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

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

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

Helena Williams

I stayed here for a week on a school trip and it was great Our group was well accommodated, and the staff were all very helpful The rooms were really nice and clean, and there was a whole kitchenette and a balcony

It was also within walking distance of a lot of other cool destinations I had a great time at this hotel and I would definitely recommend

Katelyn Collins

I reserved a hotel room for my fiance’s birthday We had a very pleasant stay The staff greeted us warmly and were very accommodating

They even upgraded our room for free! The room was very spacious, like a 1 bedroom apartment, with an attached balcony There was a decently stocked kitchen attached This is a pet friendly hotel, and a dog bed and bowls were provided at no additional charge The gentleman at the front desk even offered to walk our puppy for us There is a hospital close by, and the noises that come with that, and just DC noise in general, but they offer ear plugs, sleep masks and white noise machines The bed was comfortable Wifi was complimentary (a bit slow at times tho) Overall, I would stay here again

Bill Holler

This very modern Apartmenthouse is for me the right placeYou have a complete apartment with everything you need for a short or even long stayThe whole place works fully digital

Once you have installed the App and activated your stay, you are ready to enter everything you needThe doors will unlock automatically once you are close, the same goes for the elevator or the parking garageThe equipment in the room is top notchAs fully equipped kitchen, washing machine and dryer, even an extra dressing room, what else can you ask for?Oh yes, of course what about a balcony? But this is also therePricing is excellent compared with hotels in that area, only 15 minutes from the Capitol

Lucy Yao

Great location, amenities and spaceLooks clean upon first glance, but after a couple hrs walking around, all our socks and feet were filthyNot for families with young kids or anyone planning to remove their shoes at some point

It’s a shame, as I really like a lot of features about this place and would still recommend for adults who aren’t going to be bothered by dirty floorsFor $450/nt, I expected not to have to be down on my knees Lysol wiping when first arriving at my hotel

Noel Pearson

Genuinely amazing experience The staff was kind, courteous, and personable (Natia helped check my partner and I in) The room was gorgeous, clean, spacious, and far exceeded any expectations, especially at the steal of a price it was at! There were so many amenities available to us: a washer and dryer, a high-end fridge with ice and water dispensers, a dishwasher, a walk-in closet, a massive flat screen with Apple TV, an exercise room; it would be easier to name what they didn’t have! I bought the Junior room with a queen bed for $157 a night (pre-tax) and have to say that it was worth every cent!My partner is very picky about, well, everything

I was deadly afraid of messing up her birthday trip with a sub-par room, luckily I didn’t have to worry at all WhyHotel provided us with a room that she deemed the nicest room she’s stayed in, everTheir check-in and check-out policy is quick, easy, and —frankly— next gen with its electronic lock system and digital services If I ever needed assistance, I could text the help line and get a response almost immediately!The location was in a fantastic area, as well The view was incredible and the options for shopping and eating were limitlessFrom the bottom of my heart, I’d like to thank WhyHotel for making my partner’s birthday the best to date I’d recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in area

This hotel was amazing! My family and I stayed here over the weekend and we truly enjoyed this hotel Check-in was pretty quick Continental breakfast was available every morning

Food was pretty good Rooms were amazing! I had 3 King Suites (2 bedrooms) and all three were spotless Great location right across from the Metro station Also, there was a 2 hour reception every night that included 2 free drinks per person per day Very thoughtful! Lima was amazing, and even gifted a later check-out time due to traffic My only complaint was parking, but that was to be expected

Becky Coxson

Cocktail hour was great Room clean and comfy Staff very nice

Would have given 5 stars if trash cans in elevators has not been overflowing onto floor If you don’t have staff to empty cans don’t put them out Also have to ask if you want clean towels or room trash emptiedBreakfast buffet was well maintained

Justin S

Great stay over the 4th of July weekend! Although the hotel was very busy, they were extremely attentive to any need we had! Great included breakfast! They went the extra mile and reached out to offer a late checkout on our departure day…which helped us out immensely Great location to the train as well! Will stay again when visiting DC

Me and family booked a night here from out of state Family of 4 with the king suite and pull out couch First off the pool doesn’t exist so don’t pack bathing suits nor believe the pictures

We were told it had been out of use for 6 years In our room on the south tower side we had no air and not to mention we had two toddlers with us So it wasn’t pleasant nor did I sleep good Parking is ridiculous being $42 a night but I guess your car stays safe right…? The breakfast that we paid for with our reservation was okay not the best breakfast I’ve had and it kind of bothered my family because waiters tried serving us when we didn’t want to be served and bothered us while eating wanting a tip…when our food was paid for…and it’s a buffet The pull out couch for my oldest toddler was mediocre outdated kinda feeling I will have to say it was clean more than other hotels I’ve been to so I give it that and it was close to a lot of attractions That’s about it!

Sharion Flood

My daughter was graduating from college in the area so I booked a room here Upon booking the room, I asked was there a pool and was told yes there is an indoor pool On the website, it states there’s a microwave and refrigerator in the room

Upon arrival, there was only a refrigerator but no microwave My granddaughter wanted to go to the pool so after her, my niece and nephew got dressed, we called the front desk to inquire about the location of the pool and was told that there hadn’t been a pool in the past 5 years I had an event to attend with my daughter so I made a call to the hotel while I was out to ask about the microwave that was suppose to be in the room and was told they would bring me one Upon returning to the room (picture provided) this is what I was provided It looks as if they pulled it out of an employee lounge or something with dents all over it The 2nd night the cable went out and did not come back on (pictures provided) I called the front desk and was told that they had called for repair For taxes and fees, I was charged the same amount as another night of stay ($466 for 2 nights) (pictures of room provided)I had family in another room, which they did not have any air conditioning The hotel did have it repaired which worked for a few hours then went back out, however they did have cable the entire stayNot 1 time did I receive an apology for any of the inconveniences from this hotel staff I attempted one more time to address all of the inconveniences upon check out At that time they offered to comp my parking which I didn’t have a car there, so I asked that they comp my family with the room that had no air conditioning They did do that for themThe staff acted as if all issues happen on a regular basis as they are quick to respond without checking any of it outI would never stay at another Double Tree anything I do not recommend this hotel under any circumstances

Cheryl Denise

The service at this hotel was great and the staff was really friendly The rooms though

they really need to be updated Our bathroom mirror was broken all along the edges – which is a hazard – and the “King” bed in our suite was definitely a Queen Our shower didn’t drain properly, and since there is no daily housekeeping, that meant we needed to clean our own tub Good thing I had my Clorox wipesbut I didn’t pay the nightly fees to clean my own tub in a hotel suite Yes, maybe I could’ve switched rooms but who wants to do that after dragging your luggage to your room and unpacking? The A/C was questionable – you had to turn it down to the mid 60s to get the air up-to-par Note: this is coming from someone who typically likes the room in the 70sIf you don’t care about any of the above and you need a hotel in a great location, then by all meansknock yourself out

We stayed at The Line for three nights and I wish we could have stayed longer! Prior to our arrival the front desk staff were friendly and helpful on the phone with fantastic dinner suggestions and tips for getting around via public transit We arrived early and were expecting to leave our bags at the front desk but the employee was very accommodating and checked us in The room was lovely

Incredibly clean bathroom and bedroom, a beautiful view, comfortable bed, and very quiet We enjoyed downtime either at the rooftop mini bar at night watching planes fly in to Reagan air port or during the day on the patio out front of the hotel Truly a beautiful hotel and spectacular staff 10/10 would recommend!!

Marshall Daly

Superb location, and very cool building Rooms are good — certainly better & more unique than a chain hotel, but nothing fancyService, however, was very disappointing for this price point

Called room service for an extra set of utensils never delivered Front desk called with a non-urgent questions at ~11pm on Friday night, then accidentally called my room at ~6am the following Saturday morning ouch Finally, tried to check out the hotel’s rooftop bar and later, the “included” rental bikes only to find out that roof was not open to guests and the bikes were not availableAll told, great location and cool architecture, but for this price the service & amenities left a lot to be desired Hopefully they can improve, it’s great having a hotel option in such an excellent location!

Mollie Young

Everything about our experience was incredible The staff is warm and hospitable, the room was spacious and tasteful (with great city views), and the amenities cannot be beat! We were so excited to use the gym and couldn’t get over equipment options — there’s something for everyone! The hotel restaurant, No Goodbyes, is also a must The service is excellent and the food is fantastic

Definitely have a cocktail at the bar before or after dinner and check out the coffee shop the next morningEverything about our stay was wonderful, and we are already planning our return visit!

Excellent! The front desk staff, valet, and housekeepers were all extremely friendly and accommodating My wife, dog and I recently stayed 4 nights and had a great time Hotel was Very clean, spacious and modern

The balcony room is a must have in my opinion and it didn’t disappoint The area is really nice and has plenty of walkable spots for food, coffee, etc Firefly has an eclectic brunch menu and they have great bar tenders as well The only negative I could possibly share would be the water pressure but with multiple settings for the shower it was fine Overall I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to have an amazing guest experience with a high standard for cleanliness in the nation’s capital

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

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

Joan Dineen

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

They do have a breakfast that we didn’t try ($15/person) but if you are going to DC, eat at the hotel your first day It’s just easier until you get your bearings They don’t clean the rooms every day, which is fine, but you do have to be proactive about asking for towels and to get the trash emptied if you want that Their convenience store was woefully understocked so even though they have guest laundry on the second floor, I couldn’t use it because I couldn’t get soap Kind of a bummer The staff is very friendly and helpful Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel if you are visiting DC Much cheaper than a DC hotel and you get to spend the evenings in Old Town Alexandria every night

Freespiriting xo.

I just wanted to first and foremost give the manager Joe a shout out!! There was an issue with a double charge for the room I booked, and this man went above and beyond to get it fixed and to show how apologetic he was that it happened It’s rare to come across employees/managers like him, and I just wanted him and the company know that he’s great and truly appreciated Because of you Joe whenever I’m in town, I’ll be staying here at this Hilton

Also, the rooms were clean and breakfast was great The location is perfect as well, it’s right across the street the a train station

The accommodations were nice and what you would expect for a Hilton location My issue was with the billing, service and responsiveness of the manager After paying for my entire stay in advance via the Hilton app I was overcharged by the hotel who should have only charged me for parking

I expected a hold would be placed on my card for incidentals for $150, the hold ended up being $670 No one could explain why the hold was including what I had already paid for my 3 night stay along with the incidental deposit The entire hold finally released 5 days later but now I’ve been charged nearly $300 which is no where near what parking actually cost me I was told that this would be handled by the location manager on July 3rd and I would get a call from the manager I have yet to hear from anyone from the location nor have the charges been corrected Needless to say I will never stay at this location again I am also disappointed with Hilton Customer Care for their lack of support in this situation

We had the BEST experience here!!! My wife and I stayed there for a short getaway weekend and as soon as we stepped in we were welcomed by Brandon at the front desk He was the nicest front desk agent we have had the pleasure to meet He was very personable and we had a great conversation

He went above and beyond and sent us a bottle of champagne to our room! Very nice gentleman The hotel itself was also fantastic Very clean and beautiful

Joseph Berkowitz

This is a very nice hotel in a fabulous location Our room was one of the nicest, and had a great view of the water The style was hip but a bit colorless

The property has a nice gym, restaurant with bar and outdoor sundeck, although it was partially blocked off and plantings needed some attention Front desk staff were all lovely and helpful Great all in all Could use a few tweaks

Nina

Dog friendly hotels are usually a hit or miss, and this one is a hit! Great overall experience during our stay The staff are friendly and helpful, and the room we stayed in have a nice layout and was very clean Common areas are beautifully designed as well

Nice location too Walking distance to a lot of shops, restaurants, and parksThere IS parking available, but it’s pretty tight Think DC parking garages but smaller capacity However, there is valet available

I visited this location for a conference The entry way is contemporary and the decor quickly creates a visually stimulating atmosphere There are ample places to sit and gather, talk, relax, or have a bite to eat

There are various areas to also work or take a phone call in the lobby areas and areas that are in each floor The conference area is easily accessible and is multifaceted in it’s design The staff is quite amazing for assistance I can’t say enough about this as I was a sighted person attending a conference for the American Federation of the Blind leadership Conference The entire organization ensured everything was accessible for attendees and guide dogs They were stellar in their customer service and hospitality with this situation

Val Jones

Very clean and modern rooms Fridges are in the rooms which is always a wonderful thing I love the lighting in the room! Everything is fresh and vibrant! I think the bathroom is a tad small but it has an industrial look so it’s sort of gets away with it

Also it has an Ethernet plug!!! Always a good thing!!! Overall I really enjoy this hotel great customer service and great design! And nice views from the 14th floor

Tonya Walker

My stay has always be amazing! Hotel is close to everything you need and surrounding areas– National Harbor, mall, monument

etc The front desk, security, other staff and valet attendants treat you with respect with great member service My recent stay was June 29- July 1st and it was superb I had a personal, unexpected situation on my behalf and Irene was able to come up and help assist me (in which she did not have to) She checked on me throughout my stay and gave me the most sweetest and genuine wisdom there and at my car during my departure I did not get the valet attendants names but they went beyond my expectations Late night room service (delicious, and flavorful), pool, restaurant inside hotel and near and other hotel amenities are a Plus! I always refer others to stay here Keep doing a terrific job, and providing superb service to your guests You have a loyal member/guest from me and my family Blessings to you all😊❤ See you soon!!

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

The location is good for tourists if you don’t mind the short walk to the transit station We walked in in daylight and at night with no safety concernsThe hotel itself was undergoing some renovations while we were there

The breakfast area was closed, but it had been moved to the adjoining Garden Inn It was typical Hampton Inn breakfast which is never anything to write home aboutOur room appeared to be recently renovated and was very nice/clean It was not the king bed room I reserved, but we sleep on a queen at home, so no big dealThe staff was very friendly and the shuttle to Reagan Airport was reasonably quick when we called for it They will also check your bags in the hotel if you arrive early or are departing later in the afternoon We found this to be helpful an prevented an early check in charge

We had a great experience with this hotel Our stay was short due to a layover at the airport We got in late, but the shuttle still picked us up

The front desk staff were very nice and accommodated us well This was nice because we had been in airports all day and were very tired We left early that morning and the shuttle didn’t miss a beat in getting us back to the airport on time Great job!

The hotel location was amazing and super close to a lot of DC attractions But was disappointed to find out there was no housekeeping included I was there for three nights and needed housekeeping but not included

Also there is no pool or complimentary breakfast Just a gym Otherwise hotel was clean but in my opinion not worth it for the price Wish I knew about all of this before I booked, I would’ve bought a better hotel for $500 Also hotel parking is $33 a night Ridiculous

I should have read reviewsPros: It’s really close to an amazing Thai restaurant and Harris Teeter It’s walkable to the Potomac River and a park

Location is perfect for travelers It has good AC and the bed and pillows are comfy The staff were really friendlyCons: There is no early check-in, so when you get there, there is a line out the door and it takes nearly 30 minutes to check-in One of the elevators was broken, so it took forever to get to the room This hotel also doesn’t have anything included (the free wifi is really slow) Parking is $32 a night, water bottles left in the room aren’t free There is no microwave…NO MICROWAVE The coffee isn’t very good in the room The showers don’t drain well Customer service wasn’t helpful I called multiple times to confirm that the location I stayed at had a pool and both times the person I spoke to verified it did One part of the website also said there was a pool, or I misread…The specific room details said that a pool wasn’t an included amenity but photos of the location and calls to the hotel said otherwise When you call, you apparently don’t get people at the location

I found the location too far from any of the main sites Way too far for me I also did not feel safe in the area where it is located

There are homeless tents very close by Some of the homeless were aggressive in approaching me I did not feel safe to leave the hotel after dark which affected my stay I will not stay there againThe hotel staff and restaurant/bar staff were very nice and helpful

kay

There are so many great things about this hotel! For one, the location of the hotel is very convenient if you are visiting DC as a tourist! White House, Washington Monument, etc is less than half an hour away! Hotel is beautiful and well maintained

I would have given 5 stars, but I didn’t have the best experience customer service wise Checking in was smooth, but when asking questions regarding accommodations or correcting a charge issue my family and I were met with an attitude I recommend the hotel to others, but prepare to deal with that energy
