What to expect: Entering the Hay-Adams is like stepping back in time to the elegant world of 1920s Washington?although it?s possible that not even presidents had it this good. Amenity highlights: The rich d?cor and personalized service are just the beginning. Each room features custom European bed linens and down pillows, a component audio system, dimmable lighting mounted in a canopy headboard above the bed, and an analog alarm clock that eliminates fussing with the buttons on digital clock radios. Bathrooms contain brass and porcelain fixtures with all-marble walls and floors, designer Etro toiletries, and both fixed and handheld showerheads. Business travelers will appreciate the free high-speed Internet access, as well as the three dual-line telephones in each room with free local, toll-free, and credit card calls. Insider tip: The Hay-Adams is also notable for its fantastic location, tempting guests to explore on foot across Lafayette Square to the White House, then a few blocks beyond to the Washington Monument. From there, the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials beckon to the west and south, while to the east sits the Capitol and the Smithsonian museums lining the Mall. For a taste of Beltway power dining, head a couple of blocks in the opposite direction to one of the old-fashioned steakhouses on or near K Street (such as Prime Rib, 2020 K St NW), where men in dark suits scoff at ?business casual? while closing deals over martinis, crab cakes, and?what else??steak.
