The Hotel George Review

We cannot tell a lie—D.C.'s first contemporary boutique hotel is still one of its best; more than a decade after it first burst on to the scene, Hotel George still excels at providing a fun and funky alternative to the cookie-cutter chains. Portraits of America's first president by Andy Warhol protégé Steve Kaufman adorn public areas and add a pop of bright color to the mostly white public spaces. Guest rooms, done in cream and beige with cobalt-blue accents, have 300-count Egyptian cotton linens, marble-topped ergonomic desks, and expansive flat-screen TVs. Popular restaurant Bistro Bis is known for its contemporary French cuisine as well as its people-watching.

    A party of 6 (4 rooms)stayed here for 3 nights in early Dec. Everything was great; the staff friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious with extremely comfortable beds. Convenient location across from Union Station. Would not hesitate to recommend.
