Vaze,
Other hotels to consider: Mandarin Oriental (new and high-end, but not the greatest location), the Williard (a historic DC classic that hasn't lost its touch), the Hay-Adams (across the street from the White House and quite nice; they also have a nice bar), and The 4 Seasons (never stayed there but it was nice for a meeting and it is on the edge of Georgetown).
Restaurants: In Georgetown near the Ritz and 4 Seasons - Restauante Piccolo (nice Italian place, not too fancy but quite cozy) and Citronnelle. I'm not real good with G-Town so someone else could help out there. Foggy Bottom/Golden Triangle - Vidalia, Kinkades, The Prime Rib, Restaurant Kolumbia and my fave i Ricchi.
