Luxury Holidays At The Ritz-Carlton, Georgetown

A distinctive, boutique-style hotel set in a quiet historic district, The Ritz-Carlton Georgetown is a cosy haven from which to immerse yourself in the fascinating early-American heritage of Washington DC. Housed in a converted industrial building, complete with a soaring brick smokestack, the hotel harks back to the region’s industrial past. Indeed, nearby, you will also find the neighbourhood of Foggy Bottom, birthplace of George Washington, along with the must-see monuments of the United States Government Offices and nationally treasured museums and galleries.

Inside, the plush decor glamorously contrasts with the industrial architecture, capturing both the historical value of the area, and its modern reputation as a fashionable east coast hub. Bare brick walls combine with jewel-toned furnishings at the sumptuous Living Room cocktail bar, where evenings can be spent by the crackling fireplace, and rooms and suites all boast oversized floor-to-ceiling windows for a bright and airy finish. In addition to a premier spa and a delectable restaurant serving New American cuisine, the Ritz-Carlton Georgetown maintains a position as one of the area’s most desired hotels.

Climate

Whilst Washington D.C.'s weather is very changeable you can generally expect summers to get hot but on the plus side, the city is less crowded at this time and there’s a host of outdoor concerts, parades and festivals to enjoy. Spring is probably the best time to visit, as this is traditionally when the city’s famous cherry trees are in blossom - in 1912, the people of Japan sent some three thousand cherry trees to the United States as a gift - the first two cherry trees were planted on the northern bank of the Tidal Basin and are still standing, to this day.

Monuments and Memorials

National Mall holds many of the great monuments found within the city and are situated within walking distance of each other. To the Mall’s west end sits Lincoln Memorial, overlooking the beautiful Reflecting Pool and housed in a Neo Classical, Doric-columned, structure. It was also the spot where Martin Luther King Jr gave his distinguished “I have a Dream” speech (look for the engraving on the step on which he stood). Martin Luther King Jr Monument is also fascinating and thought provoking – opened in 2011, it is also the newest. Looming overhead is the hard-to-miss Washington Monument – standing at 555ft, it is the tallest building in the district.

Monuments and Memorials
Museums

With such a superb collection of Washington’s museums located along National Mall, their convenience allows tourists to visit many museums in a shot space of time. There is nothing quite like the Smithsonian institution, a collection of 19 fascinating, artefact-rich museums. Along the Mall you will find, The National Air and Space Museum, National Museum of Natural History, National Museum of American History and Freer Sackler Museum of Asian Art – each one is free to visit!

Museums
The Three Houses of Government

Visit the three pillars that make up the US government, comprising the White House, Congress and the Supreme Court, for an excellent insight into how US politics is performed. Discover where the country’s laws are written with a complimentary tour of the US Capitol Building or you can obtain tickets for a public tour of the White House, where you will see several rooms in the main residence and the halls of which 45 presidents have graced. The Supreme Court is the highest court in the USA, housed in an impressive pseudo-Greek style structure. Visit the permanent exhibits and the building’s staggering, five-storey, marble and bronze spiral staircase. When court is not in session, you can hear fascinating lectures in the courtroom.

The Three Houses of Government
Washington National Cathedral

The striking Washington National Cathedral is run by the Episcopal diocese, but is open to all faiths and creeds. It is the second largest church in the US and the fourth-tallest structure in Washington, boasting a Neo-Gothic design that is modelled on English Gothic style of the late 14th century. Following a President’s inauguration they attend a multi-faith service here. State funerals are also held inside and it was where Martin Luther King Jr gave his last Sunday sermon. Construction began in 1907, when Teddy Roosevelt laid the cornerstone, and it took a staggering 82 years to build.

Washington National Cathedral
National Gallery of Art

The National Gallery of Art boasts a super collection that spans from the Middle Ages to the present. The Neo Classical West Building includes majestic pieces of European art from the early 1900s, such as a da Vinci painting and Impressionist and Post Impressionist pieces that are sure to delight. The contrasting modern East Building, designed by I.M. Pei, displays modern and contemporary art, with notable names on display such as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Jackson Pollock.
