This is a beautiful property in a great location. All the staff from the concierge, doorman, and front desk were all friendly and welcoming. We had a great stay. We come to DC often and decided based on this visit this is our new go to place.
Incredible stay for our anniversary trip! Great views from our balcony room on the 12th floor. Zahra made our anniversary so special. Love the staff all around and the hotel was clean and well decorated. Loved the lighting system. The restaurant downstairs was delicious for breakfast and had excellent vanilla lattes. I highly recommend!
My wife and I have stayed at several InterContinental properties, and our recent stay at your hotel was by far one of the best experiences we have had.
What made our visit truly exceptional was your staff. Everyone was remarkably attentive and consistently ensured all of our needs were met.
The Wharf District offered plenty to do for a family with teenagers, plus a wide variety of dining options. The hotel location, staff, cleanliness, accommodations, and amenities were excellent.
We had a room with a beautiful view. The car valet guy Teddy was amazing. He was super helpful. I parked my car on my own and the hotel already charged me for valet so the person at the front desk told me I should get the car and have the valet guys park it. It was late at night, raining an I was so n shorts. So I told Teddy about the situation and he told me that he would get my car. I was so thankful!! I felt lucky to have such a caring man to spare me from walking in the freezing cold night to find my car.
Room service was ok. They messed our order 2 times but were very apologetic.
Location of the hotel was perfect! In such a cool spot central to restaurants and shopping…
The hotel is very nice. We were greeted by Adrianne who was very polite and super friendly. Room was bigger than I expected and very clean and modern with lots of USB ports. Great drinks and staff at the restaurant. Great location too. We will return
