Great time here. Valet parking was the best. You can come and go as many times as you need to without paying extra. You text down when you need to go and they get your car for you so you don’t have to stand outside and wait. A real Starbucks on site in the lobby and metro right under the hotel. Perfect location near museums.

Najm at the front desk went over the top to make our stay wonderful. Each day he helped us decide what sights to see and drew it out on the map. Every time he saw us within the hotel lobby he waved and asked how our day was. The full breakfast was delicious and a little different each day. The staff was attentive and the restaurant and buffet area were spotless. The room was clean and comfy. The staff made up our room in a timely manner. Overall a wonderful stay!

The Hilton was a great pit stop to heading home. Loved that it was close to every museum in Washington. Also, the restaurant bar & grill was amazing. The food was great, and the service was great. The hotel it self was clean, and the staff were professional. Would definitely stay here and recommend it to anyone visiting DC.

We liked that the hotel was close to a lot of Museums & Monuments. Also within walking distance of The Wharf; which had a lot of restaurants & shopping. We didn’t like that the person that stayed in the room before us, set the alarm at 7:30 am & we had no instructions on how to reset/turn off. Also remote to tv didn’t work & we couldn’t turn the tv off.

Staff was pretty nice. Room was amazing + they upgraded me to a better room with a pool view for FREE. There’s literally a Starbucks in the lobby… can’t get any better than that (AND THE COFFEE IS GREAT. The baristas actually wanna work). Definitely will be staying her again!
