In the heart of Washington’s downtown area, a five minute walk to the Smithsonian, the Obelisk and many of the city’s memorials, this designer hotel suits guests looking for a very modern, cool and trendy atmosphere. The décor is bright with lot of lighting and colorful details, and DJs liven the lobby on weekdays. The clientele is young, hip, and stylish and loves to have fun! We found the Standard rooms could be a little larger, so we recommend you try one of the uniquely named suites, like the Wow or the Fantastic, for a little excitement and more space. Do request a view of the Obelisk while you are at it. The wooden floors, beautiful carpets and wallpaper, large pillows and fluffy duvets will provide an appeasing respite after enjoying the vibe downstairs.
