"The luxe hotel near the White House offers opulent holiday afternoon tea service with selections from Dammann Frères, tea sandwiches, festive desserts, pastries, and optional Champagne pairings. The grand lobby also houses a life-size gingerbread masterpiece decked out with royal icing filigree, ornate candies, and glittering sugar and spice. A new holiday “cheers” bubbly brunch cart fueled by Champagne house Piper-Heidsieck is equipped with cocktails, iconic bruts, and rare vintages alongside seasonal cuisines and desserts." - Vinciane Ngomsi
