Nice Option Downtown
Pros:

Very nice hotel. If I could do 4.5 I would. Room was good size, clean, and well appointed. Staff was attentive and friendly. Only complaint was the tiny gym. For a hotel at this price point and overall quality, they need to find more space for a gym. There were only 3 of us in it and we were bumping into each other.

Three and a Half stars at best, not even close to five stars, St Regis is slipping!
Pros:

This hotel has been on a steady decline for years, and now it really shows. Rooms (over $700 per night) have been renovated very cheaply, and the decor does not match the overall theme of the lobby, very odd. Marriott has really run their hotels into the ground, especially St Regis and Ritz Carlton Hotels which were at one time, top notch luxury and service, well....not anymore....sad to see the decline of this once great hotel.

Exceptionally disappointing, even more so at their ridiculous pricing
Pros:

Probably once the most appalling hotel experiences in years. I could hear everybody speaking and walking in the hallway, doors slamming shut all night from my $1150 a night room. The wall and my bed shook when the people in the room next door shut their doors and I was woken at 0700 by excessive moaning from the woman in the room next to me. The Amex breakfast included for 2 was not enough to cover breakfast for one, they charged $150 printing fee for 2 PPTs to be printed which is great example of the excessive pricing at this hotel. My bathroom was so small that I didn’t even have a spot for my toiletries bag, the show head was tiny and the toilet so low I could hardly get up. The hotel has no amenities (no gym, no spa, no pool). There was no tea making in my room and the paper cups (no real cups) for the coffee machine were too big to even fit…

I will never return to this St Regis, and likely drop the St Regis brand from my hotel selection. At these prices everything should be perfect.

I am simply still stunned from the whole experience.

The housekeeping staff who left a matter unaddressed.

Don’t stay here, disgusting
Pros:

It If I could give it a zero I would. Absolutely disgusting room. I’ve included photos of the area behind the toilet that I don’t think has been cleaned in years, coupled with the huge chunk out of the vanity that has now become blackened. Topped off with the light from the closet that wouldn’t turn off no matter how firmly it was closed so it was really fun to look at all night! Also, upon first entering our room, there were coins all over the floor so it obviously hadn’t been vacuumed. Finally, we were extremely tired one night and didn’t feel like going out for dinner after a long day of sightseeing so my child got a kids cheese burger with fries, ordered well done. Was brought almost raw with French fries so salty, they were inedible. How does one mess that up? I emailed to let them know what was happening and their solution was to give us a late checkout. Um our flight leaves early in the morning and why would I want to stay longer at such a gross hotel.

They also put the cost of our room on not one but TWO cards (I had submitted a different one to use upon checkin). I have never in my life had so many issues at one hotel. Still hasn’t been fixed.

There are so many great places to stay in DC, look elsewhere

4 star at best, poor concierge, don’t waste your money!
Pros:

Hard pass. Rooms are small and outdated. Bathroom is incredibly tight. You can reach the shower and sink at the same time. Only one person can fit. Beds are hard and firm. Feather pillows easily fell flat and did not hold its shape. Robes are itchy and need to be replaced.

Poor service. For example, I reached out to concierge to plan something special for my daughter’s birthday before hand, I requested a pastry with happy birthday written on the plate. We checked it and it was NOT in the room. Pure disappointment as I wanted to surprise my daughter. No handwritten card. I was beyond frustrated as that was the purpose of this trip- to celebrate her. Also, what a waste of time reaching out prior to the trip to plan the ammenity. Furthermore, when I complained and ask they bring it after dinner, they did but the pastries were so stale!!! My daughter had one bite and threw the rest away. Terrible terrible.

This is definitely not the same St Regis service you would expect from this brand, except for the standard complimentary tea/coffee service and pressing. Maybe I’ve been spoiled by the last st Regis we have stayed in. I did not have a specific room butler- it seemed as if whoever is available will tend to your request. This hotel is far from comparable to the previous stays in locations such as New York or Hong Kong.

No upgrade for Platinum members. You do get free continental breakfast, which was nice.

In summary- expect a 4 star room at best and poor service. Set your expectations low- if you come in expecting Marriott v st Regis, you will be fine.

Recommendation- go to the Waldorf instead!! High ceilings, large room, and better experience! That is a 5 star stay.

Birthday weekend visit
Pros:

Had a great trip to DC this weekend! First time staying at the St. Regis and we were well taken care of.
Our room wasn’t quite ready on arrival so we were treated to a drink at the bar. Our toddler was spoiled with popcorn and a stuffy so she couldn’t care less!
Our room was clean and spacious. We were treated with cake on arrival in celebration of my birthday.
The following day we interrupted our housekeeper, Yolanda who could not be more friendly! She brought our daughter a toddler sized robe that she loved. Later that evening after dinner we returned to find a step-stool and toddler sized slipper that were just darling! It’s the little touches like this that make you feel at home. Also Deric spoiled us with some wine a chocolates to enjoy!
We were overall impressed with our stay and plan to return again! Thank you for the hospitality!

Location, location, location.
Pros:

We stayed here for a family Event and hoped to see some sights during our downtime. The location truly couldn’t be more convenient—you don’t need a car. You can walk a few steps to the White House, museums, and just about everything else.

I was also very impressed with the service even before we arrived. When I booked the room, Marriott’s website was giving me trouble with applying a certificate. Elizabeth Brogan at the hotel personally stepped in and sent a letter to Bonvoy CR to get the issue resolved. That is above and beyond service; many hotels would simply claim their hands are tied.

I would also like to recognize Derik at check-in and the manager, Katrina. There was some confusion with a room change that caused us difficulty, and Derik and his colleague, Ahmed, advocated on our behalf. Katrina then stepped in and was extremely accommodating and helpful. She essentially said, “What can I do to make everything right?”—and then she did exactly that. Maybe this should be expected from a manager at a luxury hotel looking after an elite-status guest, but still appreciated.

I didn’t have time to use many of the hotel’s amenities, but the lobby is very nice, and the elite breakfast benefit was excellent. It’s not a buffet—you order from the menu—and it was comparable to the Hay-Adams just a few doors down.

Disappointed and let down
Pros:

The position and design downstairs

Cons:

We booked a suite for close to 2000 USD a night. The room stank of cigarettes. It was small and minimally decorated. There was no bath, the towels were small, the products were horrible and cheap. There was no kettle in the room. In short everything was cheap looking and disappointing about the room. Our rate included breakfast but we could only choose from a small list of options and when we asked for some avocado to add to our eggs we had to pay extra. In short we will never stay at this hotel again. In the rooms there is nothing 5 star at all.

Coming Home!
Pros:

The St. Regis Washington, DC, a crown jewel of the brand, is a luxury haven that pairs extraordinary service with an indelible sense of place. From its location to its recently renovated nearly century-old structure, the hotel offers a welcoming and intimate atmosphere.

The staff at every level is welcoming, attentive, and anticipates guests’ needs and preferences, making it feel like coming home. The hotel’s leadership invests in cultivating hospitality leaders at the top of the industry, which is evident in the familiar faces you’ll encounter year over year. This retention of talent speaks to the culture of the organization, and The St. Regis Washington, DC, is undoubtedly doing something right!

The lobby is inviting and intimate, and one of the hottest bars in town. The Mediterranean influence of the restaurant consistently delivers great food and friendly service.

The refined renovations have transformed the hotel into a destination within a destination. Major kudos to their front office lead, Katelyn, for their continuous refinements!

This place offers a perfect blend of socializing, relaxation, work, and sightseeing, catering to all your needs!

Not a welcoming feeling at all! What happened to St. Regis?
Pros:

Well, let me start off by saying I called the Hotel in advance to see if a room type that we had on 2 other occasions was available 23 Nov. 25. Had the pleasure of speaking to Deborah, who had kindly given my number to a staff member here to return my call . Well 2 days later, I spoke with Deborah again, and she was shocked that the call had not be returned (I was not). So we have decided to cancel our upcoming stay. No need stay at a place that does not respect it's Titanium customers.
My first call, I waited was over 4 hours. I understood that the front desk gets busy. So I called back, and was told to give it another hour or 2. To no prevail. I even waited 48 hours. Disappointing! So sad because everything went well the first 2 stays.
