What guests think

Across hundreds of reviews, The Watermark Hotel is praised for spacious, modern rooms, friendly staff, and a convenient Tysons location beside the Metro and Wegmans, plus lively rooftop amenities like The Perch with games, music, and city views.

Common drawbacks include paid and confusing parking and lobby access, occasional slow or out of service elevators, and some reports of loud HVAC, low water pressure, or unsupportive pillows. On-site dining draws strong reviews, with many praising the included breakfast and Wren, though a few found items bland or limited. Suites often have kitchenettes but several reviewers said they lack dishes or utensils, and room service is not offered. Expect an upscale, activity rich stay if you can navigate the parking and elevators.

The location and rooms are fantastic. It's a fun, lively, sexy hotel. My only complaint is that it needs better signage to guide guests to the lobby. The lobby is located on the 11th floor, but once I got up there I had no idea where to go. Finally, someone recognized that I was lost and so they guided me to what they thought was the door led to the lobby. They were not 100% sure either! This is extra frustrating when it is late and you are wheeling luggage around.

The wife and I went for a stay-cation in April (2025). Parking in the garage was easy, and it was safe and clean. Check-in was smooth and seamless. Elevator wait time was short. Our room was amazing!!! We loved the room, the size, the cleanliness and location.

My husband and I travel often to see out children who live in 3 different cities. We stay in a lot of hotels. This is by far the nicest property we have ever stayed in. The rooms (we stayed in a junior suite) were reasonably priced, well-appointed, spacious, comfortable, and clean. The fitness room was wonderful in that there were many machines to use, treadmills, a Peleton, eliptical and recumbant bikes as well as weights and weight machines. The breakfast was plentiful with VERY friendly staff. We drive an EV and there were ChargePoint chargers in the garage. Check out is late which is also wonderful. Most importantly to us is we travel with 2 services dogs. There is a LARGE grassy area and dog park for them. The Perch they call is way more than a perch: it has a putting green, food truck area, tables and lovely landscaping all over. I can't say enough nice things about this property. Thank you for a lovely stay!!

The Watermark Hotel was phenomenal! My room was gorgeous, clean and extremely spacious with amazing views of the Tyson‘s area and beyond. The balcony was huge and I thoroughly enjoyed being out there, especially during the evening time where an amazing breeze could be felt. It was quiet and relaxing as well. It made my “me time” all the more enjoyable! My only complaint would be that the elevators take forever, but other than that I will absolutely be back!

We were a group of 7 in 3 rooms/suites. All the rooms were very nice, spacious and modern. The property was excellent. A rooftop area with food trucks, play area and a bar. The included breakfast was delicious with plenty of options. One strange thing happened though. Late on Saturday night, 3 of us were sitting in the lobby talking.... at around 12:30am, a security guard walks up and says we need to leave because the lobby is closed. What??? Never heard of a hotel lobby being "Closed" at night. Other than that, we liked the hotel.

Ive stayed at this hotel a couple times now. And this previous time i stayed the shower was dirty and covered in hair. I cut my foot on broken glass on the balcony and soup scum all over the shower hose. I killed 2 spiders also. I took my situation down stairs and asked for them to take care of the situation while i left for a couple hours. I ended up asking for a discount to stay and extra night (like i said i enjoy this hotel). They agreed. I left for couple hours and come back to the room being clean (as in bed made and new towels) BUT NONE OF THE STUFF I COMPLAINED ABOUT WAS. The hair still all in the shower floor and walls. Never even touched. Have pictures with times. The glass never touched have pictures and times for that also. So not only did i pay for an extra night trusting they would take care of it like promised and never was.

I had to switch 3 times to finally find the comfort I was accustomed to coming to The Watermark Hotel. It is my child favorite spot so we hope they fix all the broken furniture and ripped couches and the musty smell. The experience was bad but we made the best of it since we were already there.

This hotel exceeded our expectations. It was our first time traveling to the Washington area, and the location is very convenient. It was only a short drive away from all of the places that we wanted to visit. The Breakfast Buffet was by far the best hotel breakfast I’ve had! It had plenty of options and everything was extremely clean, which made the experience great! The room and bathroom were perfect. Everything had a very luxurious feel. I would 100% recommend Watermark Hotel.

Breakfast was fantastic, the room was very well appointed, we liked how many outlets were available throughout, the shower was nice and large size, the only things that were a bit frustrating were finding the correct parking garage for the hotel (we initially were in the Wegman's parking lot unknowingly) and the pillows on the bed were pretty awful. Some of the worst pillows we've ever had, and not an exaggeration. They were extremely flat and floppy and provided no support.

Our room was near the elevators and there was a sound that went all-night long, almost sounded like a metal cable getting stretched. It happened every few minutes all night and day. During the daytime it didn't really bother us, but the popping/stretching sound while trying to fall asleep was quite annoying.

The room was lovely, though I was unable to access internet from it, which cost me time, stress, and credibility with an important business client. The $25/day parking fee could be more flexible and articulated. These factors will likely prevent me from using this hotel again.

The Watermark is an excellent hotel. My problem was with Expedia. It took an hour to check in because Expedia claimed I cancelled my reservation, which I did not. And my money wasn’t refunded. After much work on the hotel managers point, it was finally straightened out. I won’t use Expedia again.

We were four people and had booked 2 rooms. 3 in the party were senior citizens. We were arriving from out of the country and getting the bags to the lobby to check in was a nightmare. The front desk staff offered NO help and was rudely matter of fact about the lack of service. It was a HORRIBLE experience and will definitely not recommend to anyone.

Excellent for Tysons and DC access—steps from the Metro, Capital One Hall, shopping, and dining, with Wegmans in the building. Some guests found signage and the path from the garage to the lobby confusing.

Great value including the weekend package. Easy access to restaurants in the area and expressways, plus walkable to The Metro for ease getting into DC. Was not a big fan of The Wren menu but others in our group were. Breakfast offerings were fresh and hot, and the buffet and seating area were both well maintained considering the number of people cycling through each morning.

I recently stayed one night at the Watermark Hotel near Tysons Corner and had a wonderful experience. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Parking was easy and convenient. The breakfast exceeded my expectations, offering a variety of fresh and delicious options. There were plenty of entertainment choices nearby, and having a Wegmans right on the first floor was a fantastic bonus. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others visiting the area.

Very good experience even for a hotel snob like myself. Agree with another Reviewer, not the same level of service as a 5 star, but an overall good stay. Very nice, spacious clean room with a great view. The hotel smelled really nice as well. Would be better if room service was offered, but there’s a refrigerator and microwave. The buffet food was average, but there were great attendants keeping everything stocked. It was very busy with kids attempting to self serve and parents not controlling them at all. Parking rates of $25 per night is also a bit pricey. We would stay there again.

Very nice, modern hotel. The room was spotless. Great free breakfast. Short walk to Metro. "The Perch" mini golf and biergarten with live music was fun though crowded (Saturday night). The only minor issue we had was the day after the first night, the cleaning staff never came to freshen up or replenish supplies. We called the front desk and they brought more coffee and hot cups. Pillows and shower water pressure could have been better, but overall we had a great experience and would stay there again.

The best hotel I have ever stayed in. From the service to the room, to the food. 10/10. The standard king room is huge! I love that breakfast is included and runs late. The restaurant inside was absolutely delicious. The Bao buns were so good I ordered a second round. The decor is immaculate. Everything is clean and insanely well kept. It is right off a metro line, so very easy access to get around. Wegmans grocer is below for any late night needs (most of which can be fulfilled by the shop in the lobby). I think this will be the only hotel l stay at when I visit the area. It was everything and more. Also, parking is included in the price of your stay!
