One of the nicest hotels we've ever stayed in. Facilities, restaurant, room, location were excellent. (walking distant to everything Washington).But what made this hotel stand out over the many, many that weve stayed in over the years (weve traveled all over the world, stayed in some of the finest hotels)were the employees. From bellman, to housekeeping, front desk, resturant servers the entire staff were most friendly, helpful and attentive. It was obvious they were happy in thier work and it showed. The concierge really knew DC and nailed excellent restaurant recommendations every meal. Dont stay anywhere else in Washington DC.
