The Hay-Adams
Lafayette Square, Washington, D.C., United States

The Hay-Adams belongs to the city’s historic hotel tradition, with an Italian Renaissance exterior and a discreet, carefully maintained sense of occasion inside. Its Lafayette Square position is a defining attraction, particularly for travellers drawn to the capital’s civic landscape. The Lafayette offers polished dining, while Off The Record adds a more playful political note through its cartoon-lined surroundings. Book for character and location, and choose the room outlook deliberately rather than assuming every category shares the celebrated view.
