has two very good things going for it - its location and its price. The location, halfway between Dupont Circle and Logan Circle, is incredibly close to a host of DC sites and restaurants but it's tucked into a residential street, making it especially endearing. I have stayed in DC dozens of times for various reasons, and I... More
