I was just searching for the same information and I would like to thank everyone for this information on Washington, very helpful. My wife and I are going to be visiting next month and was wondering if anyone could make a recommendation on where to stay thats accessible to all the sites or to public transportation to get to the museums and sites.
Thanks,

Frank,
We usually stay in Arlington or Alexandria, but this summer we stayed in DC at the Embassy Suites, with our 11 year old grand-nephew. About 4 or 5 blocks from 2 metro stations. We used the metro every day.
The hotel had a huge buffet breakfast, free wine and drinks with nachos and stuff at suppertime. Good, inexpensive restaurant on site, and lots of good food places in the area. About $150 a nite for a suite with a separate bedroom.
