The Hay-Adams: A Landmark Facing the White House

The Hay-Adams is Washington's most storied hotel, an Italian Renaissance landmark of 1928 standing directly across Lafayette Square from the White House, on the site of the homes of statesmen John Hay and Henry Adams. A Leading Hotels of the World Sustainability Leader, it has hosted presidents-elect, heads of state and Washington society for nearly a century, with some of the finest White House views in the city.

The dining befits the address. The light-filled Lafayette Restaurant serves upscale contemporary American cuisine under chef Nicolas Legret; and the legendary below-stairs Off The Record lounge, its walls lined with caricatures of the political elite, is one of the capital's great insider retreats.

For a storied, central Washington stay, The Hay-Adams is a benchmark.
