KristinaUnited StatesOur stay at Watergate was very relaxing
We had a Suite on 3rd floor on corner with wrap around balcony. The shower is amazing and so is room service food. Having extra half bath is def a plus. Staff are very nice. There is a liquor store right in building…

Very unique , clean and historic
The location required an uber to most destinations
WangUnited States性价比实在不高。
房间大小还差不多符合预期。 房间还比较干净。
员工只是礼貌， 但不真诚。 离店时乘坐的电梯就是不停大堂这一层。 反复折腾。 房间内淋浴部分水会漏出到马桶这里。 放在迷你吧台上的小包装零食与免费矿泉水放在一起， 并无标价， 退房时也无说明， 离店后追加收费。
RhondaGeorgiaGreat location!!!
No microwaves and toilet smelled like sewage. They fixed it but 2 days later it smelled again but I checked out the next day so 🤷🏾♀️

Payment & property
Paid when you book, not at the desk.
Rates include the taxes and fees we can read.
The property may take a card at check-in for incidentals.
What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- The pet fee and any size limit, which is where these bookings usually come apart.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether breakfast is in the rate or added at checkout, and what time it runs.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about The Watergate Hotel Georgetown
What time is check-in and check-out at The Watergate Hotel Georgetown?
Check-in is from 4:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does The Watergate Hotel Georgetown allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at The Watergate Hotel Georgetown?
Yes — parking is available on site at a charge the property sets. We check the rate and whether a space can be reserved against your dates.
Does The Watergate Hotel Georgetown have a pool?
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Is breakfast included at The Watergate Hotel Georgetown?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does The Watergate Hotel Georgetown have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at The Watergate Hotel Georgetown?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does The Watergate Hotel Georgetown have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at The Watergate Hotel Georgetown?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 4:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book The Watergate Hotel Georgetown?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
