Had to visit for work. One of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. I cannot wait to go back again. Clean comfortable rooms, super attentive service, they set the bar high. Excellent location.

My husband and I took our two small children to Washington DC to visit with family. We were fortunate enough to stay at the Hay Adams. Beautiful hotel and complete luxury and comfort. The staff were helpful and pleasant especially being that we had two small children with us who were not always the best behaved. The room was very... More

I was in Washington, D.C. this week for a business Conference and stayed here 2 nights. I usually stay in Northern Virginia but this time decided to stay in DC. I have been fortunate to stay in many world class hotels, and I can say without reservation that The Hay-Adams is world class. From the moment you arrive to when... More

Stayed here for Valentines Day. Very nice property and rooms. Room service is very prompt.

The Lafayette Restaurant is exceptional in every way (food, service, wine list, and atmosphere). We very much enjoyed the Junior Suite – spacious and immaculately clean, and... More

The only disappointing thing was the refreshment center sensors. By... More

Easter weekend in lovely hotel; saw the Obamas going in/out of St John's across the street from our window. Fun bar in basement. Lobby restaurant lovely. Sunday brunch roof-top was "ok" but I hate buffets and it was too $$$$.

I just visited the Hay Adams since their amazing renovation of the top floor. The banquet rooms afford the most amazing view of the Mall. The staff was exemplary in attentiveness and grace, and the food excellent in taste, freshness and presentation. While the Hay Adams is world renown to DC visitors, Washingtonians would be wise to consider it for... More
