http://grandwashington.hyatt.com/property/index.jhtml ---------- Really well-appointed hotel - 5 minute walk to the new Convention Center. Impressive lobby in a huge atrium with fountains, walkways and a number of bar and restaurant options. Check-in was smooth, no mention of PL...and had no problem getting my check-out extended to 1 PM. I'm not a Hyatt Member, but I was given an 11th floor "Gold Passport" level room (approx. 500 sq.ft) with 2 Queen Beds, large bathroom, minbar and work area. It was a very nice room, but not as well appointed as the Hyatt in Calgary. Wireless High-Speed internet was $10 per day - and is charged directly to your credit card by the wireless company not to the room. The room overlooked the street and there was a lot of traffic noise even on the 11th floor - I would request an "inside" room that overlooks the Atrium instead on my next stay. On the subject of the Atrium, it's huge and may be a problem for anyone with vertigo as some of the elevators have windows out onto the atrium. As mentioned by others, the pool, sauna and fitness facilities are an added cost, so I didn't check them out. Valet parking (with in and out priviliges) was $26 per day. Had two-meals from room service and found them both to be very good - but you are going to pay 4* prices for your cheese burger plus built-in gratuity and delivery fee. All in all, a solid 4* hotel in a great location for Conventions or Business in downtown DC...and I got my total stay - room, valet parking, wirless internet, and two room service meals for about $100 less than the best room-only rate on the Hyatt site. I would be happy stay at this property again if it came up on PL.
