Four Points by Sheraton Washington D.C. Downtown
The Westin Washington, D.C. City Center
The Westin Georgetown, Washington D.C.

I have stayed at all of these. I found the Westin Georgetown to be the nicest in terms of the room, the facilities and the general area. I like it that there are a number of restaurants, coffee shop etc in the immediate area around this hotel. It also is in a little quiter area.

The Westin DC center I would rate next in order. My rooms have always been quite as they face into an internal closed attrium.

The 4 points has a definite Econo lodge type vibe. I also thought it was noisier in terms of sireens etc outside on the street. Some times it has a significantly lower price that the other two but not always.

I agree with the previous poster that the rooms in the Westin's have odd shapes but I have always got a larger than average room.

I like the Georgetown location. In DC I always use the Metro to get around so I just look at how close the hotel is to a metro location.
