When you are looking for the best Washington DC hotels, the Kimpton Brand has some awesome options. I visiting this Spring and stayed in Hotel Madera located in Washington DC’s Dupont Circle. I found it to be the best hotel for people who don’t really want to stay in a hotel.

What is Dupont Circle?
Washington DC is one of my most favorite cities to visit. And Dupont Circle is one of my favorite neighborhoods to stay in. It is the most fun, eclectic neighborhood in a city full of fun, eclectic neighborhoods. It is glamorous brownstones on Embassy Row and lovely green spaces in the public parks and squares. There is always something to do there, and even better, people to see! Pull up a park bench and get your people watching on!
