Washington DC, United States

The Dupont Circle

An Insider's Take
'This historic boutique gem sits at the heart of DC's most vibrant neighborhood, where embassy elegance meets local charm in perfect harmony.' What's Special? Built in 1924, The Dupont Circle occupies a prime corner location overlooking the iconic Dupont Circle fountain and park. The hotel's intimate 327 rooms blend classic Washington sophistication with modern amenities, while the famous Dupont Circle neighborhood buzzes with over 40 embassies, world-class galleries, and the city's best sidewalk cafes.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Request a room facing the circle for stunning views of the morning joggers and evening fountain light show - it's like having a front-row seat to DC's daily theater.
Don't Miss The Phillips Collection (America's first modern art museum) is just a 3-minute walk away, and the hotel's location puts you within stumbling distance of DC's legendary nightlife along Connecticut Avenue. The Sunday farmers market in the circle offers the best local produce and artisan treats.
