The Holiday Inn Washington Capitol was an awesome venue and I am so happy that I chose them as my Wedding and Reception Venue. The Banquet rooms of this hotel are amazingly beautiful. The staff is welcoming and very accommodating. I spent a year planning my wedding and their staff accommodated every need and request that I threw their way. They not only made me feel important, but went out of their way to make sure that I was satisfied. On the day of my wedding, there were many last minute changes, as in most events. The Holiday Inn Washington Capitol adjusted accordingly, as if there was never a change. I truly appreciate all of the hard work this Vendor put in to make my day nothing less than perfect.

This was by far the most affordable option for our wedding hotel block, and the location is superb! The rooms were fine, although several of the hallways smelled like vomit. The bridal suite was on the second floor near the VRE, with no view, little light, and a broken refrigerator.

Additionally, there was quite a lot of confusion as to the terms of our block reservation. The reservation process for our rehearsal space was easy.

In sum, this hotel is in a great location and will suffice so long as your guests don't need anything fancy. Just make sure that you clarify EVERYTHING in your contract.
