8/10 Good
"Lovely hotel in a great location! The rooftop bar/restaurant is an highlight for the views. All of the staff are extremely professional, friendly and helpful. I’m not keen on the resort fee, but I appreciate this has become the norm in the US and this hotel has a better offering than many other hotels. I would definitely stay again."

What is a historic hotel like in Washington?
Guests who choose historic hotels have the opportunity to stay in a building officially recognised with a national historic designation.

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
They are quite similar. The term "historic hotel" is more common in the U.S., whereas "heritage hotel" is common in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasise the architecture and actual building. Heritage hotels draw their meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it inspired the community.
Do historic hotels in Washington have modern facilities?
