The Park Hyatt, Washington DC is by far our favorite hotel in Washington, DC. It actually started our love for the Park Hyatt hotels many years ago, as it was the first Park Hyatt we ever visited. Situated in the upscale West End neighborhood, this luxury hotel is just moments away from the White House, Dupont Circle, Georgetown, and the vibrant culture, history, and attractions that define Washington, D.C.
The Park Hyatt Washington, DC has been our favorite hotel while in the US capital for many years and it has never disappointed us. The minimalistic architecture and decorations, the extremely comfortable rooms and suites, the excellent onsite restaurant and bar and the welcoming staff have made this hotel a top choice for us. ❤️

Checking in/out of the Park Hyatt Washington, DC
Check-in is 3pm and check-out is 12pm, which is a bit later than many hotels. If you arrive early the hotel will store your bags at a minimum and will also accommodate you if your room is not available. Additionally, if you are a World of Hyatt program member, you can request a late check out. Becoming a World of Hyatt program member is free, and it provides great program loyalty perks – early check-in, late check-out, free breakfast (at the Globalist level) and more. We highly recommend it.

Dining options
The award-winning Blue Duck Tavern is a one Michelin star restaurant which boasts an open kitchen and really deep wine cellar. It serves breakfast, lunch and dinner and all the food we have tried has been of the highest quality. The restaurant uses locally sourced ingredients, and the presentation of each dish is beautiful. In the evening, guests can explore a tasting menu, which we highly recommend. Be sure to grab a reservation for dinner as the restaurant is often completely booked. ❤️
For a more casual yet equally tasty experience, try the Blue Duck Tavern lounge. Explore the large selection of handcrafted cocktails and the extensive wine list, while enjoying bites from the Blue Duck restaurant. If you have a large party, book one of the chic glass-enclosed tables for a special experience in a unique setting. ❤️
The Tea Cellar is another unique and super special experience. From 4pm to midnight daily, you can explore a large selection of teas prepared to perfection. If you are a tea drinker, be sure to try this at least once during your stay. ❤️
