Don’t waste your time!
The bathroom was very small. The shower was awful to work. The bedroom was tiny!!!!! They did not state it was less than queen bed but rather a full sized bed. Definitely not for a small family . Our two little girls didn’t even fit! Awful hidden fees. They charged us for amenities… that basically included a gym which we never used!!!! Our room wasn’t even clean! Found dirty socks in room!

This is my second time at the Riggs. When I first booked for one night price was high and I was disappointed. I checked before my trip and price was more reasonable & I decided to go with something that I liked . Great upgrade and amenities. The bar restaurant a plus .

Fab location, superb friendliness and extremely well trained and accommodating staff, and a lively and hip place near a plethora of good restaurants (including at least four or five by José Andre). The City Center near by has most of the great European designers. A+

Liked: Staff & service
I had very high expectations for this hotel but was unfortunately pretty disappointed. The staff were wondering and so many of them made a special effort to engage with our young son. With that being said, the property itself cannot be a 5-star stay. First, there was a long black hair in our shower that says everything I need to know about the cleanliness of the facility. And that aside, the towels are scratchy, the beds have no support, the rooms are cute but leave a lot left to be desired, and overall the hype did not live up to the reality of this experience. I’m very surprised about the hotel rating. A few more positive notes would be that the rooms seemed very sound proof (unlike many others we’ve experienced in DC), the location cannot be beat, and our check in and checkout were seamless. We also had a good breakfast on our first morning.
