The Jefferson

At the corner of 16th and M Streets, The Jefferson enjoys one of Washington, DC’s most prestigious and strategic locations, just four blocks from the White House and within a short walk of museums, monuments, shops and nightlife.

The Jefferson first opened its doors in 1923 as a luxury residential building but by 1955 was converted into a hotel.  This Beau Arts gem is one of Washington’s best luxury hotels, one that should be top of the list for your wedding weekend!  When you enter and are greeted by a personal butler under the expansive skylight, you just feel like you stepped back in the ages.  Imagine how your guests might feel staying here for the weekend or the luxury of getting ready for the big day in the Martha Jefferson Suite…oh my…

The Martha Jefferson Suite, the top-floor Bridal Suite affords 1,090 square feet of romance with city and skylight views accented by three Juliet balconies which open to allow an abundance of fresh air into the suite. A pale, Tiffany-inspired blue accents the suite’s soft palette of creams and grays, which is carried throughout its living room (featuring a gas fireplace), intimate dining room for two or four, and bedroom with a canopied King bed. The Bridal Suite’s bathroom features a soaking tub for two and intricate mosaic tiling. An additional powder room is found in the suite and a second king bedroom can be connected to create a two-bedroom luxury accommodation.

It would be beyond lovely to get ready with the girls in this room, and then, spend the night of the wedding here with your sweetheart.

And, not to worry, the spa at The Jefferson will offer pampering and renewal consistent with the hotel’s historic heritage, including treatment menu based on herbs and other botanicals grown on Thomas Jefferson’s farms.

Being from Charlottesville, the Thomas Jefferson Suite particularly speaks to my taste!

    Thanks for this hotel! We will be looking into it since it’s so close to the Decatur House
