Stunning floor-to-ceiling waterfront views from river-facing rooms
Walkable access to MGM, Tanger Outlets, and The Capital Wheel
Pet-friendly policy that actually welcomes dogs (up to 40lbs)
快速了解: A solid, scenic business hotel that charges luxury prices for 'full' size beds and $60 valet parking.
@letsgetstamps 的评论: I needed a reliable spot in the DMV and this was perfect. The location is unbeatable for hitting up National Harbor, and the room was super clean. Putting on that robe and checking out the view was my favorite part.
住过这里的客人说
The hype
Guests love the location and views but consistently grumble about the small beds and expensive add-ons.
Reality check
Recent reports of missed housekeeping details (hair on pillows, stained duvets) contradict the generally 'spotless' reputation.
You prioritize a water view over room size
You are attending a conference at the Gaylord but want a quieter place to sleep
You are traveling with a dog
清洁与维护
8.5
Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though recent reviews cite missed details like hair on pillows.
Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Grout is usually white, and glass showers are streak-free.
Maintenance: Good condition. Renovated in 2019, so it doesn't feel dated yet.
Linens & towels: Crisp and white, but check your duvet cover upon arrival (recent stain complaints).
Odors & scents: Signature Westin 'White Tea' scent in the lobby; rooms are generally fresh.

常见问题和隐藏提示
预订前您真正想了解的一切。
Is breakfast included?
No. It's an expensive buffet or à la carte at Sauciety ($16-$30/person). Walk to a nearby cafe instead.
How bad is the parking situation?
Valet is $60/day with in/out privileges. Self-park at the Mariner Garage (183 ft away) for ~$25/day.
Are the beds really that small?
Yes. The 'Double' rooms have 53-inch wide Full beds, not 60-inch Queens. It's a tight squeeze for couples.
Is there a pool?
Yes, a heated indoor pool and whirlpool, open 8am-10pm. Good for laps, not a resort-style hang.
Can I walk to the MGM Casino?
It's a bit of a hike (uphill, ~20 mins) or a very short Uber/shuttle ride. Not a casual stroll in heels.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, very. 2 pets up to 40lbs allowed for a $50 non-refundable fee per night.

✨
Skip the hotel Starbucks line; go to MahoganyBooks Coffee Bar for better local coffee and vibes.
✨
The 'Destination Fee' often includes a daily credit for the lobby market — grab your waters/snacks there before checkout.
✨
Watch the sunset from the public pier near the Capital Wheel instead of paying for a view room if you're on a budget.
