The St. Regis Washington, D.C.
The St. Regis is an intimate hotel that was built in 1926 by a Turkish businessman in the style of an Italian Renaissance Palace; this style is still in evidence in the Lobby with its 18-foot-high with intricate carved wood ceiling.
Location
Its location is ideal for professional travelers, set on the corner of 16th Street and K Street, convenient to the offices of lobbying firms and law firms.
Room
Guest rooms have a traditional interior style but are small. The Superior room we were shown was 350 square feet with a gold and red color scheme. Built-ins created during the 2007 renovation create hanging space, drawer space, and a place for the flat screen television, providing more floor space by eliminating a closet). The bathroom is very small with a single vanity, step-in shower (but no tub), and toilet.
The St. Regis Suite we were shown had the same small bedroom, a slightly larger bathroom, as well as a powder room and exceptionally large living room area with a second large flat screen.
Overall
Two blocks from the White House (and on the same block as the Hay Adams), this hotel does provide a good option for a single business traveler as well as weekend leisure travelers who may be attracted by lower weekend rates. The hotel's restaurant is Adour by Alain Ducasse.
