What is The Watergate Hotel?

This '60s-era hotel near Georgetown has always been a luxury destination in its own right. Now, after a recent restoration from a student of the hotel's original architect, the DC icon is as luxe as ever. Think sleek mid-century modern furniture, an impressive copper lobby that echoes the hotel's curved exterior and sweeping views of the Potomac River. Embracing its history, the renovated Scandal Suite is also available to stay in, complete with news clippings and other themed items from the period.
