WHY WASHINGTON, DC
Free museums, the Mall at sunrise and hotel spas in Georgetown.
Washington is a gentler city break than its reputation: the Smithsonian for free, Rock Creek Park for running, cherry blossom in spring. Our stays are the grand hotels and boutique spas in Georgetown, Dupont and Penn Quarter.
