A Luxury Hotel with Lots of DC History
Stayed here for a weekend. The bell staff and parking vallet are very attentive from the moment you pull up. By the time I got them taken care of, my wife already had us checked in. The room was spacious, and the bathroom was small but adequate. The staff was very friendly and helpful, giving us their picks for local places to eat and area attractions. When I asked about a late check out, their reply was, "no problem, how late do you need?" This hotel has been around since the 1930s and has the feel of a cruise ship, without the small passageways and churning of the sea. It has hosted all sorts of people, including several presidents, film stars, baseball teams and even the Beatles (check out the play list written by John Lennon for their concert in DC just after their appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show). I enjoyed being treated like royalty.
