I’ve stayed at the Park Hyatt DC many times, and written about it occasionally. I reviewed an upgrade to a Georgetown suite in 2021 and wrote about another stay in 2022 but didn’t mention my stay here last year.

The hotel is a category 6 redemption, so 21,000 / 25,000 / 29,000. Rates can often be quite low here, and certainly were when I booked this for a December stay, with base rooms available under $300 per night. December and January are very much off-peak in D.C., at least until the inauguration.

The hotel is convenient for Georgetown and Foggy Bottom. I have liked their restaurant Blue Duck Tavern, since before it earned and then lost a Michelin star. It’s one of the more aesthetically attractive dining spaces in the city.

Staff at the front desk are uniformly friendly and helpful.

Here’s the bar:

Outside of the bar, communal spaces at the property – aside from health facilities – are limited.

Georgetown Suite

You enter the suite down a long corridor. Immediately to the right is a guest bath. Then at the end of the corridor, turn right and there’s a dining table and living room area.

There were multiple places in the room with bottles of water and the hotel was happy to provide more complimentary. One spot was with the coffee setup in the dining area.

There was a gift waiting in the room – a bottle of still water with welcome note and inside chocolate dried cherries.

The living room closes off from the rest of the suite. The next room is a small office.

The bedroom is fairly small, but adequate.

Georgetown Suite Bathroom

The bathrooms are fantastic, at least in the junior suites and above. They’re large. The walk-in showers are nice, with built-in mirror and multiple shower heads. The bathtub is even in the shower in the Georgetown Suite that I had on this stay.

As you step from the bedroom into the bathroom there are bathrobes on hooks.

There’s dual sinks, and a toilet. You can close off the entire bathroom from the bedroom, but there’s no separate door on toilet room which felt like an oversight.

Back by the toilet area is also a wardrobe which is fairly well-sized.

At the other end of the bathroom is the shower and tub.

The Georgetown Suite also has a second, smaller bathroom right off the entry to the room.

Park Hyatt Globalist Breakfast – Room Service

Globalist breakfast can be taken either in the restaurant or via room service. The credit is $60 per person, but if doing room service they flag that the $5 delivery charge is not waived. On my last stay here a year ago it was waived, not this time, so your mileage may vary.

Breakfast starts at 6:30 a.m., and since I tend to get up much earlier than that my days started at the Starbucks on the opposite corner. (Directly across one street from the hotel is the Fairmont, across the other street the Westin, by the way.)

Honestly, $60 doesn’t go very far once you factor tax and tip/service. However they’ll do breakfast for up to 4 (two adults, two children if you tell them that’s how many in your room) and if your children don’t eat much the credit stretches better. Here’s the menu:

Park Hyatt DC Overall

This is an aging property. It’s been kept up well, but it’s time to renovate. It’s no longer one of the top-end luxury hotels in the city. During non-peak periods, you’ll find the hotel under $300 a night though, which is a great price point for what you’re getting.

They do consistently upgrade Globalist members when they can, though, at a minimum to a junior suite. And Globalist benefits are stackable here (in my experience) with American Express Fine Hotels & Resorts benefits.

One thing that I thought was missing was any sort of extra special touch, such as a food, beverage or snack amenity with turndown service.
