"The Hotel Du Pont originally opened in 1913, but was renovated in 2018 to refresh the building and create luxury accommodations. The biggest draw of the hotel is Le Cavalier, the restaurant downstairs that offers some of the best French food in the region, but the hotel itself is pretty perfect for romantic getaways.

"You'll get a heady dose of old school glamour at Wilmington's Hotel du Pont, housed in a 12-story Italian Renaissance building from 1913. Ascend the grand double staircase to take a long soak in your oversized bathroom, then drop in for a pre-Opera dinner at the oak-paneled Green Room."
"A few blocks away, grand dame Hotel Du Pont reopened its outdated Green Room as brasserie Le Cavalier in late 2020."
"Provides 29 percent off nightly rates for stays in 2020 plus a $29 credit each night for bookings made on or before February 29."
"Chef Tyler Akin, known in Philly for Stock and Res Ipsa Cafe, is heading back home to Wilmington, Delaware, to take over the restaurant at the historic Hotel du Pont. The ornate Green Room will close on New Year’s Day and reopen in the spring as a French brasserie with Akin at the helm." - Rachel Vigoda
