Frommer's "An especially lovely place to stay the night (and especially expensive: Its rates may be the highest in town)." Full review
Concierge "It's still the province of visiting heads of state, diplomats, and lobbyists, and an air of decorum prevails."

"Its premier restaurant, 24-hour butler service, and spacious, high-tech rooms place it among the city's elite." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Calvin Coolidge took part in the 1926 opening of this grand hotel, styled after a Renaissance palace and appointed with antiques, chandeliers, and fine tapestries."
Michelin Guide "The landmark St. Regis looms over Washington's thriving business district with an air of distinction."
Star Service "The staff too is professional if somewhat cool, and as emotionally detached as the Secret Service agents who shadow some of the guests staying here." Full review

Avoid rooms facing the Crystal Terrace, as it is often raucous with functions and parties.
Gayot "From the arched doorway facade to the Oriental carpets and dangling chandeliers of the impressive lobby, this hotel... is all about elegance."
BlackBook "Queenly residence for visiting heads of state, pocket-heavy Europeans and America's aging glitterati."
Zagat4.0
"Smitten supporters of this circa-1926 grande dame tout its "superb" location, just two blocks from the White House, and maintain that guests are in for a "luxurious", "peaceful" stay."

"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
