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).

They offer valet parking. The rooms are very up to par. There was nothing wrong with out room. We stayed 4 days & room service came daily. We did not eat at their restaurant because we chose others but theirs looked very nice. There was a bakery with coffee & sandwiches on the first floor which was faster service than Starbucks which was right next door to them. I would stay here again. Read less

The good: early check in, spacious suite, quiet, good location.

The good: early check in, spacious suite, quiet, good location. The bad: floors were sticky, carpets needed to be vacuumed, towel quality was awful and only got one hand towel, took hours to bring us decent towels, safe did not work, coffee maker leaked water, smoke detector in bedroom has a white flashing light that you can see even with your eyes closed, in the upgrade package it states that breakfast is included and front desk said that was not the case, terrible water pressure in sinks, very poor lighting above bathroom sinks. We would not have upgraded for $84/night if we knew all of the above, the room we had was already $450. Read less

It is worthier. I would rather spend more money to my accomodation rather than food from outside restaurant. Feel relex and comfortable make me and my family happy. Everyone already know happy wife happy life. Good location as well

This hotel is beautiful and clean. Amazing location at The Wharf with amazing views of the water. I stayed in room 832 and trust me when I say I think it's the best view in the hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful. I didn't get to try any of the restaurants because I was mostly in and out of the hotel. I would stay here again for sure, but only… Read more

My friend and I came down for a concert at the Anthem and we chose to stay with Canopy by Hilton and everyone was so welcoming! The roof top bar is a must see. The views are beautiful & they have a great selection of cocktails, beers, and bubbles! Room was great and we could see the street and water from our view. Loved everything!!
