The stay was alright. Given the reputation of the Watergate Hotel, there were several issues that surprised me. My girlfriensand I stayed for Valentines Day. The whisky bar was excellent, and the room was kinda nice. But…The showers did not have hot water, and we were told the solution was to “let the water run until it gets hot,” which unsurprisingly, did not happen. There was also a loud banging pipe noise any time the heating kicked on.
Don’t get me wrong, the bed was comfy and the bathrobes were nice. But no hot water and loud noises at night were a bit tough.
Although, I have to give a ton of credit to the staff. They were super understanding and did their best to remedy the situation.
