Washington and related destinations

Between the Lincoln Memorial and the Capitol, the National Mall unfolds like America's front yard, where museums offer everything from moon rocks to Monets for free. The White House tour requires advance planning, but anyone can snap photos from Lafayette Square. Cherry blossoms frame the Tidal Basin each spring, creating a pink canopy that locals celebrate like visiting celebrities. Beyond monuments, neighborhoods like Adams Morgan serve Ethiopian feasts and late-night jumbo slices, while U Street's historic jazz clubs still swing nightly. For a perfect evening, catch a sunset from the steps of the Jefferson Memorial, then wander to a Georgetown patio where political gossip flows as freely as the cocktails.

"Fantastic location. We had two queen beds and a sofa bed. Two adults and two teenage boys. The room was spotless and the beds were very comfortable. Only grumble would be the sofa bed mattress that was poor. The housekeeper kept the room immaculate and front desk staff were very helpful. The breakfast was very basic, but coffee on tap which was a plus. For the price it’s very affordable for a family touring the city."
