I really enjoyed the historical building that the Riggs Hotel is in. I also enjoyed the bar downstairs in the bank vault. Everything was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The food at the restaurant was very good also. The only thing that I would say I didn’t like is that I was promised drink tickets upon check-in and I did not receive any. The location of the hotel is also very nice because it is located near a lot of landmarks and museums.

We were there on a weekend and the whole place was rented out for weddings. Closed half the elevators to normal guests and closed the main bars to normal guests for some time. Very disruptive. We won’t come back on a weekend.
