The Ritz-Carlton Georgetown | Washington, D.C

Although today it leads a rather different life, The Ritz-Carlton in Georgetown, Washington, D.C host building was once the district’s incinerator, clearly reflected in the smokestack soaring 130ft into the sky, as well as exposed redbrick walls and black iron window frames.

This industrial heritage gives the hotel an edgy look, though high-quality interiors, state-of-the-art facilities and immaculate service make it what it is today: the exquisite Ritz-Carlton Georgetown hotel.

The rooms are quintessentially Ritz-Carlton: all cream palettes accented with dark wood, polished bathrooms and modern amenities combining to make your stay here seamless. There’s a fantastic range of suites, but also special Wellness Rooms that are found close to the spa and come with treats such as air purifiers, yoga mats, bath salts and more.

The hotel spa itself is a sanctuary, offering soothing therapies and access to the steam room, sauna and relaxation room; plus, there’s a fitness centre open 24-hours a day that’s ideal for gym bunnies.

When it comes to dining, The Ritz-Carlton Georgetown, Washington, D.C sports a restaurant serving delicious fare for breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as the trendy Living Room whose highlights include a wood-burning fireplace and ‘late eats’ menu.
