Canopy by Hilton Washington DC The Wharf

Washington DC, USA

Virgin rating

The hotel

Totally in keeping with its sophisticated home city, Canopy by Hilton Washington DC The Wharf sweeps you up in its uber-contemporary spirit. With its incredible location — best admired from the roof terrace — the urban-appropriate greenery, and a barely-there glass balcony create a serene setting for viewing Potomac River. It may only be a walk from the metro, water taxis, and The Wharf, but it has complimentary Canopy bikes for exploring. And you can return for local brew, wine, and spirit tastings at Canopy Central, which is also the venue for its complimentary artisanal breakfasts (if you don’t opt for the free Break Fast Bag in-room delivery, that is).

Zero. One of the worse experiences. As we arrived at the valet around 6 pm , it took 5 minutes for one person to come out. You can see through the window all 3 guys do not want to come out on this windy and cold day. Then the valet told me there is no spot available. Either I go to other side which is 10 minutes walking away or I can… Read more

Either I go to other side which is 10 minutes walking away or I can cancel my reservation What? I am here to see cherry blossom So I went up to the front desk and spoke to Antonio. They told me the same thing. They will cancel my reservation and I will get my refund back. Don’t they understand this is not the point. This is the worse customer service hotel ever. Worse, as I walk down stair to my car. The valet asked me for $20 and they will help me with the parking. Who is managing this hotel. The valet? I hope someone get back to me. It’s 2 am. I am still pissed. Read less

The Canopy is our favorite go to places when visiting DC. The staff is amazing! From the check in process, which was smooth and super friendly, to the servers at breakfast! Gigi went above and beyond making sure our little ones enjoyed their meal. Such a nice experience.

My wife and I were in town to relax and celebrate Valentine’s Day. The staff was extremely courteous and helpful. We had a great stay, the room and view was nice and the restaurant on the 2nd floor always has great options! This is a great hotel and close to VA!

Derek and Antonio at front desk were the best! Location is perfect, restaurant has good food. We enjoyed our stay a lot. Breakfast was good. Also, they have whiskey bar on rooftop. It’s a 15 min walk to downtown area. I recommend this place to everyone
