The Watergate is the most luxurious hotel I have stayed in to date, and it definitely reflects that. I think while the exterior is showing its age with the dated architecture, the interior and the staff do all they can and then some to make up for it. The lobby is beautiful, and so are the rooms. I almost forgot the views of the Potomac also did their fair share of helping with the exterior too. Overall, one of the best experiences I have ever had in a hotel.

Front desk staff was lovely and helpful. I did not receive VIP access—and not one mentioned it. The roof is terribly dirty and the food much too overpriced. Hallways and rooms are in need of updates.

The service was LACKING to say the least. Restaurant host on a break so a person with a handful of cotton candy finally summoned a waiter to seat us (9PM on a Friday, 3 tables in the restaurant); room NOT cleaned at all by 6PM one day - took another 40 minutes to get someone there; requested additional towels and pillows via email prior to arrival- not there; was our anniversary and made hotel aware - mot even a note; requested museum suggestions from concierge prior to arrival- never replied; huge leak in lobby 2 times during our stay; HUGE cockroach in gym while i was changing; area around hotel but on property, run down; people staying in hotel with pets letting their animals relieve themselves in the front lawn under the sign that said NO PETS ON GRASS. As bad as all this was, Front Office Director Yarisa Almodovar was a STAND OUT problem solver and by far then shining beacon of hope in our weekend- the reason we left happy in the end. Sad because the property has such history and could be a FAB time capsule camp decor property that people WANT to stay in.
