Frommer's "Behind a facade of stainless steel, limestone, and glass is one of Washington's hippest places to stay, and it's within easy reach of both the Capitol and Union Station." Full review
Concierge "Right next to Capitol Hill, this Kimpton property was the first hotel to bring cutting-edge design to a very traditional, Federalist city."
DK Eyewitness "One of the most fashionable hotels in the city, deserving attention because of its innovative design, excellent business accommodations... and its fine bistro-style restaurant."
Michelin Guide "George Washington is the father of this country and Hotel George is the father of this, the city's modern hotel scene."
BlackBook "Unabashed Capitol Hill hideaway for the closeted trend fiend, metrosexual lobbyist, fast-paced corporates wearing glasses by Christian Roth."

"Praised for its "warm", "funky-chic" atmosphere and "always-welcoming" staffers, this "hip" boutique offers "large", "modern" accommodations."

Gayot "The founding fathers would flip their wigs over this funky modern hotel."

Concierge "This venerable hotel... has such a good bird's-eye view of the First Mansion that network news divisions often book a room here just for the camera angles."
Insight Guides "If it's good enough for the Obamas, it's good enough for the rest of us. This grand, historic hotel faces the White House and has hosted many a famous face."

"Quite possibly the most famous hotel in the capital, and deservedly so." Full review
Travel + Leisure "One of the city's finest hotels, this rebuilt 19th-century residence also boasts what is arguably the city's best location." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Constructed on the sites of the homes of John Hay and Henry Adams, this elegant hotel features beautifully restored rooms filled with antiques and boasting ornamental ceilings."
Rough Guide "From the gold-leaf and walnut lobby to the sleek modern rooms, the Hay-Adams is one of DC’s finest hotels."
Michelin Guide "With a view of the Executive Mansion from its location across Lafayette Square, the lauded Hay-Adams is closer to the White House than any of the city's grande-dame hotels."
Star Service "The small porte cochere, usually clogged with luxury sedans, leads right into the period, high-ceilinged lobby, where a staff member intercepts all guests. " Full review
Gayot "This establishment was a residential hotel in the 1920s. Today it hosts a clientele that includes pleasure travelers, ambassadors and celebrities."
BlackBook "If you can't be the president, be his neighbor. Immediate prestige is just a slingshot's shot away from the secret service men staring back at you from the White House roof."
