EAT. STAY. SHOP. PLAY. Photo: Capella STAY Capella (photo right) The highest luxury boutique hotel in Georgetown, without a doubt. Excellent bar and restaurant right on the canal. You have access to a personal assistant who can organize after-hours shopping or a private museum tour. Also check out the guests-only rooftop bar with an indoor-outdoor infinity pool. Stunning! 1050 31st Street NW 202.617.2400 The Graham A fun and irreverent hotel in the center of Georgetown. They have a hopping roof top bar where it’s hard to find a seat on nice nights. No restaurant at the hotel, but there are plenty in Georgetown. 1075 Thomas Jefferson Street NW 202.333.6526 Hotel Monaco W Hotel Such a fun, hip and quirky hotel from the Kimpton Group in a former post office building in an excellent location—less than two blocks from the National Portrait Gallery, the Spy Museum and the Verizon Center. Excellent restaurant and huge outdoor lounge, plus very close to many other fabulous restaurants. Pets are welcome, so expect to see dog bowls around the lobby. The W used to be Hotel Washington with the very best rooftop bar in the city with 360-degree views of downtown DC, the Mall and the White House. My husband used to watch fireworks on the terrace every 4th of July. The W has upped the cool factor. There is a JeanGeorges Steakhouse here among other hip options. Starwood’s trademarked Whatever/Whenever service available here. Good for VIP spotting. 700 F Street NW 202.628.7177 515 15th Street NW 202.661.2400 MAY JUNE 2015 91
