The Melrose Hotel Washington D.C. - Property information

What to expect: From the marble floor, grand columns, and huge bouquet of fresh flowers in the lobby to the knowledgeable concierge service, this dignified hotel offers a haven from the frenetic pace of Washington deal-making. International travelers appreciate the Melrose's proximity to institutions such as the World Bank, and the hotel's business clientele can be found relaxing in the Library Bar or dining in one of Georgetown's many fine restaurants.
• Amenity highlights: The Melrose underwent a thorough, $10 million renovation in 2001, and it shows. Complimentary daily newspapers add to the homey ambience of all 240 guestrooms. Suites are tastefully appointed with original watercolors showcasing the city's history, as well as down pillow-top mattresses, plush terry robes, and wireless Internet access.

• Insider tip: It's worth asking the concierge about the frequent walking tours of residential Georgetown offered by historical societies and independent tour guides. (Groups should book custom tours in advance.) The walks take visitors past many of Georgetown's historic brick townhouses—including several that were occupied by John and Jacqueline Kennedy at various times in their lives.
