  • Location was great.
  • The door was marked with placard about carpet being wet. Floor was slightly damp $38.00 a night parking fee.

“Great view but a damp floor, musty odor.”

  • Very friendly and helpful. I felt like I was truly a guest.
  • It did not have complimentary coffee in the lobby.

“Excellent. The elevators were very different then normal and I liked them. The staff was very friendly, from the cleaning staff, security, front desk and lobby. We had never been to DC so we had lots of questions and needed advise. It was given easily and it was correct.”

  • I liked the quality of the hotel and the efficiency and friendliness of the staff.
  • At 5'11" , 214 lbs, I found the beds in my room too small.

“This is a great place to stay if you are in DC, the quality of the hotel, the efficiency of the staff and the feeling of welcome was fantastic. My only problem is check out time. Even the late check out of 1:00 pm as opposed to normal 12:00 pm check out was very inconvenient for me.”

  • Was odor of paint in the room.

“Hotel was spacious and modern. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly, helpful, and courteous. Dessert at hotel bar was below par - bought in, not made on site.”

  • Very convenient to most attractions.
  • The room was in need of maintenance.

“The hotel has a great location. But the paint on my wall was peeling and my shower head was coming off the wall. Comfy bed, small room, decent view.”

“Overall the J W Marriott was very clean, the staff was friendly and helpful and the room was comfortable. The feeling of the lobby was very welcoming.”

  • The hotel concierge and bell hops were excellent. The beds are super comfortable. The lobby is beautiful and the location is perfect for sightseeing.
  • The room seemed a bit small.

“This hotel exceeded our expectations. It is centrally located in the heart of downtown D.C. Walking distance to major attractions like the White House and Lincoln Memorial. We could see the top of the Washington Memorial from our hotel room. The lobby and rooms are beautiful, beds and sheets are comfy (they have feather bedding) and the staff bent over backwards. Stay here for sure if you want to be comfortable with the extra amenities of a nice hotel. We did not have time to use the workout facility, but we checked it out and it was really clean. They even have saunas. The perfect place to stay and see D.C. in style.”

  • Perfect location towards sightseeing in DC.
  • The looks from outside does not reflect how beautiful the hotel is inside.

“Luxury installations, fine furniture and great services. Superb location.”

  • Lobby and decor were beautiful.
  • Hotel staff was not helpful.

“The hotel was beautiful, but our experience was horrible! After a long conference, all we wanted to do was rent a movie and get room service. However, the televisions were out. When we called the front desk, we were told that there was a storm outside and that the hotel was out. Since we had just come from outside, we knew that it was not even raining. We had to initiate any phone call and after two hours of back and forth were still told that the TVs were all out. We found it interesting because the rooms across the way had their TVs working! I understand these things happen, but at least be honest about it! An annoying experience.”

  • Location 2 blocks from the White House. Friendly knowledgeable helpful employees.
  • Great hotel but, still had to pay for internet service.

“Had a great time at the JW Marriott. The room was small but very comfortable, view was great and the bed was amazing. I can't say enough about the location of this hotel, the monuments were close enough to walk to them, and we felt very safe about walking the DC streets any time of night. In one word. Phenomenal!”

  • Location cannot be beat for visiting the Mall, Smithsonian, and Monuments. Metro is close by as well as a selection of dining and shopping.
  • Parking is expensive.

“Lobby, room, and all public spaces tasteful and emaculate. Hotel is quiet and friendly, as well as being well situated for all that Washington DC has to offer.”

  • Elegant, clean, conveniently located and Starbuck's in lobby!

“Everything you would hope for and expect in a luxury hotel. Elegant, spacious, quiet, hospitable and conveniently located. I loved that Starbuck's was right in the lobby. Since we didn't dip into the room's snack bar (though tempting), our check-out was automatic--nothing to do. Finally, getting down to pet peeves: we were never disturbed by, or even aware of, housekeeping. Everything was kept elegant and beautiful by invisible means. It doesn't get better than that.”

  • The service.
  • NA.

“The bell staff is extraordinary - the backbone of the reputation of the hotel. Check in staff is diffident - not overly welcoming, but the bell staff covers for that. The restaurant in this hotel is overpriced and the food is average. The restaurant was most often empty. Hotel needs to evaluate.”

  • It was very clean and well decorated. The beds were very plush and extremely luxurious. The televisions were all flat screen.
  • The room service was extremely slow. I called three times over the course of an hour to ask for a bottle opener and ended up having to go down myself.

“Overall, this hotel was excellent. The only problem was that the service wasn't the best. I asked for a bottle opener and had to wait almost 2 hours but finally ended up going downstairs myself to get it from the restaurant. Other than that, the hotel was beautiful and an excellent choice.”
