Upscale
"Despite its modest 1940s-era exterior, the Dupont Circle Hotel is in the vanguard of modern design among D.C. hotels after a yearlong, top-to-bottom renovation."

Michelin Guide
"A rebranding and extensive renovation of this hotel turned it into a contemporary gem in a can't-be-beat location."
Star Service
"Parked in the midst of D.C.'s most vibrant social scene, it is a scene-stealer in its own right: a midcentury-modern hotel with a theatrical aesthetic that disguises its Irish roots."

"Part of the Doyle group, this spot is chic and glamorous, in a more contemporary and sleek fashion than the embassy row it sits near."

"Go ahead and kiss the furniture, your lipstick blends right in. Bright red beds are gorgeous, albeit suited more for romping then sleeping."
