Item Description
As capital cities go, Washington, D.C. is one of the very best. George Washington himself was responsible for the design of the city; it was he who hired the French architect Pierre Charles L?Enfant to create its physical layout. Washington is a city built on hills, and L?Enfant chose the two highest for the location of two of the most important buildings. Jenkins Hill became the site of what L?Enfant referred to as ?the Congress House? and a mile and a half away, he located the ?President?s Palace? ? the White House. There?s no shortage of great places to visit ? the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial, the Vietnam Memorial, the Smithsonian and the National Gallery are among the best.
On the subject of the best, there are four Ritz-Carltons in the Washington area. Located right in the city, The Ritz-Carlton, Washington, D.C. is known locally for having one of the best restaurants in Washington, The Grill. The Ritz-Carlton, Georgetown is located in the fashionable Georgetown district. The Ritz-Carlton, Tyson?s Corner is Northern Virginia?s best address. Each of the three is a AAA Five-Diamond hotel. Just across the Potomac in Virginia, The Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City recently underwent an extensive renovation, making it even grander than it has been. No matter which Ritz-Carlton you choose, you?re in for a rare treat.
Your stay includes daily complimentary breakfast for two, all applicable room taxes and travel for 2 in Coach Class on American Airlines or United Airlines.
