From the moment we drove up, the staff was greeting us. From the Valet, to the concierge that assisted us to our room, it was a regal experience. Our room was luxurious. From the waterfall shower, to the robes and especially the bed that felt like a cloud. Every penny spent was well worth it here. Lastly, the restaurant was a beautiful introduction to the cuisine of DC. Absolutely astonishing the taste buds. I will definitely be returning to this particular hotel.
