Great location, beautiful hotel!
Pros:

I loved the location of this hotel, it was easy to get to, and central to so many things we didn’t need our car again. The outdoor pool was beautiful, and the rooms being on upper levels meant that they were quieter.

Cons:

I would have loved breakfast to be included in the stay.

Not worth the 600 for 2 nights.
Pros:

The location was good.

Cons:

The room was not worth the money. The room drawers was broke . Not being told about the parking situation. I had a handicap truck it had little room to get into the parking garage. Having to valet the handicap vehicle is a NO. Then it was not on the website about this. Not having alot of food options.

Sehr gut für ein paar Tage Washington!
Pros:

Wir haben den Aufenthalt im Hilton sehr genossen, das Zimmer war schön groß und sauber, Wifi war super, das Personal war freundlich und es war nur ein kurzer Spaziergang zum Wharf, auch zum Smithsonian Air and Space Museum war es nur ein kurzer Weg, für uns hat es sehr gut gepasst!

Cons:

Wir hatten kleine Schwierigkeiten das Hotel zu finden (Washingtoner Verkehr und Google Maps harmonieren nicht sehr gut), dann hatten wir aber unkompliziertes Valet Parking.

Great Stay
Pros:

The staff was amazing. We left some items behind in the room and they were kind enough to retrieve them for us after we checked out. We were able to check in early and everyone at the front desk had a great attitude.

Cons:

It was tricky to find the entrance to the hotel. GPS had us driving around. We needed to set it up for the Spy Museum! Wish we knew this ahead of time.
