What we love about this stay
Ask for a fireplace room on an upper floor — they're not all the same, and the ones with city views transform completely at dusk when you can watch the monuments light up from under a blanket. The Jefferson's real magic lives in Quill, the ground-floor bar that feels more like a well-read friend's study than a hotel lounge. Order the house old fashioned and settle into one of the leather chairs near the back. Mornings, skip the rush and take breakfast in-room — the cooked-to-order eggs arrive on proper china, and eating by a lit fireplace in a bathrobe is the kind of quiet indulgence this place does better than anywhere else in the district. It's a 99-room property, so the staff learns your name fast. Lean into that.

We try to stay at different properties each time we’re in DC. We’ll be hard-pressed to find one that is better than the Jefferson. The rooms sparkled, the staff were incredibly helpful, the amenities were spot-on, and the location was great.

Such a lovely stay. Everyone is extremely friendly and accommodating. The hotel is beautiful. Room was well appointed. It’s the small details that they saw to which made the stay even nicer.

I have worked in Capitol Hill DC for 14 Years and I love every day of it. DC is a unique city with many free musiums and monuments. There are many good restaurants as well. If u are planing a trip to Washington DC give yourself at least two or three days so u can see the musiums, and make sure to catch a play or concert at the Kennedy center for the arts. The Nationals stadium is also a must to catch a good baseball game.
