While I enjoyed some dining options at the hotel, including the Whiskey Bar, the breakfast was on the pricey side. The high-quality experience at the bar made up for some dining disappointments.

The hotel boasts beautiful decor and well-maintained common areas, but the spa facilities and pool supervision left much to be desired. I found the lack of loungers in the pool area quite limiting.

I chose the Watergate Hotel for my 50th wedding anniversary, and while the views of the Potomac were stunning, my experience was somewhat mixed. The warm check-in and thoughtful touches like a handwritten note and treats in the room were lovely. but the loud elevator noises disrupted my sleep, leading to a less than restful stay. Overall, the hotel has charm and history, though there were some service issues that could improve the experience.

I had a nice experience at The Watergate Hotel, largely due to the superb service and picturesque views. However, the room did have some quirks, such as thin walls and the occasional noise that disrupted my sleep. Overall, it was a solid stay that I'd consider repeating, with a preference for a different room.

My room was spacious with a wraparound balcony, offering lovely views of the river and Georgetown, but the layout of the bathroom was a bit odd. I was also disappointed with the noise levels from connecting rooms and heard some loud banging noises a couple of nights. Despite some maintenance issues like a hot water problem, the staff were quick to rectify it.

The hotel’s location is perfect for exploring DC, especially being so close to Georgetown and the waterfront. I enjoyed running along the canal area, which was a lovely experience away from the busier mall vicinity. It's very convenient for anyone looking to visit major attractions.

My stay at The Watergate Hotel was filled with moments of luxury mixed with a few hiccups. The beautiful décor and friendly staff made for a welcoming atmosphere. However, the room’s quirks, like noisy neighbors and occasional issues with hot water, took away from the experience a bit. Overall, I'd return, but I'd request a different room next time to enhance my stay.

I stayed in room 505, which was spacious with a king bed and a wraparound balcony. Though the views from one side were lovely, the noise from connected rooms was quite distracting at times. The bathroom layout was a bit odd with a combined tub and shower, and there was a brief problem with hot water, although they fixed it quickly.
