Spa Hotels in Washington D.C.

My wife and I stayed at the Salamander overnight before our flight out of Dulles to Tanzania. To preface this review, I specifically booked this hotel due to past experience with Mandarin Oriental, so I was disappointed to hear of the exchange but gave it a shot anyway. I was disappointed with check in, with the staff, and with the general atmosphere. The hotel itself was clean, the finishes were decent, and the spa area is very nice...I just don't feel they warrant the price tag when the other variables are lacking. We arrived around 11:30, I had informed months before that the arrival would be around 12. We were told it wasn't guaranteed, but they would put that one in priority to be ready. Upon our arrival, we're told it is just awaiting inspection and it should be no later than 12:30. No problem, we visited The Lounge for lunch. We wrapped up around 12:30 and the weather precluded us from exploring much outside the hotel. Long story short, our room was not ready until 2:40. I acknowledge that check in time is actually 3, but had it been presented that way, we would have gotten a taxi and went elsewhere to kill 3 hours. The staff did not seem very invested in the hotel or interested in us. In my experience, something that sets 5 star hotels apart is the staff willingness to go the extra mile, to make a note to check back in with you, and to always be present. Between the doormen not paying attention, the front desk giving no updates on the room status without prodding, and waiting at the Lounge hostess stand for several minutes before going down to the bar and asking the bartender if we should seat ourselves (he found the hostess), it was just lacking. I don't need someone to hold my door or be worried about us sitting in the chairs by the front desk for 2 hours, but I paid for that experience and did not get it. Lastly, the general atmosphere...it just did not have a 5 star vibe. In 5 stars, folks are walking around, ensuring nothing is out of place and everything is picture perfect. This was not the case, the lobby restroom was in a bit of disarray...no one ensured that folks were there to help. It was just disappointing. All that to say...the place is clean, it is nice, you won't be disappointed there. But I believe I would have gotten better service at the Hilton down the road for half the price. Or we've stayed at the Park Hyatt in DC previously and absolutely adored the staff and facilities.

Clean specious rooms with a coffee machine. Wanted to compliment David in security on night duty. Hotel surround has some unsavory characters but hotel has very good security to watch out for its guests Good option for DC for location. Restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Lift a bit temperamental

Truly phenomenal experience in Washington DC. We are a family of 6, our youngest is 14. This particular Ritz-Carlton is absolutely wonderful for a family staying multiple days for the 4th of July. We booked rooms with Club Access, which made it wonderfully convenient for everyone to grab fresh breakfast before we headed out for the day, as well as fun snacks at night after a long day of sightseeing. DC in July can be really hot and humid, and the Ritz made it so that our teens loved the hotel experience. I want to highlight the professionalism of the management and staff. We had a slightly odd interaction with one staff member in the Club, but the general manager of the hotel was impeccably professional and everything was smooth sailing. The hotel is well-managed and the staff are all so kind and thoughtful. We were sad to leave, it was such a wonderful experience to celebrate the 4th of July in DC at the Ritz-Carlton.

Come to DC to live in Park Hyatt for 3 days. The area where you are located should be good. If you take a taxi, you can't go anywhere, but if you take the subway, there is still a distance from the subway station. The doorman is more welcoming. The only drawback is that the three nights of staying in the hotel did not change the toiletries once.

An amazing experience from being greeted at the entrance and front desk to the time we said goodbye. The hotel is in a great location if you're interested in Georgetown. Rooms and staff are simply first-rate. And that BED! The famous Four Seasons bed and bedding ..simply bliss. This was my first stay at a Four Seasons, but it will be my first choice from now on.

Alone, The InterContinental Hotel, nestled in the center of dc's New wharf district, is pleasant and comfortable. But what really made my trip memorable, and many in my group, was the amazing lobby and desk staff. My first interaction with Aries at the door was incredibly warm and genuine. His always pleasant attitude and dedication to service made for a pleasantly comfortable arrival. This continued throughout my stay, a pleasant 'good morning Mr. Todd” each day helped set my mood for the coming hours of intense business. Renita, at the desk, checked me in with proficiency and kindness. During my stay, Renita was always ready to assist with the many requests and concerns I brought to her attention. This intelligent and thoughtful women was always looking for ways to enhance my, and my groups, experience. Later in the evening I got to meet the superstars of the night. Aiman, Jamar (”Teenie”), Nico, Dimitri and Jay are hospitality's finest. Their constant attention to detail and anticipation of my needs was a blessing each evening. Their care was genuine and abundant. Always eager to assist! Of course, thanks go out to Sopha for leading such a friendly and professional team! I departed with a warm heart filled with new memories of an amazing staff and hotel. The hotel views are amazing and the beds were extremely comfortable! Hope to be back soon1

I wasn’t sure what to expect based on pictures alone, but our stay at this hotel was exceptional. Beautiful hotel lobby, beautifully appointed, comfortable and quiet rooms. Yet you can walk right out of the hotel and be on the bustling streets of Georgetown. The staff was equally exceptional- bellmen, wait staff and attendants. It was my daughter’s birthday and we were traveling alone. They had placed us in a first floor room but upon learning we were traveling alone they moved us to the 5th floor with a beautiful view. They also treated my daughter to birthday dessert after returning from an evening of shopping. Thoughtful staff, beautiful hotel and rooms in a quiet location within walking distance of everything in Georgetown. We will stay again!

1era Vez en un Pendry, Hotel nuevo, con lindo diseño, moderno, muy buena zona de piscina (aunque pudiera ser climatizada), la habitación y baño también con buen diseño y moderna de tamaño justo y con limitado espacio para guardado de ropa y equipaje, cama muy cómoda y buenos amenities aunque con algunos faltantes para la categoría que pretende, lo mismo para el servicio, por eso no le di 5 estrellas, le falta eso que sorprenda y que si tienen otras cadenas de lujo ese mimo extra, ese saludo, esa sonrisa de quienes te reciben cada día, de las 5 noches que pasamos en el hotel, solo 2 noches había quien te abriera la puerta y saludara algo mínimo para este tipo de hotel, si es la verdad que la persona que si estuvo esas 2 noches era super amable aunque no se su nombre para mencionarlo, también fueron amables las personas de housekeeping aunque sería mejor no tener que estar reclamando x faltantes o esperar al telefóno 10 minutos para que alguien atienda, tampoco ofrecen servicio de Turn Dawn a pesar de que antes de reservar nos habían dicho que si, al estar en el hotel nos dijeron que eso estaba reservado solo para determinado tipo de habitaciones, el bar del rooftop es bastante popular por lo que a las noches el vestíbulo se llena y complica el acceso a los ascensores a pesar de que tienen un ascensor exclusivo para esto, también tienen personal que habla español en la recepción y es muy amable así que si lo necesitan pueden solicitarlo, la zona es de lo mejor, lleno de restaurantes, lugares para pasear y pasar el rato hasta tarde en la noche y todos los días de la semana, buen ambiente, mucha gente divirtiéndose y pasándola bien, botes, muelles, fogones, sin dudarlo para nosotros fue la mejor zona de DC para hospedarnos y poder disfrutar de la ciudad y de esta parte de nuestras vacaciones de 1 mes en USA A pesar de los pequeños detalles mencionados que espero puedan mejorarlos no dudo de que si volviéramos a DC volveríamos a elegir este hotel y esta zona ya que fueron parte de nuestra excelentes vacaciones en DC

The price is expensive and the service is great. At night, I will place Evian mineral water and cups on the bedside table, place foot mats next to the bed and washstand, fill the ice cubes with ice cubes, and turn on the sleep aid music. It is in all hotels I have stayed abroad the best.

This place was amazing for us. The biggest draw was the two bedroom suites (with two bathrooms), which are super hard to find and make it great for families with small kids. The pool and hot tub helped too, but what we didn't know was that they would try so hard to be a great family friendly destination. They had a Family Movie Night, such a hit with my kids with popcorn, candy, and soda. Also, they did a BBQ on the patio, which was also so nice. The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly and always had a nice and pleasant word. They even gave the kids a toy from the treasure chest at our departure. They were so stoked. Also, its a great location for visiting DC, we did the Spy Museum, the American Indian Museum and the Botanical Garden, all within walking distance. We also drove to the zoo. Its an easy spot for cabs to pick you up. There aren't a TON of food options super close by but you can walk 15 minutes to the Wharf for great food and music options. It was just perfect for what we needed. Louise at the front desk helped us split our checks, and the gentleman who made all the activities happen was great as well. We appreciate you. And everyone was super helpful, from extending checkout to whatever we needed. Also the buffet had everything you could ask for, even a waffle machine with all the fixings, which was obviously also a big hit with the kids! We will definitely be back.
