The Washington Terrace opened Fall 2002 and is infused with the notion of bringing the outside in with rich mineral colors of the earth, vibrant blues of the sea and delicious spice flavors such as paprika, mustard and lavender.

Just as a perfectly balanced Zen garden will contain the five elements of nature, so do the 220 oversized guestrooms. Along with the luminescent light and natural fibers of the sheets - metal, wood, glass and ceramic accessories were specially selected to transport your senses to another world. 39 Deluxe Suites carry on this theme of an imaginary world imbued with color, playfulness and downright comfort.

Located just three blocks from trendy Dupont Circle and equal distance to the opening night and main event parties, this upscale boutique hotel with it's full service destination restaurant, Universal gym and edgy lounge will be the place to be seen during the weekend.
