We loved our stay at The Waldorf Astoria. The staff was very helpful at every turn. DeAndre was the first person we met at the front desk and he gave us great suggestions on places to go. We only stayed a night, but we’d definitely stay again. Valet was helpful and polite and we felt at home. The Brass Tack restaurant located in the hotel was also excellent. The Smash Burger is one of the best burgers I’ve ever had in my life. Robert, the waiter was also great. Almost perfect outside of the temperature in the room. We had the fireplace on and tried to max out the thermostat, but we really didn’t get much heat until the next day. We just bundled up under the covers, but that was a minor inconvenience. It was a great stay. Of course a few weird looks from other guests, but we felt the hospitality from the entire staff. We’ll be back for sure!

The valet, Jesus, made our time there so enjoyable and went out of his way to help us. We will definitely be coming back!
