The Willard

Staying at the Willard Hotel is a sublime experience! This is my second time 08/22 staying here. The last time was back in 07/08. Nevertheless, the Willard’s standards of excellence have not slipped! We stayed in a standard room which was clean and well-stocked with Nespresso coffees and tees. The bed was firm yet comfortable. The linens and pillows were soft, and there were plenty of deluxe towels.The magnificent lobby and first level are filled with plenty of history. The hotel even has its own museum. The historical Round Robin bar still serves excellent cocktails. Don’t forget to look up at the gold leaf ceiling lobby to find your state’s emblem. Very impressive to see all 50 states represented! We will certainly stay at The Willard when we return to Washington. You are centrally located to all major sites and are 1,500 feet from The White House.

Beautiful hotel, lovely and helpful staff that make you feel cared for. Everything is high quality and ornate. The only issue I had were the toilet and shower. The toilet had super low water pressure and had to be flushed in a certain way to work, and there was no hot water in the shower. None at all. The hottest it got was barely lukewarm. I think it’s because the pipes are older? That put a little damper on the trip but I still enjoyed my stay.

Fantastic hotel with an amazing history that includes Abraham Lincoln and other Presidents. The lobby is beautiful. Afternoon tea was wonderful with a great tea selection and delicious finger sandwiches, scones and pastries. Fantastic service. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The rooms were spacious and very nicely appointed. Great location just a short walk to the White House.

Came here for a birthday. So glad I did. Very relaxing atmosphere. Staff pleasant and cares about you. Very quiet rooms and plenty of hot water. Centrally located. A very nice friendly comfortable stay. Kudos to front desk. Best I've seen ever.Rooms: 5/5

The main reason for two stars is the price to quality ratio. The hotel itself is beautiful as well as historic and conveniently located. I don't mind paying more but this was not in line with what other similar quality hotels charged. The plumbing was wonky. Our sink wouldn't drain the first evening. They fixed it the next day. The hand shower was difficult to operate, and it took a visit from engineering to get it to work. There seemed to be a lot of wear in the bathroom. The staff kindly provided disposable ear buds. The staff were all polite, kind, and seemed to do their best to respond to our issues. It was an ok stay for a lot of money.

Very good hotel. Although it is an old hotel in DC, But the beautiful decoration makes the place very luxurious, Especially the lobby section, And the service is also very good. The bed here can let me sleep well, And delicious food, The afternoon tea and bar will not disappoint you either. Next time in DC, I would still choose here!

a fine location for the most part. historic for many reasons, it definitely could use some upgrades. shower had almost no water pressure 12 floors up, and the water would go in and out of hot. room was clean, staff was friendly, lobby is beautiful. alarm clock went off at 6AM, which i would’ve assumed would be a normal thing to check when changing a room over for a new guest. 8.7/10
