If you’re looking for contemporary indulgence in the US capital, you’ll find it at Viceroy Washington DC. This sleek luxury lodging is just steps from the boutiques, bars, restaurants and galleries of 14th Street. Landmarks such as The White House, Dupont and Logan circles, U Street, and the Convention Centre are easily accessible by foot, but should you wish to explore further afield, there’s a Metro station just 10 minutes from the hotel.

Spacious rooms and suites are designed to calm the senses and provide a little slice of peace and quiet among the hustle and bustle of the city. Start your day with a coffee on the open-air patio at BPM Coffee & Wine. Explore the hotel’s very own gallery, The Salon, which hosts works from local artists, or admire the city from above in the rooftop pool and penthouse deck (open seasonally), designed for days lounging in the sun.
