Grand Hyatt Washington

10/10 Excellent

"My daughters and I stayed here for Columbus weekend (college tours!!) and this is an ideal location to be centrally located to any place you’d need to be in DC. There’s a Metro stop BELOW THE HOTEL and it’s so easy to figure out and get around. The hotel was lovely, safe and the gym was amazing. Our train was super delayed and I discovered our fridge didn’t work at 1:15 am but then woman at the front desk was more than happy to keep my daughter’s insulin cold in their fridge! We will definitely be staying here again in the future!"

10/10 Excellent

"I had a great stay here! At first, I was concerned that it was going to be noisy because my room was off of the central atrium, but it was not. My room was a nice size, and having a desk I could work at was great. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!"
