I did a surprise decorated room here for my girlfriend and with help from staff accommodation I was able to make her birthday night special. The room was very nice and clean with a beautiful view of the water, if you’re looking for somewhere romantic this is the place. I would definitely come to stay again.
Georgetown House is a neat boutique hotel. It's in a perfect location in Georgetown (near intersection of M and Wisconsin) but tucked back in a quiet spot over the canal. Check in kiosk was easy with clear instructions. Room was clean and comfortable. Recommended
