The Spotlight on Motto by Hilton Washington DC City Center

Smart, Urban Stay Steps from DC's Music Scene

Motto by Hilton Washington DC City Center is a sleek, micro-hotel with an efficient design and urban energy, located in the heart of Penn Quarter. Just across the street from the Gallery Place/Chinatown Metro station, it's a stylish, compact base for exploring DC’s live music venues, bars, and landmarks. Rooms are small but smart, with 50-inch streaming TVs, modern bathrooms, and just enough space to recharge between shows.

Why Concert-goers love it

You're within walking distance of some of DC’s best concert halls and late-night spots. The nearby Metro station makes getting to and from shows a breeze, whether you're heading to Union Market or venues near U Street. Thanks to its solid insulation and urban-focused design, rooms stay surprisingly quiet despite the central location. With check-in at 3 PM and a generous noon check-out, there’s time to sleep in after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends who want to be close to the action without spending big
- Solo travelers seeing a must-see artist or tour
- Couples making a concert the centerpiece of a weekend getaway
- Fans who want a quieter, no-fuss place to recharge after the show
- Budget-conscious music lovers who prioritize location and style

Food and Drink Options

On-site restaurant and bar make grabbing a post-show bite easy, and you’ll find plenty of walkable late-night eateries in Chinatown. While there's no 24/7 room service, the area has options into the early hours. Breakfast is available—perfect for those slow, post-concert mornings.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel doesn’t host live music, you’re right in the center of DC nightlife. From craft cocktail lounges to buzzing bars and clubs, everything is within walking or Metro distance. The hotel bar offers a cool, low-key place to start or end your night.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s location, modern design, and value for money. Many mention how easy it is to get around thanks to the Metro access. The rooms are often described as “well-designed” and “cozy,” with smart use of space and tech-friendly features.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are compact—even by micro-hotel standards—so don’t expect to spread out. Some guests mention limited storage for luggage and clothes. It's best for travelers who plan to spend most of their time out and about.

The Bottom Line

If you're coming to DC for the music and want a stylish, budget-friendly crash pad in the middle of it all, Motto by Hilton is a perfect pick.

Excellent!

Liked: Staff at front desk were very professional, friendly and helpful. The room was very comfortable, super clean, there were lots of towels and it was amazingly quiet for the busy location. Breakfast was great and staff in the cafe were also very pleasant and efficient.

Cozy , comfortable stay at...

Liked: As a Hilton Honors member I was able to check-in via the app, which made for a smooth check-in. The rooms, as described by other travelers are quite small, but perfectly adequate for a short stay. I actually found to room to be very cozy and functional. All the staff were very friendly, from the front desk, breakfast cafe staff and a special mention for the bartender Kenny, he made me feel very welcome and was so fun to talk to. The location was great as well, only a 10min ride from Union Station and the National Mall. I would definitely stay at Motto by Hilton again.

Superb

Liked: The room was quite small and it wasn’t possible to fully open a large suitcase. However, despite the limited space, it was very well-equipped with everything needed for a short stay. The location was excellent — right next to the Chinatown Archway, with a metro station downstairs and about a 15-minute walk to Capitol Hill. The room was also very clean. Overall, a good stay with great value for the location.
Disliked: Parking was available at a garage on another block, about a 5-minute walk away, with a hotel discount rate of $25.95 per night.
