The Hotel George

The Hotel George, a modernist boutique property located in Washington, D.C., is located one block from Union Station, three blocks from the Capitol, and four blocks from the National Mall. The Smithsonian Castle stands seven blocks from this property.

A stainless-steel canopy reminiscent of a theater marquee marks the entrance to The Hotel George. The two-story lobby is a light-filled space with cherry-red area rugs, fossilized coral walls and pillars, and cobalt-blue curved couches. Louis Poulsen's "artichoke" chandelier suspends near the hotel entryway. Fresh flowers are displayed on a chrome-and-glass table. Two circular mirrors flank the entry to the Gallery, a two-story interior courtyard located just beyond the lobby. Presiding over the Gallery is "George," a pop portrait of America's first president crafted by Andy Warhol protégé Steve Kaufman. The hotel's popular dining venue, Bistro Bis, prepares creative French-inspired dishes during breakfast, lunch and dinner hours.

A complimentary, 24-hour fitness facility houses steam rooms, television-mounted cardiovascular equipment, weight-training machines, medicine balls and free weights. Yoga mats and yoga DVDs are available.

The eight-story Hotel George offers 139 guestrooms decorated with granite-topped desks, circular wall mirrors, leather chairs and ottomans. The hotel's signature portrait of George Washington hangs over each bed. Beds are dressed with 300-thread count Egyptian linens and pillowtop mattresses. Stereo/CD players include selections of nature sounds. Folding cherry-wood doors open to reveal flat-panel televisions, stocked minibars, and built-in drawers. Marble bathrooms are stocked with L'Occitane toiletries and feature curved granite countertops, magnifying mirrors, terry-cloth robes, telephones and television speakers. High-speed wired and wireless Internet access is complimentary.

This property participates in the Kimpton green initiatives that feature recycling bins in all rooms, organic coffee, water-efficient bathrooms, and the use of non-toxic cleaning products.
