Excellent Stay in The Wharf!
Pros:

We recently stayed at Hyatt House Washington DC / The Wharf while visiting the DC area for a quick getaway celebrating our 30th anniversary. Our 3-night stay was excellent thanks to the awesome front desk staff, Donathan and Tonay! Both were very friendly and welcoming our entire stay and provided helpful information about the hotel and surrounding area. The location offers great views of the Potomac River, a boardwalk with plenty of restaurants (food pictured is from Hanks Oyster Bar on the boardwalk) and only a few blocks from the National Mall, cultural attractions, shopping, entertainment and very convenient to Reagan National (DCA) airport. There is an onsite fitness center, restaurant, stunning seasonal roof-top pool, pet friendly for a fee and hot breakfast is included. I highly recommend this hotel for business or pleasure.

Krásné místo ve Washingtonu
Pros:

Krásný hotel v úžasné části města na nábřeží řeky, moderní lokalita s relativně dobrým přístupem do centra (pěšky, kolo, taxi), metro sem nejezdí. Hotel je moderní, čistý.

Cons:

Standardní americká snídaně, takže na evropské poměry nic moc. Pokoj jsme měli malý, s kuchyňskou linkou, která pro nás byla zbytečná. Když jsme rozložili gauč pro děti, nedalo se po pokoji přejít.

Great location
Pros:

Fantastic experience at the price point! We traveled with 2 couples and all of our kids. The wharf was a great location to "feel" like a resort with the water views and rooftop pool, yet also be walkable or a quick taxi/uber ride to all the main city attractions. The rooms were clean and spacious, free wifi and complimentary breakfast with a nice amount of options.

It was the perfect location for us. It was nice to walk along the water. The staff made out stay very pleasant.
Pros:

The hotel was very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

We didn’t like the cabinet that the TV was on bc it impeded the flow of the room and the lighting could be brighter.

Impeccabile
Pros:

L'hotel è curato, le camere sono spaziose e hanno una bella vista sul porto. Il personale è molto disponibile ed educato. La piscina all'ultimo piano è ottima per il relax. La zona esterna comoda per godersi l'atmosfera e il tramonto. La colazione è varia dal dolce al salato. Da scegliere assolutamente anche per la zona, la migliore di Washington. Si è sicuramente un pochino più "lontani" dal centro, ma ne vale la pena. Zona ricca di localini, bella atmosfera e bei tramonti. Bravi!

Cons:

Un consiglio. mi sarebbe piaciuto trovare qualcosa in più in bagno (crema idratante, cuffia doccia, salviettina per il trucco ecc). In compenso prodotti bagno (shampoo, bagno doccia e balsamo) di ottima qualità.
