I have been staying here for a long time If you stay for a few days you won’t be let downThe staff is absolutely amazing! Close to the bus line and metro Dog park right across the street Police station on the corner (felt incredibly safe) Grocery store across the street Our room was very spacious and perfect for two adults (one disabled and traveling with a wheelchair and crutches), our 13 yo son and our 150 lb service animal We had plenty of room The staff is simply amazing and very friendly and accommodating

Hotel was in a good location with wonderful service Main entrance doors locked at night the lot across the street only charged $30 for overnight parking instead of the $50 the hotel charges

Poor wifi however, and the shower door kept sliding open while in the shower Also, even though we noted that 4 will be staying, we were given a room for 2: toiletries, towels, no sheets for the sleeper couch, silverware and plates and cups… they do have good service though and although it took a few calls, everyone was very friendly and helpful

I would not recommend this spa They have major staffing issues and we have had multiple issues trying to deal with resolving issues from 11/20 through now from a 12/26 visit

They did not provide the described services and they bungled the resolution as well Don’t waste your time or money There are better options in the DC Metro area Do not recommend The hotel stay was mostly fine

R. B.M.

This is my go-to hotel when visiting DC/McLean, Virginia

It is beautiful, and the service is fantastic! This location has luckily been able to uphold high standards and customer service from check-in to dining, concierge services, you name it! I’ve had amazing experiences speaking to agents on the phone, who are actually on location, check-in services, the wonderful greeter who is always happy to direct me in the right direction, especially while under construction! I hope the Ritz maintains this level of enthusiasm as well as standard for cleanliness… I also look forward to having breakfast at Entyse, the bistro Mona has been serving us for years and we absolutely love catching up with the staff! I would definitely give them 10 stars if possible!

I stayed here for just one night on a business trip and had a lovely experience Beautiful room and location In the heart of the city close to many food options

Staff were friendly, warm, and welcoming I cannot comment on pricing as my room was paid for but it was an excellent stay Loved my room and felt so relaxed! Would love to come back! Special thank you to Femi, a receptionist who was very accommodating at check in and check out

Takia Brown

The hotel lobby was clean, the staff were nice, and the location was good Not super impressed for the price No amenities really

I had to request a fridge in my room so to accommodate that they put me in a handicap room I’m six feet tall and everything was super low so it wasn’t ideal The heated floors in the bathroom didn’t work The valet took a little too long so I tried not to use my car The gym and the rooms are pretty small I don’t think this is a desirable hotel but it’s nice

summer hiltpold`

Hotel was great and staff was friendly John was quick to greet us for the valet We left for dinner and came back to a tidy room

We stopped into the bar (the Doyle) stayed for one drink, service was very slow but they were busy and we were content and atmosphere was nice Drink was excellent Hotel claimed to have 24hr room service We called a little before midnight for a bottle of Prosecco (listed on their room service menu) only to be told they don’t do that and to call the Doyle (their bar that was closing in 2 minutes, didn’t get through) Overall fine experience but disappointed in advertised room service When paying for amenities, I like to get what I paid for

The Omni DC is a wonderful place to stay while visiting our nation’s Capital As a guest, It is not uncommon to run into our political leaders, or dignitaries, as many of them have meetings inside the hotel The old world charm of the hotel, is not lost to mismanagement, or poor upkeep

It’s truly one of a kind I would recommend this place to anyone It’s so close to so much, and has some of the most beautiful surrounding streets, large bridges, and enormous towering trees ; that so much of the city has lost with the rapid development The staff is also very knowledgeable, courteous, and will go out of their way to see you are enjoying your stay The rooms are spacious, and clean, there is a great little cafe, as well as a restaurant that serves very traditional breakfast My only complaint, would be that the magnet keys are very easily deprogrammed, so if you can take one piece of advice, don’t let your phone, or any other cards near your key card Lastly their is a plethora of good, inexpensive restaurants just a stones throw away, as well as a CVS and an exquisite liquor store, that offers a wide assortment of wine and spirits I could go on about this hotel, I suggest you just give it a visit yourself I almost forgot about the pool… Great way to relax and take in some of the natural beauty, while basking in the midday sun By

Mandy Cluff

Staff was top notch My flight arrived early, with luggage I opted to go straight to hotel, the front desk was amazing Got me checked in early with a smile and a promise of getting me taken care of

The room was large and gorgeous, very clean, bed was super comfortable I walked the beautiful grounds, read outside and had a nice afternoon I was staying for a conference- all meeting spaces and meals were well done The staff was always right there when needed at any level From the doorman, concierge, front desk, housekeeping, wait staff, maintenance not one passed by without a friendly smile or a hello My stay was amazing, can’t wait to return

Michelle Olson

We could not have been more pleased with our stay at this hotel! Upon arrival we were met with a friendly greeting from the doormen Our bags were brought up by the bellman within 30 seconds of entering our room From that moment, every employee that we had contact with was friendly & helpful! David at the concierge desk had so much knowledge of the area & was able to get us a dinner reservation at a wonderful restaurant

The gym has a wide variety of machines The outdoor pool was clean & well maintained I also like that the hotel is right next to the trails at Rock Creek park, the Metro is a block away, the zoo is a three block walk (or $2 bus ride) & there are numerous restaurants to choose from a block away My only complaint would be that the bathroom counter was small but that is what you get in a historic hotel

Corrie Christiaansen

The staff was super friendly, especially Robert and Kristine at the front desk and the bartender I was very impressed by the cleanliness and modern sleek style of the hotel The food and drinks at the bar were amazing, I recommend the shrimp linguine and the cheese spinach dip! In general my stay was quiet and peaceful in exception for some of the noise from the Metro station across the street

On the other hand, the Metro station being right there was very convenient for my trip With all the mandates and safety concerns in DC, this hotel was the perfect alternative to still be close to DC without actually staying in DC

Alison Molnar

Really excellent customer service; helped me navigate a lost credit card situation with ease! My trip very easily could’ve been difficult, but they made the check-in process painless The rooms are nice and clean – I especially appreciate the drybar hair dryers and 24 hour gym My room did have a lot of noise from the metro, but that can’t be helped

Peggy Allen

Great location close to subway We did not need to rent a car during our visit Nice savings

Very quiet throughout hotel Nice bar and restaurant in the evenings If you are too tired to leave for supper- this place, with a small menu, will satisfy if you are looking for a beer and a good burger Breakfast was very nice with a great wait staff that brought drinks and coffee quickly each morning and remembered thereafter Tables always clean unlike other hotels that leave messy tables when mornings are busy and tables are in demand Good coffee Would stay again

A very nice hotel with a large indoor pool, great dining facility, and comfortable suites The location of Bethesda Embassy Suites makes it extremely convenient for going to DC, northern Virginia, and Maryland locationsI especially appreciated the friendly and courteous staff, who started my day with a cheerful smile and a wonderful breakfast

They continued this as they greeted my return and supported my requests A Manager’s reception in the early evening helped ease the stress of the day or provided a change to help one wind downThe experience I had was shared by the hundreds of guests that were there at the same time I was I saw the staff interact with everyone in the same manner and you know the had equally comfortable and clean roomsSo come and stay at one of the DC area’s best hotels You’ll enjoy it, I’m certain

sharon fritts

We stayed at Embassy suites because my husband had to have facial reconstruction We had to stay 5 nights The location was great, close to the medical facility

The room was comfortable Berta, at the front desk, was very kind and helpful She was exceptional at her job, all of the staff seemed very good at whatever job they did The breakfast was wonderful, the breakfast team was AMAZING We are very pleased with our recent stay

Javier Mejia

Positives: Big and comfortable rooms, enough set of towels The breakfast offered is pretty good There is a good food variety and the products offer are of high quality

The room also had a good viewNegatives: The first night I had to kill a spider, and I didn’t had soap for my hands I also had to tell them twice to send a housekeeper to do room service

Nice and clean rooms with room service on both days of our stay, which was pleasantly surprising You don’t get that unless you ask these days Friendly staff that tended to all our requests

Were upgraded to a suite for one of the rooms on our reservation Kitchen was super helpful as we are traveling with a 10 month old infant I ordered multiple food and grocery deliveries to be left at the reception and never had an issue Good job hotel management! You’re doing a much better job than some others in the same class out there

Carrie K

Honestly, I’d I could give more than 5 stars I would Everyone was incredibly kind and made us feel like we were coming home The breakfast was nice, but again the wonderful staff helped put it over the top! The valet was helpful and convenient

They let us pack our car and keep it garaged after our checkout so we could finish out our day again The rooms were cozy and large I felt like I got much more than what we paid for Our family will definitely be staying here again!

Kristina. Lumapas

Overall everything was great from check-in to checkout Room was clean, bathroom felt luxurious and kitchen was fully equipped The only downside was the bed size

We booked a room with king bed and what we got was a queen We reported this to front desk and they insisted that it was their king size bed I couldn’t be wrong with the size since we have a regular king bed at home, not even a California king bed, and theirs was just too small, I’m very sure it was a queen If you’ll get assigned to room 1010, don’t expect a king bed, it’s just too small My husband slept on the couch since me, our preschooler and him couldn’t fit

Treated my sister and her husband to a stay at the Hay-Adams & it’s one of the very few times I can say that it was absolutely worth every cent Our rooms were impeccable, every member of the staff we encountered was genuinely caring, & every meal we ate was exceptional Everything exceeded my expectations

I’ve never experienced anything like it; they must go out of their way to hire the best of the best & treat them well because nothing fell short of absolute excellenceI don’t think I could ever stay anywhere else in the city It made our time in DC magical

Catherine Misleh

Worst service I’ve had in a long time – possibly ever This rating should be negative zero stars My mother is visiting from out of town (very far away) and I had planned a nice day to include afternoon tea for the both of us as a special treat

We do not get time together very often Imagine our surprise and disappointment when we arrived and the restaurant had no signs of life – closed without notice I went to the concierge desk of the Watergate and was informed it had been closed days before with no explanation and that they were sorry but the reservation must have been made through a glitch in their system The woman behind the counter was very nonchalant and not at all concerned, even when I showed her proof of my reservation Funny since I received both an email and two text reminders asking me to confirm, and was also charged for a prepaid tea service The Watergate staff did not offer any recompense, said I would have to resolve the charge to my card online, and to “try Georgetown” for something today Absolutely unacceptable! I will not be returning and will make sure to recommend against it every time I thought it would be fun to try, but there are plenty of better other and obviously better options in the area anyway I should add there were a couple of other guests in front of us who seemed extremely distraught by poor service and their rooms not being ready, so overall I would say this establishment should be passed over in every respect

Olivier Saint-Vincent

100% recommended!!If you are looking for a 5 stars ⭐️ hôtel in DC, this is the one It was perfectly located for us between Georgetown and the Mall (walking distance), and very quiet at the same time Gym, pool, jacuzzi, library, breakfast are great

You can walk by the Potomac easily… and it’s one of the best rooftop in DC The architecture is beautiful and bold The staff is very attentive and always there to help We can say that the new GM know how to make a stay unforgettable!!!

Adam Galazka

Absolutely stunning hotel Amazing location by the Potomac River Walking distance to many different stores and restaurants

Check in was great Valet parking on site for $58 a night Rooms are spacious and the most comfortable bed Some rooms do have balconies with waterviews but they are a little dirty When trying to call the front desk it took awhile for them to answer the phone Besides a couple of those negative we would definitely come back

Stayed this weekend and this is a fabulous hotel The service, the location the people who work there really made my stay amazing And when I needed an extra night because of a car issue they easily and quickly accommodated me and price matched to a nearby hotel I was going to check into after I had already checked out of their hotel

The Decor was amazing, the design I mean it all was great and made my Instagram very popular for the weekend Definitely will get my business again and would recommend

Katie Roth

We were charged $31 a night for amenity fees, we never used any of them This was not explained until we checked out Keurig in the room did not work, was also told the ‘free’ water in the room was included in the amenity fees

There was also a grease stain on one set of sheets and I found a couple of small blood stains on mine The staff was wonderful But would not stay again, I don’t appreciate hidden ‘amenity fees’ when they are something I did not even use

Jenny Swartz

What a wonderful hotel! I was in DC for a work trip and decided to stay an extra night My first 4 star hotel, the room was like a staying in a basement and I couldn’t stand another night My extra night was at my own expense so I wanted to enjoy it

Wow did I ever make a great choice! What a difference! Hotel Zena, bright, modern, friendly staff well worth schlepping the 4 blocks with my bag!

For $270/night I was expecting a bit more You can book the Ritz across the street for around that price!The property was very clean and well maintained, but the decor felt quite dated No microwave and no free breakfast either

I’ve now stayed at all three Marriott properties in Tysons Corner The only one I will stay at again is the one on Rt 7 just off 495

Tom Marcin

A two-bit hotel with horrible air-conditioning Unhelpful front desk As soon as i walked in the hotel i became so horribly congested each night I couldn’t sleep

I should have left after first night Will never go back even though my office is across the street They don’t even offer a bottle of water to their guests who pay OVER $400+ on some nightsWhat a hot mess No amenities in the roomNot only will I not return to this Courtyard, i vow to never do any Marriott properties the rest of my lifeHilton, here i come

Robertq Quarture

I am a loyal Marriott Platinum member I am extremely disappointed in the new customer service, where you need to await your call for anything, to be answered by outsourced Customer Service The minimum wait is usually 10 minutes and they have no idea what they are talking about

They recite policy and have no flexibility My issue was a sudden death of a very close family member and Marriott would not refund a pre paid hotel night I will have no problem taking all my business and my company business elsewhere I have banned the use of any Marriott brand within our company It is a shame what Marriott has become!!

I am giving a 5 because I have given lesser places a 5 It is very luxurious and the staff is superbly courteous without being stuffy It was immaculate

We had a king deluxe and the bathroom was amazing Linens were luxurious The food was delicious and the pig roast on Thursday night at $32/plate was a bargain They would box up what you could not eat and let you take it with you I did not use the spa or pool areas The only criticism I have is that there was no little store in which you could pick up drinks or snacks to have in your room There was a refrigerator which housed some drinks/snacks before but they had been removed So, in the evening, your only option was room service and to get a cup of coffee and a few cookies took close to an hourplus a tip There is no place within walking distance to pick up such items either If you are used to those things in the evening or have small children, bring it with you

Y. Lee

First time staying here and definitely won’t be my last time The service was like no other! SUPERB! I can’t believe their is still service like this out there Every single employee we ran into was amazing

I’m blown by the service The rooms are very nice and clean The hotel itself is very classy and comfortable The food surpasses my expectations for hotel food and my kids loves their breakfastThe location was perfect because it was close to everything, but far enough from the crowd to keep the atmosphere intimate The hotel is very kid friendly as well being that it’s an upscale hotel, so don’t be intimidated if you have kids and would like to stay here

The Maldonado’s

Great location and amenities Morton’s is one of my favorites, and they are located in many nice hotels like this one Make sure you visit on the evening

Our tour had breakfast arrangements, missed the eggs on the last two mornings of the trip To their credit, staff was kind, attentive and accommodating Starbucks in the house too (for those Cafe lovers like us) Safe “business” area, and parking is just around the corner Modern feel with plenty to do around the hotel

It’s a good business hotel, quiet standard, could be any brand really Pros and cons below:PROS:Large spacious room with nice expansive views onto the main street, gets good light during the day Comfy bed

There’s a desk to work at if need be Nice staff at the hotel, very accommodating and caring Very clean, good observation of covid rules etc Food served during the event was good too, tasty, good temperature- I recommend the current kitchen staff can certainly cater for breakfast tooAreas to IMPROVE:No breakfast, no pool/spa; the air in the hotel was so dry most event delegates were complaining about difficulty to sleep at night, myself included – I strongly recommend to get lots and lots of green plants, maybe install some air humidifiers for the winter months The shower head was full of limescale – need to check those details and replace Maybe add a picture(s) in the room, some softer interior details – interior now looks so sterile, plain

We visited DC for leisure, and we felt that this hotel was the perfect balance of convenience, comfort, and value Driving in from out of town, it was easy to get to this hotel by car, and the Metro stop made it easy to get to all the big sights around the capital Our rooms were clean and nice, and the bed was comfortable

Yes, you have to pay for breakfast here, but there are tons of options nearby, including several in the lobby I was perfectly happy with Starbucks and Dunkin; my husband and his parents sought fancier eats in the morning The only bummer was that there’s no pool and hot tub But still I’d give the place a full five stars because we were truly satisfied with this hotel

Two to three months ago, we requested 15 or so rooms for a weekend and were told to contact them at the time of the stay in order to ensure that the rooms were connected and in the same part of the hotel Only for us to be told day of that that would not be feasibleCheck-in was painful – we had to stay with our guests to help with the check-in process – and even then it took 1

5 hours for nearly every room to get checked in The staff seemed confused about who had/had not checked in and relied on a spreadsheet THAT WE CREATED in order to keep them organized For a “new/top class” hotel, their technology literacy could really use improvementTwo weeks later, we are dealing with incorrect charges on cards, higher than promised rates, confusion over guests’ names and their room charges, and staff who continue to pass us around and follow up with high-level details instead of taking the time to investigate what went wrong on their end We were considering this space for a wedding venue, but the utter frustration we have faced since has quickly ruled this place outThe hotel directs guests to a $10 / night overnight parking garage that takes forever to get out of The signage to get in and out of this hotel is unclear and there do not appear to be any plans to change it The hotel clearly relies on business travelers and knows itFinally, as of 6/16/22, we were offered the equivalent of one night free as compensation for our troubles We gave them 30 nights worth of business Will never come back nor recommend this place to anyone – wedding, regular stay, anything This has turned me off the Hyatt brand for personal use

The hotel was nothing short of excellent The hospitality was amazing I stayed here for my birthday weekend and the front desk hostess, Catherine was amazing! She paid attention to every detail of my request and made sure that my needs were catered for

I had the King room with a view of the city And it was just gorgeous The breakfast at the hotel restaurant was equally up to par and scrumptious!It’s a gorgeous property that I would definitely revisit anytime I’m in Tysons

Tim O’Neill

The room was fine but it is a ‘pet friendly’ hotel which apparently means you can bring your dog to stay with you, leave it in the room and go out and party all night while it sits in the room alone howling Unbelievable! Good luck sleepingWho knows when the adjoining restaurant opens on a Sunday morning? Nearest place open at 7am for breakfast was Silver Diner a mile away

It was fantastic!

As a marriott platinum member, I was treated no better than other customers or even worse Was there ona business trip and the room charges supposed to be charged to the company credit card instead of mine However, they charged everything to my card although the company already authorized for all the charges to be put on their card

When I reached out to them they were not helpful or responsible Customer specialist Juliana James did not respond to my email after several attempts Definitely did not expect this kind of service and this is very disappointing for a Marriott brand

J Taylor

Nice place, excellent location with lots to do – you can easily walk to Dave & Busters arcade, go see a movie, or visit the bookstore and Target Sheets and room smelled very clean!We left a whole bag of kid’s stuff that included an AC adapter to a Nintendo

super valuable to a 7 year old and really nobody elsethe amazing maid promptly returned everything to the front desk and we were able to retrieve a few hours later Thank you

I’ve stayed at Courtyard by Marriott Gaithersburg a few times during the pandemic It is located in the heart of Washingtonian Rio and is a short walk to the movie theater, restaurants, and shops They have a small parking lot to the side of the hotel for guest registration and unloading

Additional parking is available in the retail parking garages The check-in and check-out process was smooth When I checked in, they told me about their weeknight happy hour from 5-10pm with discount on beer and wine and handed me a small flyer with guest information about their bistro, fitness center, housekeeping, and parking If theyoffered complimentary coffee and tea throughout the day and night to guests and two complimentary water bottles to their Elite rewards members, I’d give them 5 starsThe bistro located on the 2nd floor serves basic Starbucks drinks, breakfast, and dinner For breakfast, they have the following items: Two Egg Omelet, Eggs Your Way, Bistro Breakfast Sandwich, Balanced Breakfast Sandwich, Breakfast Burrito, and Classic Oatmeal For dinner, they may have the following items: Avocado Lemon Yogurt Dip, Caesar Salad, Margherita Flatbread, Loaded Tot – Chos, and Grilled Chicken & Bacon QuesadillaDuring my stay, I had breakfast at their bistro I had a Two Egg Omelet made with egg whites, gruyere, and caramelized onions It was served with crispy herb potatoes and ketchup and dressed with lemon EVOO It was deliciousMy room (including the bathroom) was clean, spacious, and great view of the Rio lakefront In terms of toiletries, they provided makeup wipe, facial bar, body wash, shampoo and conditioner I liked how the showers were hot The bed and sofa bed were super comfy My only complaint was the walls aren’t very insulated – you can hear conversations, opening and closing of doors, nature, and motor vehicles

Decent hotel The lobby is really flashy, unfortunately the rooms are quite dated, and mine had a weird smell The shower had some mildew on the floor, and of course the room had an old carpet on the floor as most hotels do

At least the rooms were bigThe on site restaurant had a decent selection of food and beverages, I had the salmon for dinner and it was pretty good I also had breakfast in the restaurant and they did not have the buffet set up, I ordered parfait with granola and fruit and it was good! Main gripe was that they charged for coffee and juice, and quite a lot, so the whole ticket got quite expensive for a really simple breakfast The executive lounge was closed too which was a bit if a bummerOverall it was a decent stay, definitely stayed in worse hotels

Matt Winn

Our stay at the hotel was extremely disappointing On the first night, there was continuous noise until 1am Part of that noise was the hotel staff loudly opening and closing doors up and down our hallway and running a vacuum cleaner which they also carelessly slammed into the door/wall outside our room

When we asked the staff member with vacuum to stop, he refused Part of the noise was rowdy activity in the hallway, which the staff did nothing about despite multiple requests Even later in the week, young people were running around and yelling in the hallways because there is no atmosphere of civility or control by the staff It was very disruptiveOur stay was also disappointing because basic amenities were broken, unavailable, or held at cost For example, the convenient location next to the metro was spoiled because upon return, the door back into the hotel was locked and the card key access was not operational We asked to use a microwave and were told that it would be a $10 extra charge – really? At the price we were spending – which did not even include any room cleaning – it is insulting to me that you’d try to milk even more money out of us for something that could have been set up and finished in 5 minutesConsidering the hotel itself was responsible for these disappointing factors in our stay, I regret paying for the room and don’t think it will be a good idea to return, even though I plan to return to Rockville many times in the future

This is a conference hotel but it’s also perfect for business travelers Things I loved: super fast elevator, simple interior parking, Starbucks, great bartender and kind front desk people, good work space in the room (huge desk chair), fabulous pillows, every store you need within walking distance, close to DC, AND across the street from a metro stop and regular sized grocery store (Safeway!) My FAVORITE thing? It was So

Quiet!!! Slept great!
