“Disappointing but very impressive common areas”

Reviewed May 20, 2013 NEW

When I was unpacking my affairs, I stepped on some cocktail nuts that were apparently left over from the prior resident and that the housekeeping staff had missed when making-up the room. Some of the pillows on the bed were very lumpy. I shuddered to think what they would look like if I had taken off the pillow cover to... More

“wear a suit”

Reviewed May 18, 2013 NEW

FYI: If you fly here from the west coast on a red eye and show up in sweats or shorts in the lobby in the morning, every other person will have on a suit. Cafe du Parc has great French influenced food including breakfast. Get coffee there. It is Illly and MUCH better than room service coffee. There will be... More

“When can I move in?”

From the moment we arrived at the front door - beautiful entrance, wonderful service, perfect location - we felt like we were in the right place. Lively sidewalk patio + historical significance + quality beds and bathrooms... the list of quality features is endless. The White House is only a block away and a quick view down Pennsylvania Avenue to... More

“Wonderful historic hotel .”

If you like historic hotels as much as I do... You will love the Willard. Beautiful rooms, great staff, and can't beat the location! So close to The Mall, the White House, monuments.... Wish I had a chance to stay more than two days. Maybe next time!

“One of the best in DC”

Reviewed May 16, 2013

There is a reason people consider this the hotel one of the best in DC. They pay attention to the smallest details to make for a great experience, and the staff was incredibly attentive to everything about our stay. It's a beautiful classic, hotel lobby (with some of the city's best Christmas decorations) and the rooms are appointed for the... More

Dear wileyc0y0te, Thank you for taking the time to write this very complimentary review. The Willard is a beautiful building and our lobby is a place to be seen.

“great location, good for families, amazing breakfast”

Reviewed May 13, 2013

Stayed at the Willard early May, with my wife and 3 young kids. It was much better than I expected, the official photos do it a disservice. Pros: 1.Great location, right next to the White House and very close to the Mall and all the museums. We greatly enjoyed all our walks (the kids loved the flowers, trees and squirrels).... More
