Love to stay here, amazing bar (even stocked with Pappy Van Winkle!), staff is extremely friendly, plenty of food and parking nearby. Room views are generally excellent, river-side rooms have stellar view of the harbor, river, and distant views of the DC mall area. I also ALWAYS love the aloft bathrooms and toiletries! More

While there is probably an audience (one that skews younger than my 50 years) that finds this property hip and modern, I for one am not impressed. The rooms are small, with the bed running across the room instead of length wise, which I've been told is "European." It's been years since I've been in Europe, but it just feels... More

I have never stayed at an aloft property and I was excited to try it. Upon checking in, I was informed that there was no valet parking service. I had to run up to my room to drop off my bags and then run back down to take my car about a block around the corner to a parking garage.... More

We stayed for one night. The moment you see the polished cement floors, you know this is a bit different. The rooms are small, but adequiate. It had a Scandanavian spartan feel. If you have a room overlooking the Potomac, you have a great view. Our television kept freezing and we had to keep turning it off to reset it.... More

We stayed here for a little weekend getaway and it was ok. The location is great and it's close to everything because the whole National Harbor area is only about 8 blocks square. The room was nice and clean, but we did have an adjoining room and even though the door was closed, we could hear the other gentleman staying... More

Staying at the ALOFT for a business trip wasn't the best idea in the world. While it has an interesting design and layout of the rooms is packed with modern features, it just doesn't feel like a hotel in the end. A lack of a basic restaurant in the hotel (only have to go items) means that one has to... More

Dear AKCTravel, Thank you for providing us with your honest feedback. We apologize if you did not find our accommodations the best fit for your recent business trip. We are sorry to hear if the lack of a hotel restaurant was an inconvenience, but perhaps another Starwood property would be a better fit for the future. We hope to redeem... More

There are excellent dining and shopping options right outside the hotel. The rooms are small but comfortable, and price is right, compared to the big hotel down the street. More

This is not the hotel for you if you are looking for plush full service accommodations. Aloft has a very clean feel and minimal styling. Common areas border on stark and could use more warmth. Lobby is on second floor after going up a set of modern/open concrete stairs. Lobby has a very open - warehouse feel and is divided... More
