The Mayflower Hotel, Autograph Collection
The Mayflower, Autograph Collection is one of the capital’s most celebrated addresses, known fondly as the Grande Dame of Washington and famously dubbed the city’s second best address by President Harry Truman. Having opened its doors in 1925 and recently marking its centennial years, it was described as the golden age of hotel construction, the ten-story Beaux-Arts building a masterpiece of grandeur and elaborate detailing, its lavish lobby adorned with 23-karat gilding, the most gold leaf in any public space in Washington after the Library of Congress.
The hotel comprises approximately 581 rooms and suites and has long attracted foreign dignitaries, heads of state and Hollywood royalty. Facilities includea a 24-hour gym, and its own curated DC walking tour. The hotel’s signature dining destination Edgar Bar & Kitchen pays homage to the capital’s great power players through modern brasserie-style cuisine, cocktails and a seen-to-be-seen atmosphere, its name a tribute to J. Edgar Hoover, who dined at the hotel for over two decades.
