Upscale hotel with chic rooms, farm-to-table restaurant, & trendy bar
"Surrounded by embassies and popular with international travelers, this One-Key hotel offers contemporary, urbane interiors with functional comforts—rooms include full-sized work desks and Eames Management chairs—and features an ultra-high-end enclave, Level Nine, a floor of enormous, lavish suites served by its own private elevator." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Sited right on the Dupont Circle roundabout, this long-styled hotel melds recent renovations with a social scene anchored by a Martin Brudnizki–designed restaurant whose coral velvet banquettes, marble tables, and expansive outdoor terrace draw locals and diplomats alike. A walnut-and-brass whiskey bar channels Irish flair, while 327 sleek rooms mostly overlook the circle; penthouse suites refreshed by Clodagh include deep soaking tubs and private terraces. The lobby feels like a high-end apartment, complete with a cozy fireplace and look-through bookcase, and the location puts the capital literally at guests’ doorstep." - Laura Dannen Redman, Nicholas DeRenzo
"Awarded one Michelin key as a property offering a very special stay, this Dupont Circle hotel is acknowledged for design, reliable service and comfort, and a strong local identity within a prominent neighborhood." - Stacey Lastoe
"Other highlights: the Dupont Circle Hotel, one of the only hotels privileged enough to set up in Dupont Circle, with its sophisticated restaurant and a swanky cocktail bar." - The MICHELIN Guide
"Wedged into a crook just off its namesake park, The Dupont Circle gives off warmth from the moment a uniformed bellhop swings open a massive glass door, revealing a low-ceilinged lobby—a remnant of the building’s 1950s origins. It feels like a private members’ club, one that’s confident enough to do its own thing—and one the bold-face names will soon be angling to join. Dupont Circle is an upscale neighborhood with tree- and townhouse-lined streets and a buzzy after-work scene; if you’re into happy hours and oyster specials, you needn’t go far to find one. The hotel is within a nice walk of one end of the National Mall; meander straight past the White House and you’ll soon reach the Washington Monument on your right and the National Museum of African American History and Culture on your left. The space got a remodel from design firm Clodagh and architect Martin Brudnizki and is a real stunner." - Adele Chapin, Laura Ratliff
