- Capitol Hill Suites, 200 C St. SE, Capitol Hill (tel. 202/543-6000; www.capitolhillsuites.com): No other hotel lies closer to the Capitol . . . and the Library of Congress . . . and the Supreme Court. For rates that range from $129 to $249, this property's location and sweet suites, each equipped with a kitchenette, offer a good deal, especially with the completion of a renovation that updated decor and amenities.
- Four Points by Sheraton Washington, D.C. Downtown, 1201 K St. NW, Midtown (tel. 202/289-7600; www.fourpoints.com/washingtondcdowntown): Plenty of attractions are within walking distance of this central downtown hotel: the Verizon Center, convention center, museums, restaurants, and clubs. But you have good reason to stay put, too: comfortable rooms, a fine fitness center, a stellar restaurant, and a rooftop pool -- all for rates that can be as low as $109 (though usually start at $195).
- Georgetown Suites, 1111 30th St. NW, Georgetown (tel. 202/298-1600; www.georgetownsuites.com): The suites are large, light-filled, and cheery and the service welcoming in this great value hotel. All sorts of lodging are available, from studio to penthouse, but all units have a full kitchen. And while hotels throughout the city increase their rates from year to year, Georgetown Suites' rates remain fairly constant, in the range of $155 for a studio to $425 for a townhouse.
