The Hay-Adams is truly exceptional. The location couldn’t be more convenient—right across from the White House, with many key attractions within walking distance. The staff was warm, professional, and consistently accommodating, making our stay feel effortless. One of the highlights was the speakeasy-style bar downstairs—intimate, stylish, and perfect for a nightcap. This hotel blends historic charm with refined luxury. Highly recommend.
