And they also had a cherry blossom tree w/ a bench inside for you to take pictures. They also have a restaurant that does Tea Service at 1pm and 3pm which I recommend my ladies to check out if you haven't already. In regard to parking, they have a parking garage in the basement but It is VALET ONLY. I asked the receptionist and she Indicated that room prices vary depending on the season but on average they are about $700 - $800 per night.

My husband and I were chasing a Home Alone 2 fantasy. Lost in New York energy, but in DC. Christmas…read morerobes. Snacks packed. Jenny Lind Suite booked. That jetted tub was supposed to earn its keep. The room: genuinely beautiful. The technology: aggressively dated. The vibe: a 90s time capsule, complete with missing doorknobs. There was effort here, but it felt like the hotel was holding its breath, afraid any real investment might trigger the next recession. What they got right: The bellhops were fantastic. Warm, personable, fun. Truly the highlight. Most staff we interacted with were polite and willing to help, which made the gaps elsewhere even more confusing. What they got wrong (beyond the dated room and tech): For a hotel that loudly advertises luxury service, the customer experience fell flat. Outside of the arrival bowl of fruit, nothing felt elevated. Night two, we ordered pizza and planned a cozy Home Alone movie night. The technology made streaming impossible. Fine, cable it is. We called the concierge and asked for two plates. Just two. The answer was a flat no. We were told to walk down to the lobby restaurant and see if they might have plates "to spare." I'm sorry, what? The next morning, room service arrived... with someone else's order. It was corrected, but for a luxury hotel, that kind of miss is surprising. Housekeeping came through, but only halfway. The coffee and minibar were never restocked. In a suite. At a luxury hotel. This is table stakes. At 9:30 PM we stopped by the lobby circle bar. It was immediately clear the bartenders did not want to be there. I get it, service work is hard. Still, opening our interaction by warning us about last call at 11 set a strange tone. By 10:00, one bartender disappeared for 45 minutes. No refills. No check-in. No bill. Breaks are important. Coverage is also important, especially when you're selling a premium experience. Beyond the bellhops, much of the staff felt irritated to be present. Front desk to concierge, the energy was less "historic luxury hotel" and more "counting down the minutes." The hotel was also clearly prioritizing weekend tea and brunch revenue, to the point that the historic lobby was clogged with extra tables and largely unusable for actual hotel guests. Bottom line: this was not a luxury experience, and I would not recommend it. I'm only posting this publicly because I reached out directly to hotel management and never received a response. At that point, a review feels necessary.

A nice and clean hotel in a great location. This was a quick and pleasant stay!…read more Rooms are spacious and the bed was comfortable. Everything seems like it's been updated fairly recently which is nice. The lobby is bright and inviting and they have a cute bar area with lots of seating and a fireplace. Our stay came with drink tickets, so it was nice to sit at the bar and relax with a drink. This is in the heart of downtown so you can easily walk to all of the sights. The hotel offers valet parking, but for a much cheaper option you can book a nearby parking garage. Overall this is a solid option if you need somewhere to stay in downtown DC that won't break the bank, but is also nice and comfortable.

Upon welcome we received free Trolley tickets for one day and some food credits, probably based on our Bonvoy Status (we travel all the time). The price for a room I guess because of the multiple conventions in the place was excessive. I think for a room, not a suite, it would have ben $750 per night during the week. I thought that was a lot so we used points, and the 1st night they had not held our King Room for us, and despite being our anniversary, we had to sleep in a double room and move the next day. Unfortunately, the double room was quiet, and the King Room had an adjoining door and we heard every little thing from the room next door. I would put this down one point, but the service, staffing and helpful Concierge made this place really nice for us.

I'm not sure it's worth the price without the location, the hotel staff weren't particularly friendly or accommodating, and although the rooms were nice, certainly not luxury or as well kept as other JW MARRIOTT locations I've been to. As an Ambassador with Marriott, I was pretty dismayed that I was misled about my room type and sort of dismissed when I could have been in a more front facing room. Not sure I would stay here again unless I wanted a specific view of the George Washington monument.

We will definitely be back and will make a point to ask for him next time.

Karim at the front door started off the experience, all smiles and never let me open my own door. The hotel itself is immaculate, very beautifully decorated and very well located. The staff at Estuary absolutely stole the show though, we must say. We are a family of 4 and were celebrating my daughters 8th birthday trip. From the second we met Asia and Shawnae at the host stand we were made to feel like family! Their warmth, love for the children and willingness to do anything to make their stay enjoyable was so genuine and greatly appreciated! Asia in particular went above in beyond any way she possibly could. She spent time with us, offered suggestions, and left us feeling like we have family here at the Conrad. Cory and Will made great drinks, always smiled, always remembered us and for that we are thankful. At breakfast we had the team of Kevin and Sandra and they also were amazing. Very attentive, did anything they could to make the kids smile, the service was always on point. Crystal at the front desk came up to the room and decorated for our daughters birthday, brought her a gift bag and absolutely made her feel special on her special day! In totality, we came with no expectations and left with every one of them being exceeded! This Conrad is amazing, the best one we've stayed at and honestly a hotel is only as good as the people that make it what it is. The staff here is remarkable, they deserve the regnition and offer their genuine touch openly and willingly any time they can.

Traveling can be exhausting, and during our stay, my son Colin often went down to the bar and restaurant on his own in the evenings and mornings. What stood out to me wasn't just the quality of the food or service--it was how the staff treated him. Every single time, he was met with kindness, respect, and genuine warmth. He ordered his meals, sat comfortably, enjoyed his time, and never once felt awkward or out of place. The staff made sure he had what he needed, checked in on him naturally, and created an environment where he felt completely at ease. As a parent, that level of care is something you never forget. For me, the experience was just as special. Corey, the bartender, was exceptional. Each evening, he made sure I had exactly what I wanted, when I wanted it, and engaged in thoughtful, easy conversation that made the space feel welcoming and safe. It wasn't just service--it was connection, and it made a long, tiring trip feel restorative. This hotel doesn't just deliver luxury--it delivers humanity. The staff understands how to read people, how to make guests feel comfortable, and how to create an atmosphere where everyone feels like they belong. I've stayed in many beautiful hotels, but this experience stands apart because of how we were treated as people. Thank you to the entire team--and especially Corey--for making this such a memorable stay. We will absolutely be back.

Rooms facing the WH are pretty pricey $850 minimum. The building is luxe in general. Off the Record Bar has great decor but the staff are unfriendly and rude. Honestly feels like a tourist trap these days. The bellMan broke my expensive rolling bag and didn't tell anyone. Put the broken pieces of the handle inside the bag and left me to discover it when I was leaving the hotel. I told the front desk and they said they'd have to look at the video camera footage to see what happened. I had a business meeting and was going to walk with my roller bag but had to carry it by hand as IT WAS BROKEN by their staff. I guess they didn't believe me that their guy broke it ergo the video replay. Later offered me $100 credit but the bag has to be replaced for $500. Said they couldn't help me with the whole amount. When the bellman put our bags in our room the first day of our stay my gf noticed a black evening bag with our bags....it wasn't ours; the bag had a passport, money, etc in it.. We called the front desk to tell them and they were totally unimpressed and acted like it was no big deal...said oh, ok we will send someone up for it. The overall attitude of management seems to be they can't be bothered with "the small stuff" I won't be staying there or going to the bar again. Not worth the $$$$

Great location! Right at Lafayette Square near the White House. We had a good visit here…read more The staff were very helpful and friendly. Room and bathroom was a decent size (except for shower). Line for the restaurant is odd( maybe offer a time window for guests so a huge line doesn't form at once). Pretty clean, given it's an older, historical building.

Hallway carpeting could use an update. Rooms could use better coffee maker and supplies. Privacy shades on most of windows but not the one by the bathroom. We would visit again, especially if we wanted to do a White House tour or visit the Washington Monument.

Had a corner suite (room 411) so it was a bit more spacious but the view was unusual -- my view was directly of a conference room for a company next door. Hilarious to open up the curtains to see 15 people convening in the conference room. Front desk staff were nice. Bought a couple of Voss waters from their mini mart next to the front desk @ $12 plus tax each.
