04/03/13 I took a tour Wednesday evening of the newest hotel in town – the Capella Washington D.C., Georgetown. Very posh.

From the press release:

“The intimate hotel is ideally located adjacent to the historic C&O Canal in Georgetown and features 49-rooms and suites, including two majestic Presidential Suites. The overall design of the hotel is inspired by the history of American architecture and the designer, Peter Silling brought the hotel to life by depicting the evolution of this genre through the use of original contemporary art and furniture design blended with the more classic feel of the brownstone building’s industrial exterior. Timeless pewter and gold tones are carried throughout the hotel and into the individually designed guest rooms, which have been crafted to resemble elegant private residences.”
