9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,663 reviews)
One of the best hotel experiences as a family. We stayed for two nights. The staff - from the front desk to the valet to the servers in the restaurant- we’re all courteous and attentive. The breakfast in the hotel restaurant was excellent.
The only thing that would have made the room more comfortable was if the A/C unit wasn’t placed right above our beds. The noise and direct wind (in “circulation” mode) made it not ideal. But not a big deal. We would stay here again if we return to DC.
