“Deluxe historical hotel in the heart of the city. Decor maintains the feel of its opening nearly 200 years ago; think chandeliers, soaring ceilings & endless palm-fringed hallways — suites are incredible. A brasserie, cafe & iconic bar offer plenty of buzzy dining options. Grand Dame of Washington.”
