Top Brightwood Hotel Reviews

Hyatt House Washington DC/The Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot on the wharf. Breakfast was the same each day, but it was hot and delicious."

Washington Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the pool! Drinks and food were really good, and even enjoyed poolside service. The room was dated but clean and the AC worked really well. The gym was adequate and location of hotel was a walk away from great restaurants where we took advantage of happy hour deals. The ladies of the front desk were extremely friendly, kind and helpful."

Motto by Hilton Washington DC Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We love staying at Motto by Hilton micro hotels. The rooms are small, but well designed and functional. The design and furniture is always interesting and the lobbies and restaurants have been fantastic, this one is no exception. Staff were friendly and helpful, especially Marcus, and seemed to enjoy their job (rare these days). Added bonus is the awesome free toiletries by Basd!"

Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center

8/10 Good

"Prior to the appointment I had called to talk with someone about getting a room facing the water. However when I got there the person at the front desk made it seem as though the number I called was incorrect and after showing the number I called, I was told that it was the resort number but sometimes the people on the other side of the phone are not at the property so the information I was given about my room being able to change. The room we had was nice overall but would have been nicer. The location was central to where we needed to go. There was a concierge person (older woman) who gave my partner and me suggestions for M & S for lunch and an appetizer card, which was helpful. Overall, a good stay."
