Dupont Circle hotel offers chic spaces and approachable bistro fare
Downtown style permeates The Dupont Circle Hotel, where a multimillion-dollar renovation transformed the hotel from top to bottom — an entire floor was added and christened the ultra-exclusive Level Nine. Fresh, vibrant and cosmopolitan, The Dupont Circle Hotel caters to guests in non-smoking rooms and suites, the French-inspired Cafe Dupont, 24-hour concierge services and meeting and event facilities that set the bar very high. European-style boulevards and America’s most coveted national landmarks are all within walking distance.
Highlights
  • Exclusive Level Nine concierge suites
  • Chic guest rooms with flat-panel TVs and iPod docking stations
  • 24-hour fitness center
Rooms
The private, key-access top floor at The Dupont Circle Hotel is Level Nine, a concierge level that establishes a new standard for personalized service and luxury amenities. The centerpiece of Level Nine is a 900-square-foot private living room with a fireplace, glass balcony overlooking Dupont Circle and three exclusive meals a day. Thoughtful modern design is evident in every detail, but the key concept here is service. A guest relations manager contacts Level Nine guests before their stay to make sure their stay is tailored to their specific preferences.
Superior and deluxe guest rooms at The Dupont Circle Hotel don't skimp on style and comfort -- look for luxury linens, heated bathroom tiles, plantation shutters and ergonomic Eames-style seating.
Dining
Cafe Dupont at The Dupont Circle Hotel draws on French themes to create a specialized menu utilizing fresh, organic produce from neighborhood markets. Enjoy a meal in the stylish dining room or the outdoor patio that showcases Dupont Circle. An original brunch choice is steamed mussels with chorizo cream. Bar Dupont revels in a seductive atmosphere, where the Dupont cosmo is a great starter before indulging in a prosciutto and brie baguette with fries dressed in truffle aioli.

The Right Stuff

We were looking for a location close to our daughter's apartment. What a bonus to find such a clean, well appointed hotel with such a friendly and helpful staff. A nice clean smell (they shampooed the hallway carpet while we were there!) The breakfast buffet was terrific. The beds were comfy--very relaxing. The hotel bar looked lively--we were too tired to join in the festivities. The location was central to many forms of transportation--another plus.

Great business service

When the flight for my colleague and myself was canceled, this hotel staff could not have been nicer. We were given helpful information on the spot.

Great location on Dupont Circle

The location is why we came here, but we would stay there again because of the helpful staff and pleasant surroundings. The room had a real closet and the bathroom had a very nice storage shelf, although the sink was too small. The room was freezing cold when we walked in on a 65-degree day, which seemed totally wasteful. Luckily there are individual temperature controls and the windows open, so we were fine. The freezing cold halls were still quite a shock and our only really complaint. The bar, where we hoped to go for a drink the night we arrived, was packed and ear-splittingly loud. But its popularity indicates it has something going for it. Not a dowdy hotel bar in the least! Luckily, there was a Starbucks across the street.

There's a Starbucks across the street on one side and a Books-a-Million (open daily till late) on the other. A park with fountain provides a nice place to hang out in Dupont Circle. Plenty of shops and restaurants, since Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Hampshire Avenues all intersect there. Walk to everything.

Great customer service

Very friendly and helpful staff. Amenities were great--I was attending conference at another hotel so did not have much time to use the business center etc. Good lighting in bathroom which is not the norm in most hotels. Good food--Very responsive room service Difficult to adjust temperature in the room but would definitely go back for business or pleasure. Prices are high

Great location

Loved the location and neighborhood of the Jury's Hotel in Dupont Circle. Close to Metro and within walking distance of Embassy Row, restaurants, shops, etc. Very eclectic neighborhood! Felt safe walking around at night.

Great for the money

I usually stay closer to College Park for business at the University of Maryland, but I decided to try something different this time. The room was only about five dollars more than at the tired, run-of-the-mill hotels that cluster around the university, and it was worlds better--clean, roomy, comfortable, new bathroom. And the location can't be beat for things to do close by or ease of access to the Metro.

All -Inclusive Option is needed

The only problem I had with this Hotel was the price and quality of the food offered by late night room service. Very expensive to eat in the motel restaurant also.

A lot of great restaurants within a two to four block walk. Georgetown is only about 8 blocks from the hotel and is a beautiful walk. The Metro (subway) is so easy to use and for a very small fee takes you to the Mall where all of the museums and monuments/memorials are located.
