I think it's the Blue Duck Tavern, have eaten there on several occasions. Unlike what others say, my experience with it was variable. Food is fine though.

For me Four Seasons and Hay-Adams are vastly superior to the other hotels in town. Capella may also be at the same level, but I have not stayed there so cannot comment on it.
I would rather stay in a room at the above hotels than in a standard suite at PH, MO, or the R-C properties.
One does not need to stay at PH or MO to dine at their very good restaurants, visiting once for dinner will do.

I am a big fan of the Capella. It has a feel unlike any of the other luxury hotels in DC. Assuming you'll want to go out in the evening, you may find the Georgetown location a strength.
