I was genuinely surprised by how impressive this hotel turned out to be—especially compared to most other hotels I've stayed in across the U.S., which tend to feel quite basic or outdated. The Willard Washington D.C. exceeded all my expectations in terms of both quality and value. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from major attractions like the White House and Capitol Hill, making it super convenient for exploring the city. The rooms are spacious, clean, and beautifully designed with a timeless elegance. But what really stood out were the on-site dining options—the restaurant and coffee shop offered far better food quality and atmosphere than I anticipated. Service was attentive without being overbearing, and the overall vibe felt refined yet welcoming. It's rare to find such a well-balanced experience outside of big cities like New York or Miami. If you're visiting Washington D.C., this is definitely one of the top choices. I’d absolutely stay here again and recommend it to any traveler looking for comfort, style, and great value.

The lobby is absolutely stunning—grand, elegant, and unlike anything I've experienced before. The Bazaar restaurant is a real highlight, with a vibrant atmosphere and cuisine that feels both creative and refined. Every dish was a delight, and the service was impeccable. But the room? Absolutely perfect—spacious, luxurious, and impeccably designed. From the plush bedding to the thoughtful amenities, every detail lived up to the Waldorf Astoria name. It’s not just a stay; it’s an experience. If you’re looking for a truly memorable getaway in Washington DC, this is the place. I’ll be back.

I had an excellent stay at this hotel and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The room was spotlessly clean, with fresh linens and a nice morning coffee setup along with hot water—perfect for starting the day. The third-floor fitness center offers free water, which is a thoughtful touch. The self-service laundry is affordable at just $3.50, a great value for longer stays. While bottled water is only complimentary for Hilton Honors members ($5 for non-members), it’s still reasonable given the convenience. One of the highlights? A large supermarket right outside the building on the upper level—super convenient for grabbing snacks or essentials. The room even comes with a microwave, making meal prep easy. It’s just a 200-meter walk to the metro station, so getting around Washington D.C. is super easy. The area feels safe and well-connected, ideal for exploring the city. The only minor note: the elevator makes a bit of a whooshing sound when moving—slightly noticeable but not bothersome. Staff were always polite and helpful, and my deposit was refunded quickly. Overall, this hotel delivers comfort, convenience, and great service. I’d definitely come back.

I appreciated that they required a $100 credit card pre-authorization upon check-in, but no actual charges were made—just a standard security hold. Plus, within a 10-minute walk, you’ll find **舅, which offers great dining options and adds to the neighborhood’s charm. Whether you're here for business or leisure, this place delivers comfort, cleanliness, and excellent value. Highly recommend for travelers who want a hassle-free stay in a vibrant, central area.

The lobby is impressively grand and open, giving an elegant first impression as soon as you walk in.

Perfect for sightseeing without needing to rely on taxis or rideshares. There’s also a shopping complex nearby, with convenient access to dining and retail options.

Overall, this hotel offers outstanding value, comfort, and accessibility—definitely my go-to choice for future trips to Washington, D.C.

The apartment had a strong musty odor and felt very poorly ventilated, making the stay uncomfortable. When issues arose during our visit, the staff was completely unhelpful and unresponsive—no communication at all. We were promised a partial refund in writing, but after checking out, they refused to honor it without any explanation. This lack of integrity and customer service is unacceptable. I wouldn’t recommend this property to anyone looking for a reliable, clean, and respectful stay. Avoid it.

I stayed at WhyHotel by Placemakr, Union Market while visiting my son in Washington, D.C., and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The staff here are genuinely kind and go above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. Special shoutout to Gregori Capella and Breona Pinkney—two outstanding team members who truly care about their guests. Their professionalism and warm hospitality made a lasting impression. The hotel is perfectly located, just steps away from public transit and local attractions, making it easy to explore the city. Clean, modern rooms with thoughtful touches, and an overall vibe that feels both comfortable and welcoming. If this hotel were a chain, I’d say Gregori should be the head manager across all locations—and Breona absolutely deserves a major promotion. This place is a gem and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

I stayed at Global Luxury Suites at Tribeca in Washington, DC, expecting a comfortable and secure experience—but unfortunately, it turned out to be a major disappointment. On September 14, 2024, I left the hotel with my family from 11 AM to 4 PM. When I returned, I discovered that two watches (including a Rolex), a diamond bracelet, and a ring were missing. I reported this immediately to the concierge, but their response was delayed and uncooperative. I filed a police report and requested access to surveillance footage from that time frame—so far, no video has been provided, and communication from the management remains minimal. To make matters worse, upon check-in, staff couldn’t locate my key card and had to recalibrate it manually. I also noticed the key fob cover was missing when I arrived—a red flag I didn’t address at the time. Now, with over $10,000 worth of jewelry stolen, and the investigation ongoing, I can’t help but feel the management is not being transparent. This isn’t just poor service—it’s a serious breach of trust. I strongly advise against staying here. Your belongings may not be safe.

Staying at The Architect Hotel was a truly refreshing experience in Washington D.C. While the room is compact, the bathroom is surprisingly spacious and well-maintained—definitely a plus for comfort. The bedding was clean and crisp, perfect for a couple’s stay. On the ground floor, complimentary hot water and coffee are available, making morning routines easy and enjoyable. Its location is fantastic—just a short walk to the White House and major museums, ideal for sightseeing without needing transport. Compared to New York, D.C. feels calmer and less crowded, with fewer flashy outfits on the streets. Locals tend to be polite rather than overly expressive, which suits my preference. I especially appreciated the staff at the hotel and the transit station—many of them were Black men and women who worked diligently and went out of their way to help. Their kindness and professionalism stood out, reminding me that respect goes both ways. This place isn’t just about great convenience or design—it’s about human connection. If you’re looking for a quiet, authentic taste of the nation’s capital with thoughtful touches, this hotel delivers. Highly recommend for travelers who value simplicity, cleanliness, and genuine hospitality.

This place was an absolute gem I stumbled upon by chance. Located just a short walk from Union Station and Capitol Hill, it’s incredibly convenient for exploring the city. I arrived late at night—well past midnight—and yet the 24-hour concierge was there to greet me warmly and assist instantly when I realized I’d forgotten the email with my access codes. A quick call to the 24/7 support line resolved everything in minutes. The suite itself is spacious, bright, and airy, impeccably clean, and fully equipped with brand-new kitchenware, cookware, and tableware—everything you’d need for a home-cooked meal. There’s also a cozy lounge area perfect for unwinding. The rooftop pool is generously sized, ideal for laps, and the fitness center, shared with the adjacent Marriott, is huge and well-maintained, with all equipment working perfectly. I never saw more than six or eight people during my visits—so quiet and peaceful. Several supermarkets are within a five-minute walk, making grocery runs super easy. Even better, the front desk happily allowed me to store my luggage after check-out and let me work from their relaxed lobby space throughout the day. This level of service and thoughtfulness really sets the place apart. Highly recommend for travelers who value comfort, convenience, and a touch of luxury.
