"The Donovan House is a sleek offering that's helping define Obama-era D.C. cool along with hip counterparts like the W and the Dupont Hotel." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The sleek 139-room Washington, D.C., hotel is all about clean architectural materials such as limestone and dark teakwood paired with unexpected dashes of olive green and deep purple." Full review
BlackBook "DC deemed worthy of Thompson hotels' contemporary inner sanctum. Furniture by NASA floats in mid-air."
Zagat3.7

Frommer's "The W wants to blow you away, and it doesn't mess around." Full review
Concierge "W imbued the former Hotel Washington... with its modern sensibilities but retained the 1917 Beaux Arts elements."
Fodor's "It's hard to get a better look at the White House than it is from the exclusive P.O.V. rooftop bar lounge."
DK Eyewitness "Located next to the White House, many of its rooms have superb views of the White House or the Capitol. Its exceptional service continues in a luxurious setting."
Star Service "In a 10-story Italian Renaissance building with beaux-arts trappings, this is a modern interpretation of the oldest hotel in town, appealing to everyone's inner hipster." Full review
BlackBook "Ye Olde Hotel Washington rises from the ashes with a glaring, tell-all "W" on its brow. Thoughtful redesign plays on former grandiosity with sly, tongue-in-cheek touch."
Zagat3.7
"A "high-class" historic hotel made "fresh" with a "chic", "sleek" design, this "trendy" venue pulls in a "younger" crowd with assets like a "beautiful" rooftop bar offering the "best view in town"."
Gayot "Situated on Fifteenth Street in Washington DC, the W is the closest hotel to the White House grounds."
Travel + Leisure "The W Washington, D.C. Hotel is the place to see the nation's capital." Full review
Fodor's "It's hip, sleek, very cool, and just steps from the White House." Full review
