Three picks · DC

The three best hotel picks in Washington

Marble and monuments. I’m a VIP Platinum member who books twenty-plus trips a year, so instead of forty tabs you get three rates in Washington that are actually worth taking: the cheapest, the smart 3.5-star middle, and the luxury pick. Every rate below is a typical nightly figure, not a live quote.

Where to stay in Washington

The Pod DC Hotel in Chinatown is the value pick, The Dupont Circle Hotel in Dupont Circle is the comfortable middle, and The Jefferson, Washington, DC in Downtown is the one I book for myself. Pick any of them and you finish the reservation with your own card on the booking partner’s site.

Rates shown are typical figures for these properties, not live quotes and not an offer. The live rate for your dates, with taxes and fees, is shown by the partner before you pay. No card details are taken here and there is no booking fee on this site. Room photos are illustrative.
