Initially my mom and I stayed at the Thompson Hotel as a quick weekend getaway for my birthday, but it was a vacation for my mom as it was her first getaway since before the pandemic and her first time visiting DC She lived her best life! First off, I would like to thank the staff for being so gracious, kind and attentive during our stay I was allowed a late checkout for which I greatly appreciated

Our train home was scheduled later in the afternoon and after walking 20k steps yesterday making memories, I knew it’d be best that we sleep in I wish I could’ve stayed an extra night but I had to return home for an obligationThis hotel is BEAUTIFUL! It looks even better in person I sometimes have to visit DC for work and after staying at the Thompson hotel, this was the first time I thought “I’d come back” Our room was upgraded to a corner room which very spacious and clean The only complaint I have, although it could be the “new modern,” is that the shower is not fully enclosed I’ve stayed at a resort last summer with the same structured bathroom, so it could be that I’m not used to the new layout Continental breakfast is offered in the mornings The rooftop bar is very chill, however you have to take the elevator down to the lobby and then directly to the rooftop I didn’t get a chance to experience the restaurant but I’m sure I’ll do that my next visit 😉 There’s also multiple restaurants nearby The metro is less than a 10min walk away and it runs every 20min (I work/commute in NY so for those that understand, in case you miss your train by 1min… just pause and be patient lol) This hotel is also dog friendly and is near a dog park I have a dog-phew now, so I might bring him during my next stay

A fresh and stylish hotel, quite nice for the price Hyatt has really tried to introduce a young, high-design feeling here Rooms are of adequate size and function well

Rooftop bar was closed when we were there and I am not sure what other amenities were available A little under-staffed, reception often seemed to have long lines for check in and out My star-rating is based on value for the price and general ambiance

B Daisy

Stayed here for four nights It’s a nice, small, clean hotel The rooms are well designed and the location was convenient

They have complimentary coffee and pastries to grab for breakfast, which was nice The quality of the sheets and towels could have been much, much better They don’t provide daily housekeeping so you have to request for it the day before We asked for having our room cleaned three times, but only got housekeeping on day one No housekeeping on the second day On the third day, they woke us up by knocking at the door at 7 am, handing us a bunch of towels There was no other form of housekeeping on that day either I liked the rooms and the location, but I will not be going back because of the rude behavior

Worst hostel I’ve stayed in so far Whole place smells like sweat because of the “no shoes” rule which is clearly only there so they can save money on cleaning Rooms are clean and the beds are fine, but our room had a neon red bright exit sign that couldn’t be turned off and lit up the room at night

Also, one bathroom for the whole floor, really? Would’ve rather spent a little extra and got a hotel roomThe hostel doesn’t exactly encourage socializing either All the people we met were great, but the only nice common area (rooftop) closes way too early and the rest of the common areas are sweltering hot due to the lack of AC Also, no drinking after 10pm apparently Can’t even enjoy a beer in the heatThe only positive is the location, which really is good Walking distance to most of the good places in DC and right next to a grocery store Honestly the location is the only reaons this review has two stars and not oneOverall, I expected more from a hostel in the nation’s capital

Aidan Garrity

The location and staff are excellent The included breakfast is nice, even if it’s just pancakes Rooftop patio area great for relaxing and chatting

The hostel has a good social atmosphere Parking is a bit pricey since it’s downtown, but most people visiting this hostel are from overseas so it doesn’t matter as much Would stay here again when visiting DC

Nicholas Daniel

Great stay for my first time at a hostel The staff are very friendly and helpful, and willing to give recommendations for food in the area The free pancakes every morning were great

All the facilities were kept clean The hostel is well located near many attractions The only real complaint was that the wifi was slow but with 20+ people there that is to be expected

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

The hotel is modern with the some historic charm I felt safe during our stay The rooms were not large, but what you expect at a boutique hotel

The bathroom was spacious and clean Every member of staff we came in contact with were friendly and most helpful The batteries in my AC control went out and I informed the front desk at about 8 pm The batteries were replaced within the hour

Amy L

This is a lovely boutique hotel close to an array of DC attractions We went for a long weekend and were delighted by the excellent location, the efficient and attentive staff, and the beautiful accommodations 24-hour coffee machines on the 2nd floor were actually way better than any other hotel’s small coffeemaker in the room

The downstairs restaurant served great food and was convenient for dinner and drinks We wished that our bathroom had had an exhaust fan, but overall the room felt modern and spacious We will definitely stay here again and will highly recommend it

Nea Restivo

Small but cute rooms The staff here is AMAZING 🤩 They are ALL wonderful and helpful and double and triple check things to make sure things are correct and in order and I greatly appreciated it

Ryan Jensen

Nice hotel with a lot of inconveniences The room are great; goof climate control, comfortable bed, and quality towels, etc The problem is that the hotel is not set up for a normal traveler

It is a convention center primarily so if the event is co-located at the hotel, it’s great If you’re visiting DC and want to stay here for the nearby restaurants and easy access to the Maryland side, go elsewhere First of all, checking in is a process It took me probably 30 minutes to get to my room even though I had made a reservation There are long waiting lines at the check-in desk, and even though I’m an elite member, there was only one employee handling the check in Even after check-in, the hotel layout is so confusing it took me a minute just to find the elevators Second was the parking garage; it is a hike to get to and very expensive Third was the “resort fee” This is a sneaky way to charge you $22 more a day for your stay They say it includes dry cleaning and some other things but its a poor facade for an excuse to nickle and dime the guests–if I want dry cleaning, I’ll pay for it separately I was originally planning on staying there for an entire week, but decided to check out on the second dayI was excited to stay at this top rated hotel due to its location and surrounding amenities, but I’ll never be staying there again

David Blumberg

Loved this place! We stayed in their upgraded Suite and it was fantastic Well appointed, shower pressure was strong, loved it! Beautiful building Only minus was the loud laser show in the evening which was really annoying from our room…… also the Pool leaves a lot to be desired

The floor of the pool is terrible!!! Rough surface like unfinished concrete People – GET IT RESURFACED SMOOTHLY!! It’s only a bit over 3 feet deep so very shallow for a real pool

Hampus Engstroem

Make sure to use ʜoᴛᴇʟʙoʟʟʏᴄᴏm when booking a hotel This website will compare thousands of booking websites and typically will have prices a lot cheaper than others! Thank me later on! This hotel is the best rated in the area

I have been staying here for a long time If you stay for a few nights you won’t regret itNational Harbor in I would go back to this hotel again in a heartbeat! Let me start out by saying, that I’m usually a person that likes to explore new places, and rarely return to places I’ve already been due to this This hotel would be one I would return to- Absolutely beautiful Well kept building and grounds, lots of activities to explore and view I love that there was shopping with in the hotel, a great marketplace amazing Super clean and wonderful staff This is probably one of the nicest hotels I’ve ever see the glass elevator is nice the view is breathtaking the rooms were very nice and had lots of space 👍 The people that work here are exceptional, friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful They led us in all the right directions, and front desk was very nice 😊

Absolutely beautiful place All the staff were very friendly and hospitable We were treated very well

I love that your car is locked secure in the garage every night Check out time is NOT at the crack of dawnthe only disappointment was the beautiful pool was closedThe bathroom tile was beautiful and clean Beds were comfy and very cleanLocation, I gave 4 stars only because it was a little bit of a walk to get to the museums But also, it was a nicer quiet area, right across the street from the beautiful Martin Luther Church

Mon L

I am staying here currently with my family I can’t say enough about the warm, friendly front desk staff They treat customers with respect and kindness, and went above and beyond to get us a room suitable for our party

The pool and all the facilities are clean, well cared for and comfortable This hotel is a little bit dated in some parts, but the warm and welcoming vibe makes it worth it Excellent value and I just want to say thanks to the amazing staff who work here

Monica Hasbun

Everything was excellent: the location, the service and the cleanliness I want to thank the front desk staff Treasure, Maya, Joy, Tenisha and Evelyn They were all very pleasant and helpful

I was also very pleased with the thoroughness of the housekeeping staff They did a great job cleaning my room meticulously every day The hotel is very nice, regardless of whether it is updated or some rooms are small, which were comments I read from other reviews The rooms are equipped with a small fridge and a coffee maker, and the coffee provided (from Nicaragua) was delicious I also liked the pizza at the patio restaurant by the pool I ordered half vegetarian and half sausage/pepperoni It is lovely to sit there on a nice day Many of the guests are out in the pool area at all times of day I highly recommend this hotel

Excellent Easy check-in/check-out, staff was welcoming and really really nice

but that’s my experience with people in DC in general Atmosphere and design was top notch Rooms are small but everything you need for a great night sleep Bed is right at window sill height so feels awesome and campybut in a city Great overall design Hallways even felt great Loved the frosted glass showers and toilet but I’m very private and would probably be an issue with me if significant other was with me Although watching her silhouette in the shower would be awesome Can’t beat the price, unbelievably affordable

Joseph Wight

Wasn’t sure at first… Check in process was hassle free, loved that I could do it myself, not much available to help bring heavy/large luggage around but I managed Room was smaller than I thought with an unorthodox style but the bed was massive and incredibly comfortable Loved the fluffy pillows and the tablet being able to operate absolutely everything

The different cool soaps, tap water is safe to drink, then when I asked for cleaning, they weren’t sure when they’d get to it… then did it within hours which was a pleasant surprise Modern, elegant, and hotel of the future… would stay again!

sierra hall

I loved my time here at the CitizenM The decor was amazing and the cleanliness of the rooms were even better Our check in went well and it was very easy

The showers are amazing and the bed is so comfy The bar was my boyfriend and I favorite spot to hang out, the bartenders were lovely and we even made cool with the manager at the bar! She made us some awesome drinks The only thing I didn’t like was the parking situation You have to find random parking on the street However, the hotel was so nice that it outweighed that burden of finding parking Overall, I loved my experience the staff was very friendly and helpful

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

Everything was very clean The beds were comfy, and you were about a block or two from just about everything Everyone was very friendly and nice

I enjoyed watching the fireworks from the balcony I felt very secure in the building, and safe I was a little confused at first with how to enter the code to the main door I figured it out, but maybe a small informational guide would be nice I loved my stay here, and I would totally come back here the next time that I am in DC There was a little garden in the alley way behind the hostel that was quite pretty to view as well

Lance Russo

Let me start by saying I’ve stayed here in the past in my travels and loved it I’m also not aware if owner knows how his guests gets lied to by staff They canceled my reservations and charged my card ( they still have gave my money back

) All because they thought I was homeless I was embarrassed I live in Jersey and have a home there I love the artistic vibe here in DC and loving community I even joined a local non profit group there temperance alley because the community is wonderful For when I visit Just cause a man travels and has mental disorders like myself And chooses to explore all lives beauty Does not make him homeless They hurt my feeling so bad And it’s a shame cause I’m sure they didn’t realize just cause I’m different does not give them the right to discriminate The hostel is gorgeous but mistakes happen Besides calling me homeless and hurting my feeling so bad I cried The place is awesome I’m still waiting for owner to call me And my refund but the money isn’t the issue it’s my feelings that are the issue So if your different in any way or beat to your own drum or if your happy being you Do t go here they are not kind My name is Lance Russo I’m not happy about the discrimination and absurd comments made by staff The owner still has not called

Clarissa G

Stayed one night with a friend in the private two-bed room Check in was easy, room had everything we needed I do wish the bathroom was a little better enclosed (it had a glass wall all around but the glass was only frosted beginning partially up)

But the fact that they managed to fit so many amenities into the space so efficiently was very impressive Room was very clean Definitely would recommend to travelers on a budget Would visit again

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!

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

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

Came for casino experience only as part of a birthday getaway The GPS directions were a little weird but got us there Valet parking was prompt & only steps away from the casino entrance

We were carded & then on our way The atmosphere was lively for early Friday evening, drinks were plentiful, staff was pleasant & helpful, bathrooms were spotless My girlfriend plays the tables, blackjack & war, while I hit the slots & then joined her later for a $25 minimum war table The slots were stingy but I managed to hit enough to break even The tables were about the same, but eventually hit a streak at war & walked away several hundred on the plus side Some of the dealers seemed new, but no issues Masks were optional & social distancing wasn’t observed I was thrilled to find this casino is smoke-free! I would return here for sure

This is where I come to when I wanna feel luxurious! 😝 It’s a great spot to spend the day with family Lots of nice restaurants and bars at night 🍹🍸I really like the decorative themes they have close to the Casino 🎰 area and next to one of my favorite restaurants, Ginger

🍲There’s also lots of outdoor space to just enjoy the view of the national harbor area 🎡

So I can only speak on the Casino and the hotel lobby Security was pleasant upon entering I love a casino with a signature scent in the air

The Casino is pretty large with a nice variety of machines I only wish I saw more drink servers, I sat in a section for at least 30 minutes and did not see a serverThe lobby was beautiful, I enjoyed the installation Will definitely come back to play and hopefully stay next time

My husband and I recently stayed a night to celebrate our wedding night The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean and sanitized but i was extremely shocked by the lack of amenities at this hotel There was no microwave in the room

There was no room service No breakfast the next morning They did not validate parking I think I was expecting a little more from a hotel of such quality It was nice for a quick staycation but i probably won’t stay here again

Marcus Douglas

Good hotel within walking distance of everything in National Harbor area It’s clean, the prices are decent, and the bar and breakfast are goodThe design of the room was a bit ‘industrial’ for my taste – very bare bones, lots of hard surfaces, not very inviting

But the bed was soft and ultimately got the job doneDuring the week I stayed, only one elevator was working and it was incredibly slow Also, on Friday night some guests were partying in the hallways all night, until 4am/5am

Steve Hudson

Great hotel Beds were excellent! Wonderful pillows Central location, views and cold air conditioning

A little disappointed that you had to pay $24 a day for a parking garage and that breakfast was not included Easy walking distance to shopping, dinner, waterfront views Overall, would definitely recommend them as consideration for a place to stay

I highly recommend this hotel if you are staying at the National Harbor Check-in was a breeze, thanks to Kimberly! She made me and my family feel so comfortable and welcomed Kimberly has a angelic personality

She kept a big, pretty smile on her face every time we entered and exited the hotel She was so nice and I hope her manager reads this review so that he/she can provide her with a raise She is deserves it! The room was spotless, very clean and inviting We slept well in the comfortable beds, the sofa bed mattress was even comfortable! The host at the hotel did not hesitate to provide service when needed They were “johnny on the spot” We also enjoyed the delicious breakfast The only thing missing at the hotel is a pool My great niece was anticipating upon arrival the pool She is currently taking swimming lessons and was so eager to show me her moves!In closing, the Hyatt Place National Harbor was a 5 star experience for me and my family

Shanna Langhorne

We enjoyed our stay at the Hyatt National Harbour this weekend Loved that they have microwaves on every floor by the ice machine The breakfast was delicious and better than expected

The rooms are clean and comfortable The only con is our room wasn’t cleaned during our stay Overall we had a great experience and will definitely be back

A nice, stripped-down hotel in walking distance of the Mall This is a micro-hotel so the rooms are small and simple, but well laid out and have everything you need conveniently-located within the tiny room Bonus points for room controls with option of remote control! The beds are very comfortable

And the best feature: helpful staff who go out of their way to make you feel at home!Now for some less-than ideal things to be aware of: The toilet amenities are really nice, but there are no extras like Q-tips or cotton balls (not really a big deal) The biggest issue is there is no valet – which they DO let you know in advance via e-mail You can self-park at a nearby garage, but it is deserted on lower levels and if you are arriving late it can be a creepy place to wander around alone at night And if you don’t arrange parking in advance the fees are super-high Based on their signage I thought I would be paying $27/day – but no, it was $27 day + $27 overnight = $54 Higher than many high-end hotels So be warned and definitely lock in the preferred rate via the hotel app ahead of time!All in all a nice option in downtown DC!

Jered Brown

Small hotel space, but definitely encourages you to get out into the city and explore Unfortunately, parking is always full being in the city The front desk staff on nights is amazing

So generous and knowledgeable about the city Every recommendation that was given was on point to no disappointment Would definitely stay here again, but only if I was on a solo trip due the small room size

Samantha Hetterscheidt

Even with the rooms being as small as they were, it didn’t make the stay not enjoyable For the size, it was laid out rather well and even gave space to put your luggage and shoes under the bed and out of the way I wished the beds had been slightly larger, but it was still a rather nice room

Also, being able to control the lights and temperature of the room after getting in bed after a long day was a nice little plusThe staff were all very welcoming and answered any questions to the best of their ability I don’t think I’ve ever encountered staff as customer friendly as this one It’s definitely a pleasant experience in a great location

Great new Marriott property in a convenient location – just a 10 minute walk from the Congressional office buildings and is right next door to a Whole Foods All the staff including the valet to management were incredibly nice and attentive Rooms are standard AC brand rooms and there are water bottles in the room which is a nice touch

Rooftop bar has incredible views of the city and an interesting menu

Rewine-ing the Week Podcast

Great time! Hotel is beautiful and the staff AMAZING! The Smoke and Mirrors Rooftop floor is absolutely amazing and with a breathtaking view of some of Capitol Hill is truly beyond words My friend and I really enjoyed our stay The only thing that not a deal breaker but the gym – you have to be walked over to the apartment next door to use the gym since there isn’t one in the building

This is a franchised Marriot – even with that it was a great experience and I recommend! – my pictures are of the rooftop and breakfast area

Mikey Fort

The location of the hotel is awesome Very close to many historic sites The hotel itself is VERY nice and it has a lounge on the rooftop with a clear view of the capitol building

The rooms are spacious and have really comfortable beds The bathrooms have a rain shower function as well which was pretty nice I’d definitely stay here again

I would not recommend staying here The staff treated us like they were doing us a favor and yet they don’t offer anything here The pool is closed

The valet is a joke but charges $49 a day There is no hospitality or warmth here The bar is supposed to close at 11, but they turned us away at 10:40 We then called and asked the front desk for a bottle opener and the rude staff person was obnoxious, arrogant, off putting and refused to help us out Instead he hung the phone up on us Never got the bottle opener Never got an apology for the awful service The GM was apparently on site and was made aware of our concerns and never once reached out Don’t stay here People wonder why robots are replacing them This stay would have been better if they had robots serving us

Young Juhn

Location and quality of the hotel was good But service was not much I requested early check-in and I do understand due to large events, rooms were not available but font desk staff communicated not just me but to all others like is customers’ fault asking for early check-in

Very disappointed staff training on customer service It damages the band value of The Westine

Staff at front desk were super friendly when we checked in Room was nice and a good size Parking was behind the building across the street

Only bad parts that took a star away was the counter of the kitchen in our room was sticky, we found a few hairs on the bathroom counter and in a towel, and there was no dish soap to wash dishes, only the machine soap for the dishwasher Would stay here again!
