The art deco building dates back to the 1940s, with wooden headboards on every bed keeping the ornate detailing alive and well today.

Hotel restaurant

All-day eatery Lyle’s serves neighborhood locals alongside guests for every meal of the day, including brunch at weekends.

Or you can order more sizable dishes, such as such as fried chicken with Texas toast; 72-hour short rib with Alabama white sauce; rainbow trout with fennel and apricot, or spinach cavatelli. For breakfast, try a buttermilk waffle, smoked salmon on sourdough or a bodega sandwich with spicy mayo and crispy bacon.

Worth getting out of bed for

There are some obvious sights to take in on a visit to the USA’s capital city, but first there’s Dupont Circle right here on your doorstep – this residential neighborhood is home to some of DC’s buzziest hubs, whether you’re in search of indie bookshops, dive bars or full-blown nightclubs. Art lovers should detour to the Phillips Collection, where you’ll find an impressive assortment of Impressionist and modern works in a Georgian Revival building. Magpies will enjoy a rummage around both Eastern Market in the historic Capitol Hill neighborhood and Union Market, which has 360-degree views of the city from its rooftop.

Local restaurants

You may be in the capital of the USA, but that doesn’t mean your tastebuds have to be patriotic – take them to Korea instead with a trip to Anju, here in Dupont Circle. Also on offer in the neighborhood is a detour to the Mediterranean courtesy of Agora, which imports all the flavours of Turkey, Greece and Lebanon, with, naturally, free-flowing raki.

Local bars

If you like your venues to be several things at once, head straight to Alice DC, a concept bar dispensing Vietnamese and Chinese street food, with a psychedelic speakeasy on its first floor and a club with a patio for alfresco partying on the second.

Anonymous review

By Mr & Mrs Smith

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this heritage hotel in the USA and unpacked their star-spangled banners, a full account of their city break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Lyle Washington DC in Dupont Circle…

If you’d rather experience the US capital like a local, Lyle Washington DC is the DMV (or National Capital Region) destination to seek out. The art deco building dates back to the Forties, with its sleek styling perfectly preserved and sun-shaped wooden headboards gracing each bed today as a nostalgic nod to its past. The hotel’s rooms feel more like apartments, with well-stocked minibars and kitchenettes in several of them. Also helping guests feel like they want to stay a while are the communal spaces accommodating digital nomads by day and a buzzy bar on hand for when it’s time to close the laptop. Lyle’s restaurant is a lively neighborhood spot, catering for everything from hearty breakfasts and weekend brunches to dinners of piled-high small plates or more substantial mains. And on your desirable doorstep is the tree-lined residential district of Dupont Circle, home to many of the city’s best bars, restaurants and boutiques.
