Katie Sherman on Jul 19, 2022 said:

“The house is fascinating and packed full of neat items displayed in a fun, eccentric way. Great for curious kiddos. My 11 year old daughter's favorite finds were Tinker Bell and the Elvis room. We laughed, got lost, and loved it all!! We went 1.5hrs before closing, but I'd recommend more time. People were great too.”

“This was s super fun trip to give to my two oldest grandchildren, 11 and 8. We thought we would take advantage of the themed treasure hunt lists but they only wanted to focus on finding the hidden doors! It turns out that children are REALLY good at finding the doors. We (haha, THEY) found every single room! We had time to go back to some of our favorite rooms and of course they both bought something to remember the trip. A crazy whacky place to visit and my husband and I will probably go back by ourselves to take advantage of some of the virtual app links to be found that add special information, and maybe use those treasure hunt lists.”

Joseph Quiroz - US on Jul 16, 2022 said:

“This experience was so much fun! My girlfriend and I were determined to find as many of the secret rooms as we could. We may just have to book a stay at this hotel/museum to find all of them through out the night. Highly recommend this for anyone!”

Benjamin Seitelman on Jul 11, 2022 said:

“This was my second experience at the Mansion, and first in almost four years. I went with an out-of-town guest who had never been before. She had a blast, as did I. Four years was enough time to forget most of the secret door locations, and on this visit I even found more doors, including in unexpected places. It was a great rainy day experience; I can't wait to go back someday (but not for a while--I want to forget where all the doors are).”

Anthony Pace on Jul 10, 2022 said:

“This place is absolutely amazing!! We wanted to do something different on this quick trip to DC and The Mansion was the perfect choice. We figured it would be an hour or two but were completely blown away by everything there was to see and explore. All said and done we spent nearly 5 1/2 hours there discovering new things around every corner. Couldn't ask for a better time. The staff was incredible as well. Very knowledgeable and friendly. I would recommend The Mansion to everyone who wants to have a great time a little off the beaten path. One of DCs hidden gems for sure.”

Anne on Jun 7, 2022 said:

“Enjoyed the Secret Door Experience. Heard about you from friends. We posted 2 pictures on FB to spread the word too. Wish there was a list of rooms you could pull up on your phone to click when you've seen them. We went back to the web site lodgings part to look at the pictures to determine what we had missed & seen. We had a lot of fun! Thank you.”

Parking was a but harder than expected, I didn't expect the mansion to be in the city, either. But it all worked out well! Our hostess let me know how to get everything taken care of. The mansion itself did not disappoint! I wasn't sure how many hidden doors we would find, but we found all the doors I think.. those little cubbies hiding around are very tough, we didn't find and tiny ones.. very cool to see everything in the mansion and all the wonderful rooms. Definitely something to check out if you haven't already!”

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 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.
