"The rooms are graciously appointed, in traditional world charm with super comfortable beds and the custom toiletries are the best."
"They also had little stools that ladies could use for their purses/bags, which I thought was both adorable and ingenious."
"Once we arrived back that evening, we noticed that chocolate covered strawberries (that we didn't ask for) and a card from the hotel congratulating us for our Anniversary had been placed atop the mini bar."

“I'm impressed by its dedication to luxury, notably the Michelin-starred restaurant, The Plume, and rooms inspired by Thomas Jefferson's era. The personalized service, including thoughtful turn-down amenities, aims to make every stay special. While some experiences appear inconsistent, the ambition to provide a high-end, historic experience near the White House shines through.”
