Frommer's Review
With its room count of 888, the Grand Hyatt is the largest hotel near the convention center, 3 blocks away. The hotel lies between Capitol Hill and the White House, 2 blocks from the Verizon Center.
Guest rooms are average size, measuring 325 square feet, and feature a contemporary look of dark hardwood furniture and hues of brown and gold. Rooms with interior views overlook the hotel atrium; otherwise, rooms offer city views. Every guest room has a "Grand Bed," a 13-inch-thick pillowtop mattress, triple-sheeted and covered with a fluffy white duvet instead of a bedspread. The Regency Club (12th) floor is the VIP level; guests here pay an extra $60 for premium services, including access to the fitness and health club and to the 12th-floor lounge, where food and beverages are available. The fitness club is state-of-the-art, offering cardio and weight equipment; spa treatment rooms; Pilates, yoga, and aerobics classes; and massages. With total fitness in mind, this hotel is entirely smoke free, including its guest rooms. The hotel participates in a recycling program and offers guests the option of re-using linens and towels during stays of more than a day.
Facilities:
4 restaurants, 2 bars, Starbucks; concierge; executive-level rooms; health club, lap pool, steam and sauna rooms, aerobics, and spa (hotel guests pay $10 per room per day for club use); room service

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
