Love the Jefferson!

This is such a nice hotel! The hotel staff is excellent! The extra $$ credit provides breakfast for two daily. It seems to be the best use of the credit.

Nice stay at The Jefferson

We enjoyed our long weekend at the Jefferson Hotel our room overlooked 16th St., and the hotel is in close proximity to the metro as well as the White House. Dining at the hotel was lovely, and their weekend brunch is amazing. Especially the omelettes, waffles, and lobster Benedict. Their concierge is very helpful and goes out of his way to make accommodations for you. All around very nice staff. The Quill bar is very nice, and there’s a lovely outdoor seating area to relax and get fresh air whilst dining or having a cocktail.

5 Start & Will Return Soon

Very last minute trip was a huge success. Overall great hotel location, amenities and staff. Concierge was very helpful with setting up dinner reservation and providing options for activities. Every detail of rooms & service are 5-stars. Staff very friendly and helpful as our first visit to DC with a toddler. Can't wait to return soon!

The Jefferson is magnificant.

We spent six nights in the Jefferson Hotel in Washington, DC. Because we were Inspirato members, we were upgraded to a beautiful suite. Breakfast was amazing, the service impeccable and the location was perfect. We were just a 15 minute walk to the White House and many other attractions. Even the weather was great. I can't wait to go back!
