    Historic hotel with beautiful interiors. Fabulous views and dinner on the rooftop terrace.

    We didn't stay at the hotel but our Conference reception and dinner was atop the Hays - Adams. Great balcony offering views of Wahsginton Monument, Lincoln Memorial. Fabulous meal with wonderfully paired wines. Service staff was very good.

    They definitely do connecting rooms and it is excellent choice for families with children - trust me children will receive the attention they rarely will in other hotels especially in US. Please read my review
