The property was beautiful but the rooms were a bit behind the times. There was a TV but not a smart TV. The bathroom shower produced luke warm water. Behind the bedside tables were very dusty when I plugged in my power cords. Again the the property and amenities were great but for the price I excepted the rooms to be updated.

I recently stayed at the Willard InterContinental Washington, an IHG Hotel, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The historical charm of the hotel, combined with its modern luxury, made for a perfect stay in the heart of Washington, D.C. The service was outstanding, and I must give special recognition to Gomes, who went above and beyond to ensure my stay was exceptional. From the moment I arrived, Gomes was incredibly attentive, welcoming, and professional. His knowledge of the hotel’s history and his genuine care for guests made a lasting impression. He provided excellent recommendations for dining and local attractions and always greeted me with a smile, making me feel like a valued guest. The hotel’s location is unbeatable, with major landmarks like the White House, National Mall, Holocaust Memorial Museum, and The National Museum of African American History & Culture were within walking distance. The ambiance of the lobby, with its stunning architecture and elegant décor, sets the tone for the luxurious experience that awaits. The Peacock Alley is a fantastic spot for enjoying a relaxing afternoon tea, and the Round Robin Bar offers a historic setting to unwind with a cocktail. Overall, my stay at the Willard InterContinental was nothing short of spectacular. The combination of its rich history, prime location. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and memorable stay in Washington, D.C.

Overall0c our stay was pretty good. However, we had to ask for housekeeping three times until they came. Also, the housekeeper left the bottle of cleaner in the bathroom and didn’t remove used soap from the bathroom from the previous occupant. When we arrived, they started helping people around us and people behind us because they mistook my Chevy suburban for a limo. I had to get out of the vehicle to get someone to help us. On the plus side, the hotel is beautiful, pretty clean, and the location is great. Most of the staff is quite friendly.
