"Not only was the property beautiful, clean and inviting, Salamander's customer service should be a global standard! They left no stone unturned in terms of exceeding my requests and needs. Let's get into the food, too. Dogon was AMAZING as usual, but the in-room dining, brunch experience was to live for as well. From check-in to check-out, top-tier luxury was served!!!"

"This hotel is in a safe and clean neighborhood across from stadiums. There are plenty of restaurants, shops, and bars all walking distance. Navy Yard is mostly a young professionals neighborhood with tall luxury apartments so you see a lot of them walking their dogs. There are two metro stations really close by and it is only about a 15-20 drive from DCA. The king suite was spacious and perfect for two adults and one kid. "

"The rooms are a nice size and very clean (I am very picky). The staff is helpful. We had a small issue with our room and the staff took care of it quickly. It is a 15 minute walk to the Mall/Smithsonian. A 2 minute walk to the Spy museum. There is a food court and some restaurants across the driveway and down an escalator. The Warf has some great food places too and it is about a 10 minute walk but you have to go down/up quite a few stairs. Very convenient location."
