Its ALWAYS a good stay at the InterContinental in Washington, DC!! From the very moment u arrive, you are greeted w/a welcome and smile. My girlfriend and i did a staycation here. Being able to enjoy the spectacular wharf views from sunrise to sunset is EVERYTHING!!! Erinn checked us in and was extremely helpful making sure the room we had choose was exactly how we wanted it to be. He truly went above & beyond to make sure we were happy!! And that we were😊!!! The beds are top notch, rooms are extremely clean and very nice service. We even were surprised with bed turn down service and a piece of chocolate. We had a lovely visit and we look forward to seeing Erinn again as well as the rest of the staff. This will forever be ONE of our places to stay when getting away from home. Five stars!!!!

We did not stay at the hotel but used the spa. Phides understood the assignment. Great massage with expert knowledge of how muscles work. Relaxing but technical. The lounge area is a plus. You can relax before and after, with great views of the water, tea and snacks.

Living at the Wharf, we definitely have our choice of top restaurants. Willowsong is always our go to. Chef Jeff, Stephen. Jeremiah and the entire team are top notch and make you feel like it’s your first visit every time you walk through the door.

Fabulous dinner at Willowsong! Chef Jeff never disappoints and the staff tending bar and taking care of dinner guests are first class! Nice relaxed atmosphere. We’ll be back!

Wow, this was our first stop in America and it’s set the bar incredibly high. We checked in late and took a stroll down to the tiki bar (would highly recommend for locally produced rum and a great vibe), the next day we headed out into the city (you can uber or walk) and it was spectacular. The staff are all lovely and the hotel is wonderfully decorated and modern. Breakfast was delicious (highly recommend sitting outside by the river). Then we spent the afternoon up at the rooftop bar and pool (please refer to the images) with sweeping views across downtown Washington and the river it’s truly picturesque, not to mention all the landmarks you can see while lounging by the pool. The whole afternoon was made even better by the wonderful bar tender Moises, supplying us with great chat, delicious drinks (highly recommend his Moscow mule) and local knowledge. A truly fantastic setup!
