Salamander Washington DC

The front desk staff and Mr. Farhan Samson and his staff went above and beyond to help with making our stay at the Salamander Hotel a very pleasant one.

Family and I decided to stay here because of their partnership with American Express FHR and the perks that came with. We were greeted by the friendliest front desk agent Tavi. He is AWESOME! He found us an amazing suite upgrade for the one night we stayed there and gave us a practical rundown of all the ways we could effectively use the many Amex perks. He went above and beyond to make my family and I feel very welcome and comfortable during our stay. Tavi is the reason we will be returning to this hotel in the future. Get this man a raise!!!

Overall this is a beautiful property with very nice amenities. However, I must say we were very disappointed that the pool was closed for a private spa event the first night we were there. We are traveling with our children and specifically choose a hotel with a pool to enjoy that amenity. That seems pretty inconsiderate of your full guest list to shut down the pool and there was only a tiny sign indicating it was closed on the pool level. THEN, two nights later we attempted to enjoy your bar area only to find out that IT WAS CLOSED for a private event. Again, what about the rest of your guest list? Is there not ANY other option for a bar? Or, location for a private event? We are paying far to much to be staying at this level of hotel to not have access to the amenities. On the positive side, the check in experience was excellent and the housekeeping staff was amazing. The room was always cleaned impeccably and the common areas were well kept. We also enjoyed the gym.

The location is perfect. You're walking distance to the National Mall, restaurants, the Wharf and the Jefferson Memorial. The staff were among the best we've met at any hotel. The views from our room were unmatched.

The staff here is unbelievable! The room is well appointed. It's so beautiful. I was greeted by the most amazing team member and I had to share her name is Lenetra. Hope you have the pleasure of meeting her, five stars all around!

Sofia at the concierge desk was a lovely help. Room was always perfect.

Awesome hotel. I enjoyed the pool and the gym. Be careful to read your bill on check out as they to hide fees. Other than that the experience was awesome.
