"The W wants to blow you away, and it doesn't mess around." Full review
"W imbued the former Hotel Washington... with its modern sensibilities but retained the 1917 Beaux Arts elements."
"It's hard to get a better look at the White House than it is from the exclusive P.O.V. rooftop bar lounge."
"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."
"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
"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."

Upper-middle-range
"This upper-middle-range property is a few blocks from Dupont Circle, one of the city’s most vibrant neighborhoods." Full review

"Go ahead and kiss the furniture, your lipstick blends right in. Bright red beds are gorgeous, albeit suited more for romping then sleeping."
"Rooms are spacious enough to easily accommodate several armchairs and a large ottoman... a huge mirror positioned to reflect the living room-like space, and a 10-foot-long mahogany desk." Full review
"With flamboyant and downright fiery rooms, this kid- and pet-friendly hotel is a haven of comfort."
"Playful city stay just five blocks from the White House, with retro fittings and animal print galore." Full review
"You'll be seeing red and loving it; rooms are a sleek postmodern tribute to the color, from the red platform beds to the red velvet curtains, chicly offset with gray and white accent pieces." Full review
