JW Marriott Washington, DC - Washington, District of Columbia

Anthony Manning

If you're looking for a luxurious stay in the heart of Washington, DC, the JW Marriott Washington, DC is an excellent choice. I had the pleasure of staying there a few years ago when I was volunteering at a conference. Even though I was only in town temporarily, my experience at the JW Marriott left such a lasting impression that I often recommend it to friends and visitors now that I live in DC full-time.

Located just a short walk from iconic landmarks like the White House, the National Mall, and numerous Smithsonian museums, the JW Marriott is perfectly situated for both first-time visitors and locals who want to explore the city's best attractions. Its central location makes it easy to get around, whether you're walking, hopping on the metro, or grabbing a quick ride share.

As a guest, I was immediately impressed by the hotel's sleek and modern design, blending sophistication with comfort. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, offering a perfect retreat after a long day of conference activities. The hotel’s service was top-notch — staff was friendly and attentive, which made my stay feel even more special.

The on-site restaurant offers a great selection of meals, and if you're looking for something more casual or to venture outside, there are countless dining options nearby. I was also lucky to have had the opportunity to use the fitness center, which is fully equipped for a great workout.

One of the best things about the JW Marriott, especially for events, is the conference facilities. The meeting rooms are large and equipped with the latest tech, making it a prime location for hosting business meetings or conferences. I was volunteering during a big event, and everything went smoothly — the staff made sure everything ran on time and with precision.

Now that I live in DC full-time, I frequently find myself walking past the hotel, and I always feel a sense of nostalgia about my time there. It’s definitely a great place for visitors and offers a luxurious experience with all the perks of staying in the heart of the city. Whether you're here for work, a conference, or just a quick getaway, the JW Marriott is a place that offers both comfort and convenience.

Super clean, friendly, comfortable hotel in a great location. The food wasn’t great but there’s a lot of local options so it’s not an issue. The rooms are well appointed and the concierge super helpful. On Christmas Day my son was given a cookie decorating kit which was a lovely touch

The location of this hotel is amazing!! You can easily walk to many DC attractions and there are many great restaurants nearby. The lobby is beautiful and there are many well appointed sitting areas and work stations. The staff is mostly friendly. |I did not give this hotel a five star rating due to the very small rooms and small beds and the extremely expensive parking which is valet only so on top of the $69 per night parking. You are also tipping each time you need to drive your car. |I would definitely recommend this hotel for cleanliness and location and good service.

I loved my stay at JW Marriott Washington DC! The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully appointed, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable visit. The highlight was definitely the incredible view of the Washington Monument right from my room—truly breathtaking, especially at sunrise and sunset. The staff was welcoming and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. The location was ideal, close to iconic landmarks and attractions, making it easy to explore the city. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Washington, DC!

Very good location and staff was warm and welcoming. Rooms were nice and fresh. 1331 Bar was very good. Executive lounge area was dated and only had 1 type of dessert. Nothing else to choose from. Very disappointing. That is why hotel doesn’t get 5 stars.

Upon check-in I was lucky enough to be upgraded to “The Adams” Presidential Suite. It was a huge, incredibly spacious room with pristine cleanliness. The balcony view of the monument was breathtaking, and the customer service was top-notch throughout my stay. The hotel's location made it easy to access all the main attractions. Highly recommend!"

Everything was great including the front valet. Very convenient location. Clean, kind, professional. Also Great for if you like to go for morning jogs with a nice view. Starbucks inside is just an added bonus.

While the location of this hotel was great - we’ve also stayed at the Willard across the street and had a far better experience. From the start we had to ask for help to unload our bags at the valet, which should have been a sign that this was not the luxury experience we expected at a JW Marriott The rooms are pretty basic, housekeeping left a lot to be desired during our stay - one day not even showing up until nearly 5p while we were changing for dinner. |We also had two rooms and they put us on separate floors, even though we’d pre-requested adjoining rooms or adjacent if that wasn’t possible. We did appreciate the view though. |We ate breakfast at the hotel only one day - it was not very good at all and we chose to eat elsewhere the following days.
