The Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City

5/5

I read a lot of the reviews and the few that are complaining the most have very little actual reviews and the reviews they do have are all negative-keep that in mind when you’re reading. We stayed this week with a group for a burial at Arlington. Location was perfect. The view was hard in some areas but it was still stunning. On arrival valet was very professional and the bellman (Kevin) was prompt. We tipped both well. The gentleman at check in was curt and rude but I didn’t let him ruin the experience. The room itself was small but very clean and well kept. The finishes were expected. It is a $300 room-and honestly that’s a deal considering you are right across the street from the pentagon and Arlington…yall this is a great deal. We’ve paid much higher in large cities with less to speak of. Pay the price. Let me tell you what is worth the money. The club level experience!! Spend that money. We were on the 18th floor and the food was an experience. The concierge in the lounge was impeccable. Professional. Attentive. And anticipated things. It’s magic what they produce out of that tiny little room of their kitchen! All day long there is something to eat up there…I was remarkably surprised at the depth of food for breakfast, lunch and appetizers! Adult beverages were served -and again…I was shocked at the depth of choices in that tiny space. We did have a reception after the burial and it was also great. The desserts were like tiny works of art. The blasts of flavor in every bite. Solomon was our check out bellman and he was the cherry at the end of the trip. The only rude staff we ran into was the check in fella and honestly…on the “importance of the trip” I give him a 1. Pay the money for the club level. You won’t regret it.
