The Bar/Lounge at The Dupont Circle

"Handsome, well-appointed rooms are the real highlight, but solid service, a popular local bar scene, excellent Cafe Dupont, and a prime Dupont Circle location complete the substance behind its style"

"Additional on-site facilities include a bar and fitness center"

"So it’s no surprise that the hotel’s Café Dupont brasserie and wood-and-leather Bar Dupont are see-and-be-seen spots for everyone from staffers to diplomats (Embassy Row is just around the corner, too)"

"Called the Level Nine experience, the exclusive top floor acts like a hotel within a hotel with its own private elevator, concierge and lounge"

"All guests checking into Level Nine enjoy access to a beautifully appointed private lounge with all of the expected perks"

"That night, we popped over to U Street for dinner at Estadio, a trendy tapas bar known for its potent cocktails (try the house-made gin and thyme-tonic ) and convivial atmosphere"
