The hotel

In DC's Navy Yard area is the Thompson Washington. From the Roman-style restaurant to the rooftop bar, you'll be sure to be impressed by this sophisticated and relaxed hotel. You'll be just a 15-minute drive from the city's sights like The White House, and there's a handful of bars and restaurants within a short stroll from the front doors of this place. And after a great nights sleep, wake up to the sights and sounds of the city below from your oversized windows.

Valet was amazing so kind and helpful Would definitely come back for another visit. Can’t complain they made very comfortable made me feel like I was home. Make sure you tip your valet. Their positive attitude and willingness to go the extra mile for customers is appreciated.

Wonderful hotel and beautiful room- 2 blocks away from Nationals Park and around the corner from scenic riverfront boardwalk - only complaint was pricey valet parking and no one to help unload/load the car- otherwise a really great one night stay !

Fantastic experience that deemed this location a " re-visit must ".... From the moment you engaged with the staff during check-in to the area in which the hotel is located, everything was beyond perfect. Looking forward to attending a MLB game during the summer and enjoying the city again....

This was my first stay at the Thompson DC. The facility is nice, but I had far too many issues for my short 18 hour stay that was supposed to be a relaxing staycation. That’s never happened to me before at a Thompson and hopefully this was an aberration. I understand issues happen and I would cautiously give it another try. Issues included: -We ordered hot/sweet wings at the rooftop bar. The wings came with no ranch or blue cheese dressing, and we were told that they don’t have either. -In the morning, we tried to call for room service. We called 5x between 8:30-9:30am before someone picked up. After about 30 seconds it rolls over to a voicemail box so you can’t even wait on hold, and there is no way to place an order online either. -Room service came packed up as a to-go order like it is from uber eats. Not a big deal, but other Thompsons (and most luxury hotels) bring the food on a tray with plates, real utensils, etc. -We were billed a 20% service charge for the globalist breakfast benefit that was not removed on the folio. While they did address this when I called, I needed to wait on hold for 15 mins to talk to someone. Read less
