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.

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!

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!

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.
