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

Travel + Leisure "Situated in Dupont Circle, Hotel Madera is a small Kimpton property that blends contemporary style with an eco-friendly sensibility." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Modern comfort with a stylish twist. This small hotel exudes elegance, sophistication, and power, catering to ladies and gentlemen of classic tastes."
Star Service "Designed for business travelers, this lodging works equally well for tourists. Anyone seeking out a calm midrange refuge near Dupont Circle will find this to be worth considering." Full review
BlackBook "First season pilot to younger sister Hotel Palomar but with the leopard print toned down a smidge."
Zagat3.5
"A "conveniently located" "favorite" just off Dupont Circle, this nonsmoking Kimpton boutique is sought out for its "friendly" vibe."
Frommer's "The Madera fancies itself a kind of ecoconscious pied-à-terre for travelers." Full review

Ask for a back-of-the-house room on floors 6 through 10, where views of Rock Creek Park and the Washington National Cathedral can be seen.
Lonely Planet "Cozy yet cosmopolitan, this hotel is another Kimpton property, the focus here being more of an intimate, small boutique than large funk-da-house hipster haunt." Full review
Gayot "This hotel combines the selling point of convenience with the fact that it is just far enough off the main drag to provide a quiet stay." Full review
Afar Magazine "Just a couple of leafy blocks from always-lively Dupont Circle, the Kimpton-run boutique hotel looks like a 1960s apartment building on the outside." Full review
Fodor's "Tranquil guest rooms at this intimate inn are nicely done with taupe, charcoal, and indigo furnishings, and some are oversized and have balconies." Full review
