The Ritz-Carlton, Washington, D.C.
Sophistication in Washington's West End
This West End hotel is Ritz-Carlton at its finest: sophisticated, traditional décor; attentive service; comfortable rooms; and a great location. The wood-paneled lobby is decorated with muted canvas paintings, fresh flowers, elegant chandeliers and parlor-style furniture.
Rooms, which are large by Washington standards, feature down duvets, Frette linens and fully stocked minibars with champagne, wine, liquor, sodas and sweet and savory snacks. In the bathrooms, you’ll find separate showers and soaking tubs; gilded over-the-sink mirrors; marble countertops and tile; and Asprey bath products.

The renewed guest rooms and suites complete the hotel's multi-phase, property-wide renovation that began with the unveiling of the lobby and Quadrant Bar & Lounge, the re-design of its Club Lounge and the completion of its new meeting spaces and 10,500 square foot ballroom.
