The Jefferson Hotel - A 5-star historic landmark with Thomas Jefferson-inspired design, award-winning dining, and residential fitness center
Located in Embassy Row, The Jefferson stands as a meticulously renovated 1923 Beaux-Arts building featuring a luxurious library lounge and stylish cocktail bar. This 5-star Washington hotel incorporates design elements inspired by Thomas Jefferson's Monticello estate, including spa treatments using herbs from Monticello's gardens. The property offers three distinct dining venues, including The Greenhouse restaurant with its historic skylight and seasonal menus. Guest amenities include a residential fitness center with Pelotons, ellipticals, treadmills, and TRX equipment, plus access to the University Club's pool. An in-house historian assists families with activity planning and Jefferson-related inquiries. The Jefferson Hotel provides 24-hour butler service and features custom-scented bath accessories in its marble bathrooms. Situated three blocks from the White House, it's a 10-minute walk to Dupont Circle's restaurants and shops.

Three Juliet balconies in top-floor suites offer city views
In-house historian available for personalized tour planning
Dog-friendly accommodations with special amenities including beds and treats

“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.”
