Excellent wellness hotel. Great pool. Great location.
Set along the banks of the Potomac River, The Watergate Hotel is a luxurious urban resort with mid-century modern architecture.

The renovated guest rooms and suites have artful, mid-century modern styling with sleek wood furnishings, large windows, work desks, 48-inch flat-screen TVs, and Nespresso coffee makers. The spa-inspired marble bathrooms have custom La Bottega amenities, plush robes, and lighted makeup vanities.
