Staff were friendly, efficient, and helpful from beginning to end of our visit. Room was very nice, with tasteful decor, good climate control, very clean. Our dinner in the Lafayette Restaurant was certainly one of the best meals we have eaten in Washington. Valet parking was convenient and quick. Location is excellent for sightseeing. Information and photographs about the hotel's history were fascinating.

Wonderful, beautiful accommodations; exemplary old-word service; perfect location.Across the street from the White House. Elegant and warm - look forward to being spoiled.

Old world glamour meets, excellent service, with the best location possible in D.C. Everything, from the valet parking to the waiters in the restaurant were so helpful and with such a positive service attitude. They gave the feeling that nothing was beyond their ability in order to make you happy! We arrived after a long drive and were wet following a surprising rain shower that caught us with open roof panels (Jeep..) and the hotel staff were so nice and also arranged to clean our soaking car. The check in was excellent and we received a room with a White House view which was amazing! Food both in the restaurant and the bar was excellent and the staff again was supportive with our dietary requirements, as if it was no effort. Lovely! The staff also "rescued" us when there were some demonstrations outside the hotel (it is in front of the White House after all..) and the access to the hotel was blocked and we to leave the hotel in one of the streets nearby and walk back to the hotel - The hotel staff tried at first to help us through the police blockade, but when this was not possible they sent someone to bring back our car! This is exemplary service!!

Incredible stay at Hay Adams over July 4th weekend. The level of service exceeded expectations. Hotel is elegant with well appointed rooms and incredible views. Dining was fantastic. Fabulous bar. And the location is perfect! The entire staff is absolutely wonderful. From start to finish this was a first class experience. Cannot wait to return

Traditional breakfast meeting at the hotel. Very nice menu selection with some traditional and delicious specialties. Excellent service and atmosphere! Not a hotel breakfast where to arrive with shorts:). Location is great by the white house. If nothing else, definitely a tick in box place to visit.
