Wow. A really nice hotel, with a decent restaurant, and one of the most awful, atrocious bars in Washington, D.C. First the bad news: unless you are overtly, obnoxiously gay or you are in a group with someone who knows the bartender, AVOID THE BAR HERE AT ALL COSTS! You will not be served, not even waited on! There is no way to sugar coat this. This bar DOES NOT WANT YOUR BUSINESS and will not serve you unless you "fit the profile." That is too bad, as the restaurant here is good, solid, offers nice wines and French-style meals, and good service. The hotel operation is solid, with nice-sized rooms, modern appointments, very comfortable beds and baths, and a very fine, European chic decor. Front desk staff is competent, hotel is quiet, very accessible to the whole town from nearby Metro, etc. Really one of the better boutique hotels in town, if NOT for the horrible bar experience.
