Monica Sanchez worked on our event and was a fantastic server. She was great with acknowledging, and flawlessly accommodating, dietary restrictions. Ms. Sanchez was very pleasant, personable, and kind and I am glad I got to meet her.

Location is amazing, right in the heart of DC. Staff is very friendly, Omid was so helpful and took time to personally serve us. Alex was great at check in and helping us see some special sights. Facilities are beautiful, clock tower is a great spot to get a good view of DC.

From check-in to check-out, everything about my stay was outstanding. The rooms were spotless, spacious, and comfortable, with all the amenities I needed. The location is ideal—close to everything, yet peaceful and relaxing. What truly made the experience exceptional was the service. Every staff member was kind and professional, and a special shoutout to Alex, the manager, whose dedication and attention to detail clearly elevate the entire guest experience. This hotel truly goes above and beyond. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

We had an amazing time at Waldorf Astoria, but the Concierge was a highlight. Special mention to Edward, the one that made all the difference even before we arrive, from the recommendations, reservations, assistance and problem solving. Nakane and Amber were also above expectations. And our expectations were very high. Thank you very much!
