Ritz-Carlton Georgetown Review
Read our Washington, D.C. hotel reviews. Or post your own.
Ritz-Carlton Georgetown
$$$$, Georgetown
Fodor's Review:
D.C.'s second Ritz-Carlton is smaller than its Foggy Bottom sister and a complete departure from the ornateness typical of the chain. Opened in 2003, this understated yet sophisticated Ritz is adjacent to the C&O Canal and built on the site of Georgetown's 1932 incinerator. The contemporary hotel is a stone's throw from the waterfront and a block from M Street, Georgetown's main shopping street. Guest rooms are connected by brick hallways with carefully chosen pieces from regional American artists. The upper-level rooms and suites facing south have amazing views of the Potomac, and all have feather duvets, goose-down pillows, marble baths, and access to a personal concierge. The hotel's sexy Fahrenheit Restaurant serves contemporary American cuisine.

Best Hotel in DC
Posted by Dennis from DC on 9/25/06
After reading some of the reviews here, I was wondering if I stayed in the same hotel as some of the other reviewers. First of all, the hotel is not located across from a firehouse (that is the Ritz-DC). As for the service, my experience has been above reproach. I have stayed in the Ritz--Georgetown twice and have had exemplary service throughout the hotel. I live in DC and love this hotel so much, I stay on occassion as a treat. The spa is excellent, very small, quiet, and feels like you are the only one there. The rooms like the rest of the hotel are sleek and luxurious, and not overly ornate as other RCs. If you are looking for a quiet private retreat with great personal service, you will not be disappointed.A Den of Dishonesty & Horrendous Housekeeping

Great location; however, for $700 square foot, a dysfunctional 'art' building. Housekeepers are regularly dishonest to protect their jobs; best staff have left in recent months; many of the lower level employees remaining are illiterate in English; pompous and arrogant leadership. Specialize in price gouging. The Four Seasons in Georgetown has much better service, new decor and a lower price with a real spa and health club. No comparison.Loved this atypical R-C
