In the heart of Washington, DC — a city defined by its iconic monuments — stands a monument to the city itself. With history as the catalyst and balance as the goal, Baskervill collaborated with Westin on an interior and exterior renovation for their downtown DC location. The transformation has given rise to a dramatic façade and inspiring shared spaces where guests can find harmony with a city rich in heritage.

The energy of DC is conveyed through dramatic spaces, high ceilings, and locally-sourced Potomac marble woven throughout the hotel’s interiors. Updates to the public spaces, including the lobby, bar, cafe, and restaurant, combine the old world charm of the building with contemporary updates and amenities. Outside, the exterior commands attention. Grand from afar yet accessible on a human scale, the updated façade epitomizes the enduring allure of the city’s monumental beauty.
