14 Best Luxury and Boutique Hotels in Washington, D.C. - AFAR
"Overlooking Lafayette Square with direct views of the White House and Washington Monument, this Italian Renaissance–style hotel (constructed in 1927 on the former homes of John Hay and Henry Adams) pairs old-world charm with a reputation for discreet, comprehensive service. The property offers 124 guest rooms and 21 suites facing historic vistas, and a noted basement cocktail lounge—decorated with political cartoons and caricatures—provides a storied spot for drinks." - Laura Dannen Redman, Nicholas DeRenzo
