Guest Reviews
- MOHAMAD (7/5): Good and bad ! - Location Part of the service Receptionists staff are amazing The concierge was very bad . 45 min to bring the bags . The room reservation team were unprofessional, I had to change the hotel to move to another one .
- NDTT (10/5): Great staff in a great location with a beautiful room! Great combo for a wonderful stay in DC - Wow — there truly are not enough wonderful words to describe the kindness of the staff at this hotel. Alexandros, who assisted me at check-in, went absolutely above and beyond throughout my entire stay. Not only was he warm and welcoming upon arrival, but he also remembered me during my stay and repeatedly checked in to make sure I was well taken care of and enjoying everything. That level of attentiveness and genuine hospitality is incredibly rare and deeply appreciated. It is because of exceptional staff members like Alexandros that I have stayed at this hotel previously and will continue to make it my hotel of choice whenever I visit Washington, DC. My room was spectacular, with an unforgettable iconic view to wake up to each morning. Breakfast was delicious as well, but what truly sets this hotel apart is the kindness, professionalism, and attentiveness of the staff. This stay was absolutely wonderful, and I am already looking forward to returning.

- alexhaley86 (10/5): Wonderful, personable stay - My husband and I stayed at the Waldorf this week for business meetings. The room was wonderful, the hotel is beautiful and they staff is truly top notch. Jered at the bar remembered our names day after day. Brian out front is such a kind converser and he also remembers names. I think these are very important touches to make guests feel very welcome!
- Marsham (10/5): -
- 406zenaj (10/5): Waldorf hospitality sets the bar high - My husband and I stayed at the Waldorf Astoria for the Cherry Blossom 10 mile run. We were chatting with Erin about the run while she checked us into our room and she offered to send up some immunity shots help us prepare. This was such a thoughtful and kind gesture that went a long way. She also sent us a fruit plate as we were talking about how bananas help prevent muscle cramping. Not only did we feel more welcome to the city, it showed that she cared about us not only as guests, but as individuals. It was an incredible and personable experience that made our trip, his run and our time in DC fantastic. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Waldorf and Erin!
- Guest (10/5): -
- annamK9121IU (10/5): Wonderful trip to the Waldorf Astoria Washington DC - We had the most wonderful family trip to Washington, DC, and our stay at the Waldorf Astoria truly made it unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. We were generously upgraded to a beautiful suite, which was perfect for our family and made our stay feel extra special. The hotel itself is stunning and impeccably maintained. Every detail feels thoughtful and luxurious without being overdone. What truly set this experience apart was the concierge team. They were outstanding. From securing hard-to-get restaurant reservations to helping us plan museum visits and tickets, they made everything seamless and stress-free. The location is unbeatable. We were a few blocks from the White House and within easy walking distance to the museums, which made exploring the city incredibly convenient for our family. We left feeling so grateful for such a memorable experience and cannot wait to return.
- Kayla (10/5): -
- lindalK4669CU (6/5): Could be a great hotel. - I had read the reviews on TripAdvisor and was looking forward to my stay at the Waldorf Astoria. This hotel is missing the wow. Our hotel room was nice, but there was nothing that made it feel special. We received a $50 credit per night and tried to use it for breakfast. We ate ate the Peacock Allry the first 2 mornings , but ate elsewhere the other 3 days we were in DC. We tried the desserts one night. How can you mess up a dessert? This could be a great hotel, but it’s definitely is missing something.
- AdrienneBtravelling (10/5): Magical Memories - Our visit to the DC Waldorf Astoria was magical from the moment they opened our car door. Every single staff member made a significant effort to get to know us and find ways to make our stay memorable. Within seconds, the valet staff had told front reception that we were celebrating our anniversary. And the next thing we knew, a gentleman was at door with a bottle of champagne and two beautiful desserts. Aleksander was a delight to encounter every day. I’d go back just to see him again. And the personal Concierge service did an amazing job of putting together a picnic lunch for us to enjoy underneath the cherry blossoms. We’re hoping to make it an annual event!
- makdag2026 (10/5): If You Go Here, Look for Mahi - Such a beautiful hotel. Mahi was such a gem! her hospitality was truly top-tier. It’s rare to come across someone so genuine and welcoming.She really made the experience amazing and was I had a great experience overall.
- gregmL8081RQ (10/5): The very best in hotels - I have traveled the world but Waldorf Astoria DC is one my very favorites. From the moment arrive they make me feel like I home Ishmeal waiter in Peacock Alley has been serving me since when it was a Trump hotel he is a great waiter. I also want you to Danish the doorman is wonderful he remembered me from previous stays and is always so helpful. Gulcin front desk manger I can't say enough good things about her she is wonderful and is the very best! The caviar/champagne event was not only delicious but informative Also Linda a server at Bazaar I have had her as a server 3 different times and she is truly one of the best servers I have ever had
- Z700OXbrians (10/5): Great anniversary weekend at the Waldorf Astoria DC - Wonderful experience this past weekend at the Waldorf Astoria in Washington DC. It was our 28th anniversary and the hotel staff went out of their way to ensure that we had a special weekend. Thank you very much for the special attention, and we will look forward to our next visit!
- Camper775038 (10/5): Seeing DC - Beautiful Hotel. Staff was incredible especially Danish.
- Devilsbbq (2/5): Would never waste money on this hotel again - DC The worst "luxury" hotel stay I've ever had. Management here should be ashamed of themselves. I checked in and I was put into a room that had an adjoining door to another room. The kids in that room-with a paper thin door-were crying, shouting, and trying to open the adjoining door between the two rooms. Not once did the parents correct them. After several hours of this I asked if we could switch rooms. I was moved into a "quiet" room. Next to a crowded, loud party. All night. Singing, screaming, slamming doors, running around the hallway. Trash was thrown all over the hallway the next morning. I stepped over greasy pizza boxes when I left for breakfast. Housekeeping was carting out trays of empty liquor bottles and glasses. I addressed this with the front desk. They sent a slice of cake to my room. A rep called me and told me that their security team had been called the evening before and they had to "talk to the guests in the next room because they were making other guests uncomfortable". I had not called them, so multiple guests had complained about these people. The hotel was very concerned about the loud guests' confidentiality, stating they "are regulars and we had no reason to think there would be multiple people in that room". I was promised a call from management which never came. I requested that the one sleepless night be refunded, yet have received zero response. A piece of cake was their offer of apology. As well as telling me I should be happy that the loud guests checked out of the hotel before I did. Unreal.
- allensI8573ZO (10/5): Perfect! - This place is truly exceptional. It’s our favorite hotel in DC, and we stay here every time we’re in town. A special thank you to Danish for always remembering our names and making everyone feel so welcome upon arrival.
- V8230ZYrobertr (2/5): I finance hotels - Worst hotel ever. Loud parties. Garbage in the hallways. Called the front desk, no one picks up the phone. Better off staying in the corridors of union station.
- W2328PWisabellal (10/5): Pure Luxury. - Truly an excellent stay. This is out second time at this waldorf location and it never disappoints. Luxurious bathroom and luxurious bed! Not only are the rooms magnificent, the concierge team is equally as wonderful. We stayed here for my husband’s bday and they made him feel so special! They surprised him with a bottle of champagne and delicious cherry blossom themed cake! Roman was fantastic and was so responsive! I do want to compare this hotel to St Regis DC. We stayed there last week, for the first time, for my daughter’s birthday. We’ve stayed in St Regis before, so figured the DC location would be great. We were so wrong!! The rooms at St Regis were old, outdated, and small. The service was below what you expect from a 5 star hotel and was more akin to a Marriott or Hilton. The bedding was terrible. Looking back, given our previous stay with Waldorf, we should have just booked Waldorf instead! So if you find yourself stuck between the two—— CHOOSE WALDORF!! I am also a diamond member with Hilton and platinum with Marriott. They treated us with a beautiful upgrade at Waldorf without asking!! They recognized our loyalty here, which was not done at St Regis. The only downside, which is out of the hotel’s control was the banging sound outside. I recommend getting the corner room or the room facing the street (not the backside) as we did not have this issue previously. Thank you Roman and the staff for really going out of your way to make my husband feel special!!!!
- eden321 (10/5): great experience - Great Ambience, great experience, staff is so high touch front desk Elizabeth, Antony is spectacular as always. All the staff is remarkable only thing is the carpets are a little outdated. The spa is also great.
- VirginiaGirl02 (10/5): Delightful experience as always - Always a great experience. 5th spring break we've done in DC and at this hotel. Doormen are always top notch. Anteneh was a delightful conversationalist and took care of us. My son received a Waldorf Cherry blossom/owl pin a few years ago that he wears on his blazer every year and Anteneh recognized it 😁 We look forward to next years Spring Break!
- S6423RNbrandonc (10/5): Great stay - I loved the entire stay! Just a gorgeous hotel. Also please stop by and see Mahi at the suit shop! She was beyond helpful! She is so sweet I can’t wait to see her again! Thank Mahi! Keep being you!
- manars888 (10/5): Excellent service, clean rooms - Odette T Shiela is top notch housekeeper who is courteous with good attention to detail. Made us feel at home and provided excellent service.
- brianneh639 (10/5): Welcoming staff at the Waldorf DC - Upon our arrival and throughout our stay, Danish greeted us at the entrance. He was friendly and welcoming as he shared navigation tips through the city and managed the vallet service for our car. The young woman at the front desk was also welcoming and kindly acknowledged our anniversary.

- Camper17017068898 (10/5): Exceptional Service That Made Our Anniversary Even More Special - We came to Waldorf to celebrate our anniversary and enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Peacock Alley Restaurant. The food and ambience made the evening really special. While walking around afterward, we noticed a men’s clothing store nearby and decided to check it out. I’m so glad we did. Mahi helped us through everything from start to finish, and her service was truly exceptional. She was welcoming, patient, and very knowledgeable. Her recommendations were thoughtful, and she made the whole experience feel personal and enjoyable. It ended up being one of the most memorable parts of our anniversary visit. Thank you, Mahi, for making our experience in Waldorf even more special. Highly recommend stopping by and asking for her!
- 742mesar (10/5): Great experience! - Great hotel, good location, excellent service. We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this property and would definitely stay here again. We had to do a room change and the staff did it so gracefully it wasn't even painful. And they even gave us a Waldorf branded plush Owl to add to our collection!
- kevinkX8245TC (10/5): Anna is a shining star! - I’ve stayed at a lot of hotels, ranging from 1 to 5 star, and have interacted with a lot of hotel staff during those visits. All of that to stay that Anna at the front desk was in the top 1% of professionals I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. She was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, kind, and thoughtful. Use her to train others, if you haven’t already identified how talented of a representative of Waldorf she is.
- Yates262 (10/5): Excellent Stay! - I’m a Hilton Diamond Member and arrived during the DC snowstorm. From the moment we drove up to the hotel until departure, everything was wonderful. I was upgraded to a lovely suite with a fantastic view of the Capitol. The king-size bed was very comfortable, and the spacious bathroom featured both a large shower and a soaking tub. I had dinner at the lobby bar last night. While it was pricey, the food, drinks, service, and ambiance were excellent. I also worked out this morning in the fitness center, which had everything you could need—towels, fresh fruit, water, and more. The Waldorf staff truly stands out. There are so many employees, and everyone is consistently helpful. I’m still amazed that they remember my last name. I was given a late checkout and they let me store my bags for a couple of hours while we waited for a friend to pick us up. Thank you for a great stay—we’ll definitely be back!

- benjaminmG6008AE (10/5): Overall experience was amazing with great service in a historic facility. - The overall experience was amazing. The quality of the service was very professional and something I have not seen at any other facility. To stay in such a historical and aesthetically pleasing building was also amazing. It is also important to note how supportive the concierge was before and during our stay. They were patient and very helping when I came to set up the different amenities upon arrival and setting up the lunch event for my team. I mentioned this to my leadership team about the incredible service provided and would recommended, when ever possible, to continue the use of Waldorf Astoria, Washington DC, for this type of business meeting / award ceremony.
- DzX97 (10/5): Patriotic, Elegance, and Monument Views: My Go-to in DC - Staying at the Waldorf Astoria Washington DC feels exactly how a trip to the nation’s capital should. From the moment you see the oversized flags at the entrance and step into the soaring atrium, there is a sense of patriotic scale that is hard to find elsewhere. A Room with a View The Grand Corner Room is stunning. The elegance of the interior design is top-tier, but the real highlight is the view. Having a direct line of sight to the Washington Monument from both the bed and the desk is a world-class experience. It turns a standard work moment or a morning coffee into something special. The Atrium & Peacock Alley is a beautiful space to spend time in. I particularly enjoyed the seasonal decorations and flowers hung from the metal scaffold ceilings. While the Willard Hotel’s Peacock Alley nearby still holds the top spot for me in terms of pure beauty, the Waldorf's version is a very close second and provides a great atmosphere. Wellness & Recovery I was pleasantly surprised to find a salt room in the spa. It’s an amenity I don’t really expect at a US hotel, but it was excellent for respiratory and skin health, a perfect way to decompress after a day of walking the National Mall. History & Location The building has a fascinating history, having served as the Trump International Hotel during President Trump’s first term. If you are a fan of that chapter of history, staying here while he is in the White House adds a unique significance to the experience. Combined with the supreme convenience of being within walking distance to almost everything, it is a definitive choice for a DC visit.
- katie (5/5): -
- xiao (8/5): 细节不够华尔道夫的正牌华尔道夫 - 位置很棒，主要景点步行可达。入住时被升级了房间，意外惊喜。餐食不错，热巧克力很好喝。 入住时告诉前台我们在booking上的预定包括消费券，但前台说没有查到，给他们看booking 预定单，他们说是中文看不懂就没有帮我们协调。第二天我们继续找另外一个前台工作人员再次沟通，工作人员向上级经理汇报后，告知我们的确在系统里没查到，但根据我们提供的booing 预定单，还是给了我们预定时包括的消费额度。 前台工作人员不是很友好。 房间空调声音比较响。
- tammyp155 (6/5): Poor Customer Service - Holiday High Tea at Peacock Alley, Waldorf Astoria. As regular holiday high tea guests, we believe the experience is as much about service and ambiance as it is about the food. Unfortunately, this year’s holiday tea at Peacock Alley fell short of expectations. While the setting was beautiful and the food itself was good, the service was notably poor. At $125 per person, a higher standard is reasonable to expect. Throughout our visit, we had to repeatedly search for our server, often had empty water glasses, and were left without proper utensils. The automatic 20% gratuity seemed to remove any incentive to provide even a baseline level of attentive service. Given the premium price point and past experiences elsewhere, this was disappointing. Sadly, we would not return based on this visit.
- Baldehdz (10/5): First time in DC - The hotel is beautiful.....from our arrival to our departure.....we were given the best service. Our room was spacious and clean. The bar and restaurants were awesome.....Concierge was very attentive and helped with our questions.....they also provided excellent recommendations for tours and restaurants. I would recommend them.....you'll have a great time.
- Ambassador683414 (10/5): Beautiful property and amazing staff - Just completed a two night stay at this beautiful property. From arrival to departure, the stay was enhanced by the wonderful staff at WA. Upon arrival, the doorman helped us with our luggage up the stairs to the check in desk. To be fair I did try to use the street level ramp so I wouldn’t have to bother them but you have to open the door from the inside and they insisted on helping us. Got us some water and waited for us to check in where he handed us and our luggage off to another bellhop who escorted us to the room. Overall the check in process took 5 mins (super fast!) and next thing we knew we were in the room. Hallways are beautifully decorated with seats out in the hallway. I was concern about noise from Peacock Alley below but once inside the room, I never heard so much as a peep inside the room. On the first night, we wanted to get a few drinks downstairs at Peacock Alley but didn’t get a chance to make a reservation ahead of time. We kept checking to gauge the crowd below but it just stayed busy all day into night. Finally we went down and asked the front desk agent what his recommendation is to get a drink and to our surprise he said he can get us a table at Peacock Alley. He spoke to the host at Peacock Alley and within a few mins we were seated. However lesson learned, we made a reservation for the following night instead of this last minute scramble but I thought it was awesome he was able to find us seats without reservations - talk about amazing service and looking out for your in-house guests!! Crowds are mostly likely due to the Christmas decorations. Room is beautiful although small. Bathrooms are equipped with full bottles of Aesop products which smells so nice. Water flow in the shower is pretty good. Beds are comfortable although pillows are a little flat. Housekeeping is efficient and I think there’s turndown service but they never showed up during the two nights I was there but it’s ok - didn’t need it. The hotel is decorated right now for Christmas and one of the nicest hotels in the area in general. Gym is well equipped. Parking is an atrocious rate of $80/day but actually on par with DC hotel garages. A little issue with the staff at Peacock Alley on the second night. I asked for a beer they had on the menu but the waiter must have been new and didn’t even realize they had that beer on the menu. He had to ask someone about it after I pointed it out on the menu who pointed him the right direction. Then he forgot to bill us for it but I pointed it out to him about the omission so there was a bit of scramble to fix it. Didn’t want him to take the hit for it. Aside for that mix up it was a great stay.
- Sdudla sendra (1/5): The hotel cares about making money as opposed to pleasing it’s customers - They book people from outside, guest end up not having chairs in the restaurant. They truly don’t value their guests They don’t consider their guests
- O2562ZPmichaels (10/5): Best Hotel - Great hotel, location and food. Best in DC. Ask for Aleksandar Risojevic. He will take care of you with utmost professionalism. Best in the business.
- 815conniem (10/5): Exceptional Service, Gorgeous Atmosphere, and Elopement Perfection. - Our stay at this five-star property was an undeniably beautiful and memorable experience. The ambiance effortlessly blended luxurious grandeur with refined classicism, setting a sophisticated tone from the moment we arrived. The Grand Room offered a spectacular retreat; the stunning chandeliers in every room and the oversized bathtub were particular highlights. The bathroom's aesthetic and generous amenities, including delightful bath salts, transformed a simple soak into a truly spa-like luxury. Beyond the gorgeous rooms, the exceptional Concierge team elevated our entire weekend getaway to something truly special—we felt like royalty! We extend our deepest gratitude for their outstanding service, especially during our elopement. We were especially touched that the Director of Concierge personally crafted a beautiful, last-minute bouquet to accommodate our requests. Aine Cribbin was an absolute marvel, going above and beyond to ensure all our needs were met. Her thoughtfulness extended to a special in-room welcome gift, complete with celebratory champagne. Culinary delights also abounded; the room service crab cake was delicious. We highly recommend a stop at The Bazaar by José Andrés for their exquisite light tapas. Overall, this hotel delivered exceptional hospitality and exceeded every expectation. For anyone seeking impeccable five-star service and a truly gorgeous atmosphere, look no further. We are already planning our return. While the overall quality of our stay was exceptional, we noted a few details for future visitors. We missed the inclusion of a traditional swimming pool or hot tub; however, the high-end gym and serene spa offerings beautifully compensated for this omission. Additionally, we were unfortunately unable to access the famous clock tower for the 360-degree city view as it was closed to the public during our visit. These minor points, though noted, did not detract from the overwhelmingly positive, five-star quality of our experience.
- donghuns663 (10/5): Waldorf Astoria Washington DC – A True Pinnacle of Luxury - I visited this hotel twice in 2024 with my family—once in April and again in October. During my first stay, I was assigned a One King bedroom, and on my second visit, I was fortunate enough to be upgraded to a Premium Two-Queen room. On both occasions, I received an elegant welcome gift, and during my second stay, they even surprised us with a lovely bird plush. It’s the kind of thoughtful gesture that makes you feel genuinely valued as a guest. As a Korean living in the U.S., I often feel that truly warm service is rare—but this hotel proved otherwise. The staff were exceptionally kind, professional, and sincere. Their hospitality alone makes this property memorable. The exterior and interior architecture are stunning—grand, stylish, yet beautifully refined. There was even a harpist performing in the lobby; sitting there and listening to the music was incredibly calming. Inside the room, the design felt almost royal, with spacious layouts and a bathroom so large it honestly surprised me. The location is also extremely convenient—situated right in the heart of Washington, D.C., with a metro station just steps away, making travel effortless. One note for future guests: as the hotel is truly the pinnacle of luxury, dining prices are on the higher side. If you’re planning to eat on-site, it’s helpful to be aware of that in advance. Overall, this hotel is elegant, memorable, and absolutely worth revisiting. It remains one of the few places in the U.S. where I felt genuinely welcomed and cared for.
- RSangiovanni (10/5): An unforgettable stay at Waldorf Astoria Washington DC - We stayed at Waldorf Astoria Washington DC on November 27, 2025, our second time at this property, and once again the experience blew us away. As frequent travelers and loyal Hilton Honors members, we thought we knew what to expect; this stay proved that even beyond expectation. From the moment we arrived we felt truly welcomed. The rooms manager, Aleksandar Risojevic ("Alex"), played a big part in that. The first time we stayed he resolved several issues before we even arrived and made us feel like VIPs once we got there. He went out of his way to ensure everything exceeded all of our expectations. This time, after check-in and while we were out exploring the city, we got a call from him (out of the blue) simply because he recognized our name from the guest list. He remembered us. He remembered our family. He called just to say hello. Such personal attention made us feel like we came back home. He made us feel valued. He made us feel special. The same goes for the rest of the staff. Everyone from the porter, to the bell man, front desk receptionist, waiters. Simply everyone is SO friendly, welcoming, and always looking to help make your stay special. The property itself is amazing, a historic and iconic building restored to elegance and full of modern luxury. Our room was spacious, elegantly appointed, and comfortable with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The beds are incredibly comfortable and the thoughtful in-room details make it crystal clear they anticipate every need. Dining and ambiance were equally top notch. We love their restaurant The Peacock Alley, the atmosphere under the soaring atrium, the food, and the friendly service. They also do a great job of decorating the hotel for the winter Holidays too, which adds to the ambiance. The hotel’s attached Old Post Office Clock Tower (free to enter) is a beautiful bonus. Climbing to the observation deck for sweeping, 360° views of Washington DC. The hotel’s location can’t be beat. It’s close to the White House and National Mall, and has a Metro station just around the corner. It made it easy for us to take the Silver line from the/to the airport since it is so close to the hotel. Alex and the rest of the team have made us fans of this property. It has become our family’s favorite hotel.
- Gruver (6/5): They rented out the entire lobby to an outside event on a Friday night! - It is obvious that the developer put a lot of money into this hotel, which has expensive (albeit debatably chosen) finishes. The hard product here is certainly five star. However, I was absolutely astonished that the hotel rented out its entire lobby, including its bar and restaurant, to an outside event on a Friday night. The lobby bar bartenders “politely“ asked guest to close their tabs at 5:30 PM to accommodate the incoming private event which completely overwhelmed the hotel for an entire evening. I’ve never seen this happen at any hotel, let alone one that bills itself as a luxury hotel. So, if you want to pay $700 a night for a pretty room, and a very loud hotel, with a sketchy 1000 person crowd, this is your place! But that is not the place for me, or really for any discerning guest. Washington has wonderful, luxury hotels that (1) don’t have convention-like ragers occupying the entire lobby, and (2) serve their ostensible purpose much more than this establishment as a result. Do yourself a favor and check out the Ritz, the Rosewood, the Four Seasons, the Jefferson, the Hay-Adams, or even the Willard, and you will be much better served — and that’s a real shame because the location of this hotel and it’s redevelopment was actually a benefit to the City.
- Marcia (10/5): -
- MaryGB619 (10/5): A perfect hotel - From the minute we arrived at the Waldorf, I knew we were in for a really special stay. I’ve stayed in many luxury hotels, including other Waldorf properties, and none of them have come close to meeting the level of service and ambiance of this hotel. Often in historic properties, you get a sense of things being tired and a bit run down. This property sparkled from top to bottom. It maintains its historic charm and elegance while being absolutely spotless and fresh. The room, we had a Premium king bed, on the third floor. I was worried about noise, with the open atrium, but I never heard a single sound from the hotel. The bed was like an actual cloud, with a feather bed topper, and delightful duvet, I did not want to leave it. The attention to detail was so evident in the high quality of the linens, and bath products (along with everything else). Every member of staff we encountered was warm and pleasant, making the stay even that much more enjoyable. I have to say that the management of the London Waldorf should come stay here for a few days to see how it is done. I’ve never been still in bed at a hotel and looking for dates for a future stay. I loved it here, and absolutely cannot wait to come back. Quite literally perfect hotel stay, 10/10.
- Ana (10/5): -
- RayBeag3 (10/5): Amazing stay - My stay at the Waldorf Astoria Washington DC was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with genuine warmth and professionalism. A special mention goes to Alex at the front desk, who made check-in seamless and welcoming — his positive attitude and attention to detail immediately set the tone for a perfect stay. The hotel itself is stunning, with beautifully designed rooms that are spacious, comfortable, and impeccably maintained. Every detail feels luxurious. Another highlight was the bar experience. Marco, the bartender, crafted one of the best Old Fashioneds I’ve ever had. His skill, personality, and hospitality made the evening even more enjoyable. Service throughout the hotel was top-tier — attentive, friendly, and consistently polished. The location is ideal, steps away from major landmarks, and the dining options are excellent.
- moshe (10/5): -
- 321danijelc (10/5): Service out of this world - What another amazing stay at Waldorf Astoria! The moment we walked in, Aleks ran into us and remembered our names from our last stay. Just WOW! I have never met anyone with a memory like his, meets hundreds of guest on a daily basis and still remembers us. We were simply blown away. Thank you Aleks for making us feel like a VIP
- HotelDog7 (10/5): Wonderful architecture, posh hotel - I had a perfectly posh stay at the DC Waldorf. I grew up in DC when the building was known as the Old Post Office Pavilion. Back then it was faltering as a shopping mall with a ho-hum food court in the atrium, and there was talk about demolishing it. So it was a thrill to its stunning architecture saved as a luxury hotel. In coming here to post a review, I'm surprised it now ranks as only "#28 of 156 hotels in Washington DC." Because when it was a Trump hotel, it consistently ranked as "#1" ... which makes me wonder if fake reviews were pushing it to the top. But whatever the hotel's true ranking, I'm glad I stayed there.
- svetlanazD4655RV (10/5): A Team That Truly Went the Extra Mile - Our company has been hosting business events at top DC hotels for years, and the level of service provided by Monica from the Banquet Department, together with her manager Cristina (Assistant Director of Events), was truly exceptional. Monica went above and beyond on every detail, always responding to our additional requests with a warm smile, quick action, and genuine care. Cristina’s leadership and support were evident throughout, and the two of them made our event run seamlessly from start to finish. Their professionalism set a new standard of hospitality for us and made this one of our best experiences in Washington, DC.

- RENE (10/5): - Arquitetura esplêndida, quartos amplos e confortáveis! Equipe eficiente.
- outofthisworld (6/5): Has potential, good location and historical building - I used Hilton Honors points, and was given one level room upgrade. The building is beautiful, with high ceilings and many original structural effects. Greeting from doorman was subpar. I was carrying a duffel style bag and he did not hold the door. Also there are stone steps to get to the entrance; I don't know how elderly manage. Check-in was also subpar, having to wait 10 minutes for 2 hotel staff to handle man in front of me. Ice did not come until later in the evening, and was melted by morning. Tub is a fall hazard with a big lip and steep drop, with no grab bars. At coffee station was met by man mopping the floor, he did not provide a "good morning". Only cream for coffee no options. Fitness center nice with water and bananas. Location is fantastic, lovely to see the flags outside. Room spacious, showing wear. The desk chair was badly stained. Hotel has potential for greatness, with refresh in room and attention to guests.

- ryanp490 (10/5): Great experience for wife's birthday - My wife and I recently stayed at the Waldorf Astoria in Washington DC while we celebrated her birthday. Two days before check-in, I received a notice that our deluxe king room would be upgraded to a premium king room. Upon arrival, we were upgraded once more to the junior suite which was a gorgeous room to spend a weekend in. The valet, front desk staff, and room service employees were all very courteous and friendly making the stay very comfortable. We were treated with bottled waters as well as champagne while waiting for our room which was a nice touch. We did book a couple's massage at the spa and my wife is still raving about how great it was. She has been to many different resorts and had massages but she said this was the best one she has had. I also feel loosened up and think it was worth doing even thought it is pretty expensive. The treatment and environment were very relaxing and the light snacks were great. After the massage, we were treated to 30 minutes in the salt room as well as a glass of champagne to continue relaxing. Elisa and Jonny were very professional! In terms of dining, we ate at The Bazaar during our first evening and had incredible food while working through a tasting menu. Our server, Nick, was very knowledgeable and made our night one to remember by explaining the courses in detail and engaging in friendly conversation. The birthday dessert tray at the end of the meal was a great way to cap the experience. The only negative part of the trip was not being able to go up into the hotel tower. We were told the tower is part of the Smithsonian and with the government shutdown it was not operating. We were hoping to get in the tower to take a look around but we may just have to stop by in the future to see if we can go in it. Obviously this is beyond the hotel's control and our elected officials need to get it together so we can enjoy some more of the great parts DC has to offer. We would recommend this hotel and hope to be back!
- P249OYdonnad (10/5): Pure luxury and exceptional stay - Despite the gov't shutdown we had a wonderful time in Washington DC. The highlight was staying at the Waldorf Astoria. What an exceptional experience! The staff were extremely helpful - Anna on front desk and Nekyane as our personal concierge were very attentive. The food and atmosphere in Peacock Alley were 10 out of 10. Our room was pure luxury - housekeeping provided a night time turn down service. A surprise desert was left in our room to celebrate my husband's birthday which made our stay extra special. The location is excellent as well, close to the museums/mall and metro.
- lrmatthews18 (10/5): Incredible Hospitality - I will say that they go above and beyond for customer service. The rooms could use some upgrading, but everything is well kept. I would definitely recommend and will definitely be back.
- Jonathan (10/5): Great value for the price of stay. Excellent location with.walking distance to all monuments service was perfect and th - The service is impeccable. Upon arrival all the way through to checking out and even beyond the doors, the staff were constantly helping. Thank you for making our stay wonderful Nothing. Perfection
- Discover52745478247 (10/5): Unforgettable Birthday Stay at the Waldorf Astoria DC - We had a wonderful experience at the Waldorf Astoria DC. The property itself is stunning, but what truly made our stay special was the incredible service. We were celebrating a birthday, and Alex and his team went above and beyond — surprising us with a room upgrade, champagne, a beautiful sweet platter with personalized birthday wishes, and a handwritten note. Every detail felt genuine and thoughtful, turning a great stay into an unforgettable one. Thank you to the entire team for making our celebration so memorable. We can’t wait to come back!
- ryanwC1939LE (10/5): An Unforgettable Anniversary Stay at the Waldorf Astoria DC - My wife and I recently stayed at The Waldorf Astoria Washington DC for our 15th wedding anniversary, and it was an incredible experience, thanks entirely to the amazing staff who made our weekend truly special. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the stunning architecture and the historic clocktower that define the building. The interior is elegant, and the attention to detail in the atrium alone could keep you admiring for hours. Our room was spacious, quiet, and beautifully maintained. While the décor isn’t exactly my personal style, the classic design and sparkling chandelier gave it a timeless charm. The staff is what sets this property apart from any other hotel we’ve visited. The concierge team made our stay unforgettable. From a complimentary cheese plate on arrival to champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries as a turndown surprise. They checked in daily to ensure everything was perfect and offered excellent restaurant recommendations. At check-in, we were greeted by Alex, who was fantastic. He even upgraded us twice to a Junior Suite, which made our anniversary extra special. Alex, along with Danilo and Omid, also arranged a private evening tour of the Clock Tower Museum, which was closed due to the federal government shutdown. Omid personally guided us and was a wonderful host. A huge part of our experience was spent at Peacock Alley Bar, where the bartenders were some of the best we’ve ever met. Marko started our first night off perfectly, and the next evening we spent hours chatting with Danilo, who was genuinely one of the best bartenders I’ve ever encountered. His kindness and conversation made us feel like old friends, and he even helped arrange our private clocktower tour. We also connected with Chenee and had fun conversations about our daughters who were the same age. In our final two days Cecileo made our experience a lot of fun with his wonderful personality and then Juscarl with his professionalism and kindness. While there we dined at The Bazaar and Sushi Nakazawa, both located inside the hotel. The tasting menu at The Bazaar was a creative and entertaining experience, and Sushi Nakazawa was exceptional — the precision and care in each dish were remarkable. Overall, our stay at The Waldorf Astoria DC was absolutely unforgettable. The staff made our anniversary weekend truly special, and we can’t thank them enough for their warmth, professionalism, and personal touches. We’re already looking forward to returning.
- 440michaeljp (10/5): A five-star stay from beginning to end. - Upon arrival, I was greeted by the doorman by name which set the tone for a fantastic stay. “Welcome back to the Waldorf Astoria, we’ve been expecting you” is something I could certainly get used to hearing. Aleksandar not only arranged a phenomenal upgrade for me, to my favorite room, but also took the time from his day to give me a personal tour of the bi-level library loft suite, which was absolutely breathtaking. The spiral staircase and wraparound balcony feel so incredibly elegant and the two-story window lets in an incredible amount of natural light. My one bedroom suite was located at the base of the clock tower, with windows both to the lobby and the outside. It also boasts 1.75 bathrooms - a full bathroom with a massive soaking tub and a separate shower, PLUS a bathroom off the living room with its own shower. Peacock Alley was delightful as always, and I enjoyed a signature massage at the spa as well. I highly recommend anyone stay at this hotel once in their lifetime if they can. I’ve stayed ~600 nights in hotels across the USA and this is my very favorite property.
- ramsayn2025 (10/5): Amazing stay ! Thank you Aleksandar ! - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Outstanding Stay – Thanks to Aleksandar! From the moment we walked through the doors of the Waldorf Astoria, we knew we were in for something special. But what made our experience truly unforgettable was Aleksandar Risojevic. Aleksandar went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our stay was perfect. He was warm, kind, and genuinely attentive—always checking in to make sure our family was taken care of. His cheerful and positive attitude made us feel not just like guests, but like VIPs. He anticipated our needs before we even asked, handled everything with excellence, and made us feel at home in one of the finest hotels we’ve ever stayed in. Truly, he was the difference maker of our stay. The hotel itself is stunning—luxurious, elegant, and comfortable in every way. But it was Aleksandar’s level of care and professionalism that elevated our trip from great to extraordinary. We will absolutely be returning, and when we do, it will be because of both the beauty of the hotel and the exceptional service we received from Aleksandar. If you are planning a stay at the Waldorf Astoria, I hope you have the pleasure of meeting him—you won’t be disappointed!
- 678edgarh (10/5): Gulchin made the stay ! - From the moment I walked into the hotel, the Gulchin made me feel incredibly welcome. She was friendly, efficient, and genuinely attentive to every detail of my stay. Check-in was smooth and quick, and they kindly offered local recommendations that turned out to be fantastic. What really stood out was her professionalism and warmth—always greeting guests with a smile and ready to assist with any questions. Whether it was helping with directions, arranging transportation, or simply remembering my name, she went above and beyond.
- hoff1212 (10/5): Premium Experience - Best bar in DC . Cecillio will make you a special drink to your taste. A true artist. Beautiful space and excellent food. What a treat for a special night out.
- 297philipc (2/5): Ridiculous Drink Prices! Not well made. - $35 for a martini is simply outlandish, The bar defies every aspect of value even for those who don't care. I would think Waldorf might want to balance luxury with appeal to only billionaires. I will not be returning as I cant justify the absurdity.
- Culture35583136688 (10/5): Dream come true experience - After my birthday trip back in May i was back in DC and decided to stay in Waldorf Astoria again due to my amazing past experience which i thought it couldnt get better and boy i was wrong. As soon as we arrived, the doorman Ahmed recognized us and welcomed us back. Second person who remembered us was Aleks who greeted us like we were family. Big shoutout to Marco at the bar for making the best cocktails. Hopefully we will be back for Christmas.
- 765shannane (10/5): Entering the Waldorf Astoria DC: Wow! - My husband and I stayed here for of one of staycations this year. You definitely get the wow factor as you walk into the lobby. The harpist is just lovely! The bar is great, but pricey. Jose Andres' restaurant, The Bazaar is in the hotel and is a must-do. You can order tapas a la carte or order a tasting/pre fixe menu. The carpets could use updating or a deep clean but it wasn't enough to take away from a great stay! Will return.
- lazarp775 (10/5): Another great experience - As always this was an amazing stay and mainly because of Aleks who remembered me from my last stay which surprised me greatly. He found me a very nice room with a lot of space for me to work. Breakfast was very good as well as cocktails in Peacock alley. I recommend Waldorf Astoria to anyone who is looking for amazing service with people who really care about their guests.

- P2118ELrogerc (10/5): Outstanding Service and Luxury in the Heart of DC - I’ve stayed at the Waldorf Astoria DC for the past three years, and it’s been fantastic every single time. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are spacious, well-designed, and feel truly luxurious. It’s the kind of place where you can actually relax after a busy day in the city. What really makes the experience special, though, is the staff. Everyone is attentive and professional, and they go out of their way to make you feel welcome. A special shoutout to Anteneh, the bellhop, who has remembered me every year since my first stay in 2022. He greets me like an old friend and always goes above and beyond. One time, when my Uber Eats driver wouldn’t come to the entrance, Anteneh ran out in the rain to get my order — that kind of service is rare. Overall, the Waldorf Astoria DC is not just a luxury hotel, it’s a place that feels personal and memorable. Highly recommend.
- W3651TWnatek (2/5): Poor Customer Service From Management - My family and I stayed at the Waldorf in early July. I am a loyal Hilton guest, and I used over 400k points for the stay. I travel often for work and these points are hard earned. During the visit one of the valet workers gave the keys to our rental car to another guest who then left town with our keys. They did not receive the keys back for 6 days after we checked out, at which time the Waldorf was able to return my rental car. They covered the difference in cost for the extended rental (which they should) and covered $100 worth of room service. It took them over 2 weeks to reimburse me for the added expense of extending the reservation. I reached out to the hotel 2 different times after the check was received to ask for some of my hard-earned points back due to the hassle of having to deal with this issue both during and after our trip. They have yet to respond. I had to reach out daily to ask if the keys had been received because the hotel would not take the initiative to reach out to me. I thought it was only fair that they return some of my points for the time and frustration this caused but they continue to ignore a loyal guest. This makes you realize that loyalty only goes one way.
- beerwriter (10/5): You DO Get What You Pay For - Expensive but arguably worth it. Exceptional, attentive and personalized service. Luxurious lodgings, fine dining options, and extremely convenient location in the center of DC. One of the best hotel stays of my life.
- Y5170DFanai (10/5): Thank you Aleksander, for everything. - It was a very wonderful stay at Waldorf Astoria DC. From my arrival until the departure, everything was amazing. Special shout out must go to Aleksander who did not remember just my name, but he also remembered everything about me, which made an enormous impact on me. I am already making plans to come back in December this year, and i can not wait to come back.
- sarahhZ8068YJ (10/5): Excellent Service - Excellent stay with incredible service. The Door Person, Danish, made us feel especially well-cared for. Service was friendly, enthusiastic, and top-tier with keen attention to detail.
- Marzari (10/5): Favoloso e affascinante - Tutto
- Lorraine (10/5): - From the moment we arrived at the Waldorf in DC, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The property is absolutely stunning, every detail reflects luxury and elegance. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, offering attentive service without ever being intrusive. Our room was spacious, beautifully designed, and immaculately clean, with thoughtful touches that made our stay feel extra special. The location is perfect, allowing easy access to some of the best sights and dining in the city. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. The Waldorf sets the standard for world-class hospitality, and I can’t wait to return.
- Odyssey19520278162 (10/5): Best hotel we have been to - Easily the best hotel experience we have ever had. Everything was just one step ahead details wise. We loved every minute of our stay. Danish, the doorman was the most helpful man ever. Provided waters when we left the building for our walks, helped with any and all questions, had our car ready and waiting for all of our outings. Just made the trip so special. The hotel bar was incredible. The cocktails were handcrafted and the atmosphere was the coolest thing. We will most definitely be back and look forward to when we do.
- MUCRhino (10/5): Fantastic Stay at a truly grand hotel - We spent two nights in the hotel during our recent family trip. I was truly impressed with the building inside and out. The atmosphere is truly special. Everyone was super friendly from Danish at the door, Alex at check-in or Albert the F&B Manager. Our Hilton Diamond status was fully honored and our two rooms were upgraded so that we had two really large and beautiful rooms with connecting doors. The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring the sites of the city.
- STEVEN (10/5): - Gorgeous
- Nicholas (6/5): Good location, overpriced room service. - Location was very good. All food and drink coming from room service has a distinctive odour you get when washing all plates and cutlery together. This odour comes from eggs. Its very distinctive and unpleasant. Plates and cutlery that have been exposed to eggs, should be washed separately than all other plates and cutlery.
- Seyfulla (10/5): - Very very good everything is great here
- William (10/5): - Fun place to stay in the bazaar is a great place to eat. It’s close to everything in Washington so it’s a great place to go if you wanna walk to the things.
- Glenn (10/5): -
- Antonina (10/5): - Everything was excellent. Concierge very helpful and on point.
- Kyle (10/5): - Very opulent Too much service
- Edward (10/5): - nice property, comfortable lounge area, clean and fresh.
- Channing1980 (10/5): Unforgettable Hotel - What an amazing hotel by far the best hotel stay I have ever had visiting the US. Location of the hotel is ideal very short walks to the White House and Lincoln Statue, Washington Monument, majority of the war memorials. Very safe to walk around at night and only across the road from the metro makes it easy to travel further afield. On arrival to the hotel it was very busy as there was a black tie event on meaning the door staff had a lot of customers to help however when out taxi turned up someone come straight over to help with our bags and take us to the reception area. Every time we would leave the hotel for the day of activities the door staff would always check if we needed cold water for the walk as it is was in the high 90s and always had great advice on routes to take and places to visit. Front Desk at this hotel are amazing from checking in to having any questions about local restaurants or attractions always happy to help, big shout out to Ahmed who was always on the front desk when we needed assistance and was super helpful. We ate at the peacock restaurant most days to use the credit we had with the room and nothing local could compete with quality and taste of the food. Nobody should leave without trying the red velvet cake. Pierre at the peacock was very attentive and a great guy to have a chat with. Room service was also a 10 out of 10. The rooms are spacious and very clean with this highest ceilings I have ever come across at a hotel. The bath we had was huge along with an oversized shower cubicle with super water pressure. Housekeeping never failed to stock the coffee/Tea and even over stocked the items I was using to make sure I didn't run out. I have travelled around the US a lot over the past 28 years and I can say without a doubt this hotel has been my favourite and when we return it will be the top of my list to return to this Waldorf Astoria.
- O8442XSjasonn (10/5): Unforgettable Anniversary Stay – 10/10 Service - If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Our stay at the Waldorf Astoria Washington DC was absolutely phenomenal. From the moment we arrived, we felt taken care of at the highest level. A special shoutout to Amber from the concierge team and Roman at the front desk—they went above and beyond to make our anniversary unforgettable. Their attention to detail, warmth, and professionalism truly set this property apart. The hotel itself is stunning, but it’s the incredible staff that makes this place exceptional. Every interaction we had was thoughtful and sincere. 10 out of 10 service from beginning to end. We’re already missing our stay and will absolutely be back. We won’t stay anywhere else in DC. This is the place. Period.
- jaimebR7207JH (10/5): Incredible Service - The Waldorf DC is amazing and my family and I highly recommend. The concierge desk is amazing and the service is top notch! I would like to specifically recognize Edward from the concierge… he made our trip extra special and spent so much time ensuring every detail was perfect for us and every question I had was answered. He went over and beyond, providing us guidance not only for DC but also NYC, Philly and more. He’s an incredible asset to Hilton and I hope he’s recognized for all that he does! We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back. Beautiful hotel, beautiful rooms, beautiful service. We can’t say enough good things about this hotel and staff!
- Z6938KWlb (10/5): Amazing hotel - This hotel is centrally located, close to the Smithsonian’s, an absolutely beautiful We had a king suite with two bathrooms and a small business sitting area. The amenities were wonderful and I would highly recommend this for a special occasion or a splurge.
