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."
Zagat3.3
"Praised for its "warm", "funky-chic" atmosphere and "always-welcoming" staffers, this "hip" boutique offers "large", "modern" accommodations."
Lonely Planet "George was the first DC hotel to take the term ‘boutique’ to a daring, ultramodern level." Full review
Gayot "The founding fathers would flip their wigs over this funky modern hotel."
Time Out "The first Kimpton Group property in DC, the George sets the bar high." Full review
Fodor's "Portraits of America's first president by Andy Warhol protégé Steve Kaufman and chic modern furniture adorn public areas and add a pop of bright color to the mostly white public spaces." Full review

"For the most part, the Shoreham is a hulking, fairly bland-looking 834-room convention-focused business hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Adjacent to Rock Creek Park, this grand hotel sits on 11 landscaped acres. A dynamic, luxury hotel that has hosted countless important guests and meetings."
Rough Guide "Plush institution bursting with history and overlooking Rock Creek Park."
Star Service "This convention-oriented hotel may be in an off-center location, but it's the only D.C. hotel with a true resortlike setting, thanks to 11 acres of rolling lawns and thickets flanking Rock Creek Park." Full review
Gayot "After a huge renovation, this facility is one of the city's top luxury chain hotels. It received a full face-lift, from its impressive lobby to the fitness center to each individual room."
BlackBook "At a whopping 834 rooms, not exactly bijou. Still, famous-because-it's-famous hotel is so heavy with history, it's become a "slept there" landmark and convention favorite."
Zagat3.5
""Huge" yet "charming", this "signature" 1930s-era venue on 11 acres is a "busy" conference host that also draws the leisure crowd due to its "super" location near a Metro station."
Travel + Leisure "The four-diamond Omni Shoreham hotel is set apart from the city bustle in the Adams Morgan neighborhood, near both the National Zoo and Rock Creek Park." Full review
Fodor's "This elegant landmark overlooking Rock Creek Park has been lovingly tended and is aging gracefully, still luring guests with light-filled guest rooms." Full review
Jetsetter "Storied DC hotel near Rock Creek Park, with presidential traditions, an American restaurant, an outdoor pool and a spa." Full review
