Located on Lafayette Square across from the White House, the Hay-Adams in Washington, D.C., offers accommodations at one of Washington's most prestigious addresses, with views of the White House, Lafayette Square and St.John's Church, the "church of the presidents." Named to the prestigious Institutional Investor 2004 World's Best Hotels list, the Hay-Adams is just minutes from the Smithsonian, the Washington Monument and the Mall.
Built in 1928 and renovated in 2002, this classic hotel takes its name from John Hay, private assistant to President Abraham Lincoln and later secretary of state, and Henry Adams, an acclaimed author and descendant of U.S. Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams. The 145-room hotel features 20 suites, some with views of Lafayette Park and the White House. All guestrooms combine heritage and luxury with contemporary comfort and technology. Guestrooms include ornamental fireplaces, intricately carved plaster ceilings, tailored upholstery, marble bathrooms with brass fixtures, Frette Italian bed linens and exclusive Etro bath amenities. Balconies adorn selected rooms.
Recognized as one of Washington's leading choices for gracious dining and entertainment, the Hay- Adams provides two dining options. The elegant Lafayette Room serves as Washington's destination for power dining and features contemporary American cuisine. Favored by locals for its creative menu and exceptional wine selection, the hotel's Off the Record Bar features plush red booths and walls decorated with caricatures of current political players. The drawings are changed regularly to reflect the ups and downs in Washington's power games.
The Hay-Adams provides four meeting rooms, a private dining room and a rooftop terrace to host groups of up to 150 guests. Beautiful Elizabethan and Tudor motifs complement the Italian Renaissance architecture, creating sophisticated backdrops for formal and informal events.
The hotel allows small pets only. |
