While the reception area is small and quaint, this location is situated in a very convenient location on the river, where plenty of restaurants and bars are within walking distance. The spa and pool area are attractive and calming and the rooftop restaurant, Moonraker, has a wonderful view of the river and city. The property is clean and well maintained, the room was quite nice, and the staff and service were outstanding (save for one receptionist with a hyphenated name and skull tattoo on her chest, who is curt and borderline rude). Commendations for Nya at the spa, Donald and the young lady from the pool area, Executive Chef Barry, Yana in reception, and Janet from the Pendry bar. The bell staff were also to be commended. Almost everyone went out of their way to ensure my stay was accommodating, my needs were anticipated and met, thus my expectations as a guest were exceeded. Details were not overlooked and I had a great interactions with 99% of staff. It was a fantastic experience and I would not hesitate to return.

The Pendry DC is a truly beautiful property that delivers all the luxury feels. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed. They accommodated an early check-in, and when I casually mentioned my boyfriend’s birthday and that we were in town for the Cowboy Carter tour, they went above and beyond—later surprising us with a handwritten birthday card and a treat from their bakery. Such a personal, thoughtful touch! We spent most of our stay enjoying the pool area, which does fill up quickly, but I was lucky to snag seats every day. It’s a great place to relax with fantastic views. Our room was spotless throughout our stay, with sweet little trinkets left behind by housekeeping that added a lovely personal touch. Staff in general were undeniably pleasant and welcoming. The only disappointment came at Moonraker, the rooftop restaurant. We had a reservation for a celebratory dinner but ended up sitting for an hour without any service. It was disheartening, especially since it was meant to be a special night. I did share this with the manager, who was very apologetic and offered to comp dinner the following evening or breakfast instead, which I appreciated as a genuine attempt to make things right. Overall, I’d rate the Pendry DC an 8.5 out of 10. It’s a gorgeous, design-forward hotel with warm service and plenty of thoughtful details—just be sure to plan for the busy pool scene and clarify expectations at the rooftop if it’s a big occasion.

Issues when checking out.I was not allowed to self check out and was told that my card was not going through. I presented a different but eventually asked to present the original card. The lady said that the person who checked me in messed up but it was her who messed up. The charge went through the original card I presented when checking in.
