“We had an amazing stay at The Mansion! Truly a unique place. We enjoyed The Safari room and had a great tour with Samantha. We played pinball, sat out in the courtyard and found a few hidden doors on our own! The location couldn't be better. Staff was all lovely! We will recommend a stay here to others. Would love to come back to do a dinner in the hidden wine cellar. Our one recommendation would be to have coffee/tea available in The Mansion for guests. Thank you to all for an incredible experience!”

“This house is very eccentric with so many twists and turns. We actually stayed a bit longer than the hour and a half, which flew by. We were bound and determined to complete our quest. This would be a very fun experience for all ages. There are so many various collectors items that there is something for everyone. Some of our group was just interested in finding hidden doors, some really enjoyed the specific quests and treasure hunt. Others just preferred to look at everything and take it all in. It was a great way to spend the afternoon.”

“This was a most delightful experience. My husband and I were not too sure of what to expect as we've never had an adventure like this and we were pleased. it definitely is NOT for those with ADHD as it is encompassing of history and memorabilia. The price was fair for what was offered. Safety and covid protocols were followed making our participation more comfortable. Staff was courteous and informative.”

Amanda Nguyen on Apr 22, 2022 said:
“Love Love Love this experience. This would be great for a cute date or a team building experience to a personal escape/get away to get lost in. Next time in DC I will definitely do this tour again to see if there are more doors I wasn't able to find. I do wish there were more hints as to where the smaller doors are hidden. I only found 17 out of the 70+. It's definitely a wonderful challenge.”

“O Street Mansion is a DC treasure. A visit to the Mansion should be on every tourist's and local's bucket list. For locals, the mansion is the perfect place for a "staycation" and for tourist it is an opportunity to see a very different part of this city. The Mansion staff treat their guests like royalty. For music lovers, there really is nothing like the Mansion's collection of guitars and other historic artifacts. ”

“I was there in 2018 and I wanted to bring my neighbor and best friend as a Christmas present. She was thrilled. I missed some of the hidden places that I found in 2018 but I found new ones. We want to come down again with her family. Posted photos on Facebook and this stimulated great interest.”
Joe Redd on Mar 29, 2022 said:
“It was very fun. Finding the secret doors was exciting, but so was the for sale items, the memorabilia, and the things you could do. I brought 2 teenagers, and my son and daughter both had fun. We played pinball, billiards,clapped for chucky, put together a puzzle. It was quality time for us. Very few museums could ever pull that off.”
Naomi Savaro on Mar 27, 2022 said:

“Our first visit here (definitely not the last) and absolutely was enchanted! Had so much fun discovering doors, rooms and artifacts. I would love to see a room checklist given to guests at the beginning just to check them off and see what we missed/how many rooms we actually found, so I could go hunting more the next time! ”
Mary Sciotto on Feb 25, 2022 said:
“Awesome! I brought my sister here as a surprise for her birthday. She is an Agatha Christie fan and loved the mystery of the secret doors. We found 12! The mansion is beautiful. Thank you for a wonderfully fun experience!”
Robin Rouse on Feb 23, 2022 said:
“Wow, this place is so AWESOME! It's truly unlike anything we've ever experienced. Honestly, if you visited every day for a month and stayed three hours, you would still not see everything. At times it was a little overwhelming; so much to see WHILE trying to find secret doors/rooms. The secret doors lead you to totally different spaces; it somehow seems to be never-ending! We just wish it had been a little less crowded; we didn't get a chance to "find" some of the doors because people came through them! But even that was a bit of a thrill, having a wall suddenly open up next to us. A visit earlier in the day might have been a better bet where that's concerned. Being a boomer, this place brought up all sorts of memories and nostalgia and trips through history. If you're a museum lover, you will absolutely love the mansion. If you just like a challenge, you'll absolutely love the mansion. If you were around anywhere near the 60s and 70s, your heart will swell! (But it's not all for older folks!) And I had champagne, so ... :)”
Samantha on Feb 22, 2022 said:
“I had such a fun time exploring the mansion and learning about its history. I've lived in DC for three years and wish I'd gone sooner. You could easily spend two to three hours visiting and still not find all the secret doors. Great for group events and solo excursions any time of year. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. 10/10 recommend. ”

Cathy & Tony Ramstetter from Prestige AV & Creative Services, on Feb 22, 2022 said:
“We enjoyed exploring the mansion; it was fascinating to see memorabilia next to dishes or books or promotional knickknacks. SUCH a collection. Finding secret doors and seeing what was behind was an added bonus. Exploring in a small group would be fun to work together or do a game of some sort...but we had the best time by ourselves! AND: we met Ted. THANK YOU, Ted, for sharing YOUR story, and H's vision and work to bring the Mansion to life. We are grateful and look forward to seeing you again when we next come to DC. ”
Lori Stultz on Feb 21, 2022 said:

Shelli Sotiro - Leonardtown, MD on Feb 19, 2022 said:
“A spectacular array of rooms and objects! We knew we were going to an historic townhouse with lots of objects and hidden doors. We didn't realize that it's a combined four row houses with artistry in every inch and it is basically also an operating hotel, so most of the rooms are bedrooms, each decorated uniquely - some French provincial, some art deco, some Bohemian, and others just an eclectic mix of styles, textures, prints and knick knacks. It was fun. We found seven of the secret doorways into other rooms, and that gave our boys a thrill. The owners happened to be on site during our tour, and we really enjoyed a few minutes of conversation with this incredible, intelligent, wordly and other-worldly, culturally diverse couple! A separate experience to my liking would be a tea time chat with H and her wonderful partner in crime! A visual smorgasborg!!”
Connor Monzo - US on Feb 19, 2022 said:
“My girlfriend and I visited our first night in DC. Both of us love puzzles and mysteries. This exceeded our expectations. We meticulously went through each room looking for trap doors and hidden objects. Time flew! It was also really cool that you could buy almost anything there including some of the most prized artifacts. Would highly recommend to my friends!”

“My Christmas Party was held last week at the Mansion at O Street. In thirty-five years in business I have only returned to a venue twice for our party--The O Street Mansion was such a hit with my staff in 2019 that we came back. This is a very, very special place! The mansion itself is filled with such things as a guitar signed by all the original Rolling Stones, a Miss America tiara, and innumerable works of art. There is so much to see here, it is hard to tell if you are in a museum or on a treasure hunt. And if this didn't intrigue our group there are 80 hidden doors to find. We had 45 minutes to explore the mansion before dinner and it was hard to regroup in the dining room because we were all having so much fun.Dinner was even better than our last one here. The caprese salad was amazing and our vegetarian and chicken entrees were as tasty as they were beautiful. We had all sorts of dietary needs in our group (no red meat, no fish, no mushrooms, vegan only, vegetarian, etc etc). Our meal was planned bearing all this in mind thanks to the patience and expertise of Madison and the chef.Madison coordinated everything and could not have possibly been more gracious. She stayed until the end of the evening- a very long day for her, I am sure. She was wonderful.The chef, and the servers Luigi and Forenzio, were absolutely excellent. We couldn't have asked for a more professional staff.The geniuses behind this magical mansion, H and her husband Ted, have created magic in downtown Washington DC. Magic, joy, and a place like no other.Just go.”
Michelle on Jan 1, 2022 said:
“I wasn't sure what to expect because the website was so hard to navigate and find the NYE event we were interested in, but pleasantly surprised at the experience when we got there. Delicious treats were available and a chocolate fondue fountain. My husband and I explored for about 2 hours and found about 12 doors including the wine cellar. We couldn't find any tiny doors though. We'll have to come back to find those! ”

It was so hard to skip the wedding itself in COVID time, but this made a special day for them and the whole family. Especially grateful for the sensitive way they supported our picky eater and made him feel comfortable and engaged. The wine cellar is a beautiful space, the museum looked fantastic for Christmas, truly the entire event was everything we could have hoped for and more. ”

“This is an experience that is totally what you make of it, in a really good way! We originally wanted to find all of the secret doors, but became enchanted with the experience of each room, every floor, and making sure we visited each brickstone (we almost missed one!). There is no reason to not enjoy, because it's self guided and self described. Do you want to soak in the memorabilia?, the original art works?, the design elements?, the secret doors?, the unique ambiance of each room? There's a lot to appreciate here, including the historic relevance of this location and its ties to Mrs Rosa Parks and so many other persons. And the staff are incredible and super friendly, we enjoyed talking with them! This was a fabulous, way outside the typical DC tourist destination, which made it even more special and enjoyable!!”

Ted kindly showed me some amazing footage on his phone after I expressed interest in one of the bands who've visited! This is a delightful adventure with different layers or aspects of significance depending on your age.”

Our meal was planned bearing all this in mind thanks to the patience and expertise of Madison and the chef.Madison coordinated everything and could not have possibly been more gracious. She stayed until the end of the evening- a very long day for her, I am sure. She was wonderful.The chef, and the servers Luigi and Forenzio, were absolutely excellent. We couldn't have asked for a more professional staff.The geniuses behind this magical mansion, H and her husband Ted, have created magic in downtown Washington DC. Magic, joy, and a place like no other.Just go.”

“The Museum was a very cool experience. A lot of rooms and a lot of stuff to see in each of them. Each room had its own theme and looking for the secret doors were half the fun! Kept us looking and wondering around every corner. A Must See if anyone visits the DC area. ”
