I stayed here when I was in National Harbor for a conference. This is the first AC by Marriott I've…read morestayed in, and I chose it simply for the location and price. It was significantly cheaper than the Gaylord and less than a quarter mile away. Checking in was a little odd. After walking in the door, I had to walk up to the next floor for the lobby- you can also take the elevator up. The hotel is under construction, but I didn't hear any noise. One of the elevators was ACTIVELY under construction when I was there, but still usable. The room itself was cozy and comfortable. It was fine for a couple of nights, and since I was there for a conference, I wasn't in my room much. The room didn't have a microwave, but one is located in the lobby. The mini fridge kept my drinks and leftovers cold. The water pressure, provided shampoo/conditional/body/wash, and hair dryer were wonderful. The phone looked dusty and dirty, but I didn't use it. I actually slept on the other side of the bed so I wouldn't be too close to the phone. I'm not even sure why hotels have phones these days. Everyone has a cell phone. I didn't go to the bar downstairs, but on my second night here, I saw quite a crowd enjoying the bar area. Ironically, some of them were drinking spirits and juices/mixer out of their own red solo cups at the tables. I've never seen that at a hotel before, but I didn't ask questions and just went up to my cozy room to chill. I wasn't a fan of the National Harbor area, but if the conference I attend each year is held is this area again, I'd stay at this hotel again- but I wouldn't use the room phone.

I booked this hotel for a Waterview on my Marriott app. First of all, I am used to receiving a…read moremobile key prior to my arrival. I checked in to this hotel 24 hours in advance, requesting my mobile key, but they wouldn't send it. They kept telling me I had to stop at the desk upon arrival. I felt like that was redundant. I don't have that problem with other hotels. You have a valid credit card on file. I don't understand the problem. Now, if you're familiar with this area. They have a garage across the street available for $24 per 24 hours. With in & out entry. There was no need to move our car. Everything was within walking distance. They offer European Breakfast for $15.00 per person if you're into that. Mine was included with my booking. I have southern roots, and we need a little more than that. It was good, though. Would I do it again. Probably not. Now, onto the room. I booked a Waterview but received a partial Waterview. Our room was on the 5th floor , and one window faced a building. I would have preferred to be higher. There is no microwave in the room. Only a small fridge. There is no closet. Our room was clean. Which is a plus. It's at a convenient location, but I would prefer more space. So, if you're into Lofts, this would be the place for you. I will be considering other hotel options for my next overnight stay. It's probably ok for the short-term stay. Personally, I'm more comfortable with suites.

I stayed at the Gaylord National Harbor for three nights while attending a conference in the hotel…read more I'm no stranger to Gaylords - they are a conference favorite and I have stayed at two of their other locations in Dallas/Grapevine and Nashville. As with most of my other hotel reviews, I'll separate this into pros and cons - so here we go! There's a lot to like about this hotel. Being a Gaylord, you can easily spend your entire trip within the confines of the hotel - there are several eateries, stores, and onsite amenities to keep you occupied. Outside the walls though, the location excellent. Unlike its sister resorts in Texas and Nashville, the Gaylord National Harbor is located within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and entertainment in National Harbor. My room was also very spacious and modern - I was on the 14th floor and had a great view looking out towards National Harbor. The convention area was also good - easy to navigate and a comfortable place to be while learning. As far as cons, it's mostly within the context of comparing it to other Gaylords. This is by far the smallest one I have been to, and has less onsite amenities compared to Texas and Nashville. The exchange, though, is having other amenities outside the hotel within walking distance. Going to close this off by giving kudos to the staff - they were great. I had a smooth check-in and my entire stay from a logistics perspective was seamless. Overall, I had a great stay at the Gaylord National Harbor and wouldn't hesitate to return for another conference.

They do have a pool which I didn't realize until my last day. The back has a track for walking and chairs for lounging. Minutes away from National Harbor. It had everything we could've possibly needed. FYI- parking onsite is $50USD. Parking across the street was $25USD. It was in and out parking so it's one standard fee.

My daughter had so much fun with the employees and other kiddos! I opted to sit downstairs which is louder, but there is a quiet work/study space upstairs for additional cost. Before we left I also ordered food to go from Shorty's Deluxe. Childcare and food all in one Highly recommend Mulberry Lane for all the parents!

But Mulberry Lane is a notch above bc not only is it a play cafe but there is staff there to watch your lils while you get to go elsewhere within the building whether that's in the lil tables visibly nearby or in one of their neighboring and partnering restaurants. I'd toootally get my kids memberships if we lived nearby. Since we probably would only go weekends for an hour or two, I'm glad there are the options for one time pay or multi hour passes for future use. Since we weren't sure if we'd be back, we gave it a try for one hour. Prices may change but our first time was $18 per child per hour. This may seem high for only one hour, but my kids had fun and my hour without worrying about them or being interrupted was very productive so it was worth it. Staff are friendly. I only wished they had gluten free options for the kiddos to enjoy after their play. Guess we can bring our own next time! :)

Had some apps, jello shots, beer towers and so much fun I can't believe it wasn't illegal! In fact, we had such a good time, we went back again on Saturday 6/13!

I didn't get a chance to try the food, but everything I saw coming out looked really good. The karaoke room was pretty warm, but I just assumed it was because there were a lot of us in a small space, so it wasn't a big deal. The real problem was when our room time was over and we went into the main area. It was HOT, like, no air at all. And I'm not talking about the Chris Brown and Jordin Sparks song (LOL). It was honestly unbearable. With the heat wave we've been having, there's really no excuse for the AC to be struggling that much. Other than that, we had a great time, and I'd definitely come back. I just hope management sees this and gets the air conditioning fixed because it would make the experience so much better.

It also has large windows overlooking the water as well as outdoor seating. We had our end of year staff celebration here. We had a small buffet of finger goofs that were realy good as well as happy hour drink specials. For a while, we had the space to ourselves but as it got later it got more busy. Eventually security had to monitor the lidt because the ended up being some fighting over it. Staff was ok. They gave conflicting information about their policies. Overall it was an okay experience. I would definitely go again.
