This is not the D.C. of cable-news tickers, political attack ads, and wire-tap scandals; no, at this hotel you’ll step back into a more refined era of American government (whether that really existed or not). Anyone who’s picked up a biography of a Washington power player from the past century has probably encountered a line or two that alludes to the Hay-Adams Hotel or the legendary mansions that stood on the site prior to the construction of the current, 1920s-era Italian Renaissance building. On Lafayette Square across from the White House, this small and luxurious hotel is a relaxing stay and a history lesson in one, the perfect spot for newcomers to D.C. to be literally absorbed in the city’s legacy.
Rooms are decorated in quiet, neutral shades but spare no expense when it comes to comfort. The Lafayette restaurant and Off the Record bar (which features some of the most skilled bartenders in D.C.) are beloved local mainstays. Top of the Hay rooftop space serves as an event venue with sweeping panoramic views of some of the best-known landmarks in the nation’s capital.

This is simply a fantastic hotel -- and the closest to the White House. If you're looking for class in Washington, you've found it.
