Built in 1917 across the street from the White House, Hotel Washington was the closest neighbor to the First Family. 317 rooms and services host everyone from presidents to politicians, celebrities to CEOs, socialites to superstars. Because glamour is forever, Hotel Washington's art, music, design, fashion and culture is redefined and revisualized by W Washington D.C., in a tribute to its storied Beaux Arts past, from the sophistication of Sinatra to the charm of Chevalier.
