Very nice clean room. Christmas decorations in the lobby were really pretty. Starbucks in the lobby is always a great convenience. Staff was helpful with bags and check in was easy and fast. Lots of Christmas lights outside close to the hotel are wonderful and more than usual for DC. Great shopping and wonderful restaurants nearby. Ask for a room with a city view.
My son and I had an exceptional stay at The Westin Downtown DC. The hotel is immaculate, beautifully maintained, and delivers a truly elevated experience from start to finish. Every detail reflects quality, comfort, and professionalism.
During our stay, we had a small matter that needed to be addressed, and Brett Haduch, the manager, went above and beyond to resolve it. His professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine care made us feel like true five-star guests. The way he handled the situation exemplifies outstanding leadership and customer service.
The entire staff was incredible in every way—courteous, attentive, and consistently welcoming. I highly recommend The Westin Downtown DC and would absolutely stay here again. An outstanding hotel with an exceptional team.
This property was conveniently situated with plenty of dining options nearby. A quiet room with a comfortable bed was just what we wanted for our stay.
Great stay, very clean, very nice inside rooms, will definitely be staying there again!
Plus got free tickets to a museum $30 food credit and free waters.
