“Overall nice stay. Relatively inexpensive Uber rides across the city and some things are walkable. Service was great. Rooms are a little dated but still you have what you need and the bed was really comfortable. The lobby and restaurants were very nice. But tops in service was Mei Shih at the restaurant that we saw every morning at breakfast. She treats her guests like they are family and starts you off in a great mood every day. Recommend staying at this hotel.”
“The room was good. But I still wonder why they put full size beds instead of queens in the rooms. They are not big enough for a couple that are accustomed to a king sized bed. The one thing that was a complete stand out was our waitress for breakfast. Her name was Mei Shih. She was the best part of this hotel experience. Cheerful and so very pleasant upon our first morning there. We requested her the rest of the week because of how amazing she was. She is honestly a shining star in this hotel. Mei Shih gets a raving review from us.”
“This is my first time at the Washington Hilton, and I really like it. Of course, the hotel is lovely, and the location is great, but what has made my experience thus far incredible is the service from Isa, the front desk associate. Isa is warm, knowledgeable, and has a beautifully kind heart. I have traveled a lot and stayed in many Hilton-branded hotels. I have never felt more welcomed than I have these past couple of days. Washington Hilton, you have a gem at your location, and that gem is Isa!”
“I stayed at this hotel during the 2026 NAIMUNs and really, what a pleasant experience it was. The rooms were spacious and the service was impeccable. There was not a single negative point during the stay and all I could do is to express my gratitude regarding this unforgettable experience. I would like also to thank Mr. Ismael Essaghir and Mr. Weldu Reda for helping me a lot during my sojourn.”
“We had the best experience checking in with Isabel at the front desk. Our room wasn’t ready and she could tell we were absolutely dragging after flying out very early. She spoke with Shak and was able to find a room ready for us right away. We were SO thankful as we had our in laws with us and they were exhausted. I can’t thank Isabel and Shak enough for taking care of us! The hotel itself is nice and although it is renovated it definitely still smells of 1942. It can be difficult to get an uber or Lyft into the front circle for pick up. The closest metro station is a good walk away. Do NOT have breakfast in the downstairs buffet. It is EXPENSIVE and the food is comparative to a complimentary continental breakfast. Go out to Starbucks or Panera to start your day. The hotel is located is a great area of town with a lot of food options.”
“I had an outstanding experience at the Washington Hilton, and I want to specifically recognize Bereket at the front desk for delivering exceptional customer service. When I first arrived to my room, it hadn’t been cleaned. I went back down to the front desk, not upset at all, just looking to get it sorted out. Bereket immediately took ownership of the situation and went above and beyond to make things right. He quickly got me into a new room — and not just any room, but one with an incredible view of the city. On top of that, he generously comped $50 toward dining, which was completely unexpected and very much appreciated. Throughout the entire interaction, he was professional, apologetic, and genuinely focused on taking care of me as a guest — even when I reassured him it wasn’t his fault. It’s rare to see that level of accountability and care. Bereket truly represents what great hospitality should look like. Because of him, what could have been a negative experience turned into a great one. 5 stars all the way. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
