Phoenix Park Hotel

Washington DC, USA

Virgin rating

The hotel

Its stately setting on Capitol Hill is just the start of the ‘grandeur’ you can expect at Phoenix Park Hotel. A historic property that’s been treated to an $8 million makeover, this has all the sharp styling you’d expect from a hotel right at the heart of this modern metropolis, just a block from Union Station and a stroll from the top sights and shopping. The splendour starts the minute you step inside, with its elegant lobby dressed in mossy greens, uplifting blues, and the sparkle of its shimmering floor, chandeliers, and gold-daubed sweeping staircase. The dining here is more rousing than refined though – with its snug Irish pub, The Dubliner, outfitted with bottle-green walls and emerald leather bar stools, and bringing you all the classics, including fish and chips, Irish Beef Stew, Guinness, and even the odd Irish ‘jig’.

The attached restaurant was also fantastic, and this will be the place I stay for all future trips to DC. Convenient to Capitol Hill and easily walkable to so many key places. Phoenix Park exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend! Read less

The hotel was lovely, clean and well cared for. There was coffee always available. The people on the staff were so helpful and interested in my plans. They helped me with directions and timing, especially Amare and Jerry. The Dubliner restaurant and pub were welcoming and fun with music every night.

We hosted a significant number of family and friends at the Phoenix Park as part of our wedding block and got rave reviews! Janice was also very helpful and provided updates as the block started to fill up.
