The great location just blocks from the White House is a big draw at the downtown Loews Madison Hotel but so are the spacious rooms comfortable beds and a staff that's at your beck and call. This 14-story hotel was built in 1963 which might be why the 353 rooms are a bit larger than usual and have soaring ceilings. There are nice touches like pillow-soft beds covered with 300-thread-count sheets and a down duvet. The desks are big enough for you to spread out and each has a back-saving ergonomic chair. Wi-Fi is available in both the rooms and the public spaces for free of charge. There's a restaurant downstairs and a bar that is popular with an after-work crowd. A roomy fitness room has natural light streaming in through the windows. Parking is available for a fee. The downtown hotel is in a neighborhood that's blissfully quiet at night. It's a short walk from some of the city's lesser-known museums including the National Geographic Society three blocks away and the National Museum of Women in the Arts five blocks away. The White House the hotel's most famous neighbor is also five blocks away. The hotel is four blocks from both the McPherson Square and Farragut North metro stations and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is five miles away. Priceline guests give the historic Loews Madison Hotel high marks for location helpful staff and spacious rooms.
