Located on the edge of Georgetown, the Melrose Hotel sits close to the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and near the city's best shopping and dining locations. Guests can travel between historical and cultural attractions and key business locations by taxi, Metro light rail or even on foot. Recreational enthusiasts and outdoor adventure seekers will enjoy Rock Creek Park, an 1,800-acre urban oasis complete with hiking, biking, skating and horseback-riding trails; 18-hole golf course; and tennis courts. Every day at the Kennedy Center, guests can take in free performances of French folk dancers, jazz quintets, children's choirs or storytellers, then enjoy drinks on a terrace framed by 60-foot windows or dine in the rooftop restaurants.
Upon entering the Melrose, guests are greeted by an elegant lobby, with its marble floor, grand columns and fresh flowers. Guest can enjoy eclectic American cuisine at the hotel's Landmark Restaurant and then surf the 'Net via wireless access from anywhere in the building. In the Library Bar, patrons can kick back to jazz and outdoor seating on warm nights.
The Melrose's 240 traditionally furnished feature splashes of blues, creams and jewel tones, 24-hour room service, wireless and high-speed Internet access, plush terry robes, British Gilchrist & Soames designer toiletries, and watercolor renderings commissioned for the hotel of the city's famed attractions.
Visitors flying here are seven miles and 30 miles respectfully from Reagan National and Dulles International airports. The Melrose Hotel offers leisure and business visitors an oasis in the middle of one of the world's fastest paced cities. During the week, corporate types stay here to attend meetings or seminars, and leisure travelers for the hotel's proximity to the trendy Foggy Bottom neighborhood and Georgetown's shops, cafes and historical sites.
