  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It turned out to be a great decision. Wonderful location !Restaurants all along the River. The staff was very helpful. My husband was having health issues and they were very attentive.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Modern and clean property. Excellent location on the Wharf. They have a rooftop pool, but it is very small.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    We enjoyed our entire experience at the International Washington hotel. The staff, the venue were all in great shape. Food at the hotel was ok

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    I did not appreciate not receiving points because we booked through Expedia

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Great staff! Property clean and maintained (issues resolved quickly after told). NO breakfast included. Menu full and high priced meals. You can ask for a mini fridge for room.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The staff was incredible. Especially, Isabelle who made our Anniversary stay memorable. The accommodations were excellent.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Wharf area was easily accessible from the hotel. Lots of restaurants nearby.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    I was so disappointed that the fridge was full and if I wanted an empty one ,I had to call to get a new one which ment it would not be cold for some time. Other than that what a great hotel and staff.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Property was great. The Warf location is a great area when visiting DC

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Beautiful hotel in a great location But overpriced. From parking, Amenity fees, and room services it can be more expensive than expected.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Expensive but very nice hotel right on the Wharf. Staff were extremely nice and welcoming. Room was clean and large. We stayed for a week. Daily housekeeping was slow and often forgot to restock coffee. However when we mentioned this at checkout they credited the daily "amenity fee" which saved us a couple hundred dollars. Hotel restaurant looked nice but was too expensive for our tastes. However there are tons of dining options on the Wharf.

    Aiden, the bell hop was the absolute star of the show. All staff were great, but Aiden really stood out. Super friendly and professional at all times. Remembered me by name after just the first encounter and always greeted me by name every time he saw me. Really made me feel at home and welcome. I have only stayed at the Intercontinental in San Salvador, El Salvador before and wondered if my experience here would be just as good. Did NOT disappoint. It is a great brand to stay with. They truly are top notch in their level of service!

    Lobby Coffee/tea service needs to be available at times posted. I was there at 7 am and had to wait until 7:30 for coffee and had meetings on the Hill at 8 am.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Valet backed my SUV into a pillar in the parking garage. Tried to buff it out, unplugged my dash cam and do everything but be honest and tell me about it. Too late, it recorded everything I needed to know. Saw a lot of really nice expensive vehicles being left in their care, be forewarned! Their insurance better handle this well. $75 for valet service is crazy enough... my vehicle should not have been damaged!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Our stay was amazing! The staff was super friendly and helpful, and our room was PERFECT! The robes were a perfect touch after a long day, and we felt completely relaxed for a good night’s sleep.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Beautiful hotel in a great location. Considering how busy The Wharf area is, the room was pretty quiet. Great view from the rooftop pool. I also loved they had a hoist at the pool which would allow wheelchair users to still access it. Nothing, aside from the price. Very expensive.

    Close to Anthem

    Zero complaints. Would recommend
