Our Take: The massive Willard sits at the heart of everything D.C.: The White House, the National Mall and the Washington Monument are all within walking distance. And recent guests say the Willard's inside is just as impressive as its surroundings, particularly the massive marble columns and intricate chandeliers in the lobby. Elegant décor extends to the Willard's accommodations, which feature eye-popping red accents, wood furnishings, and luxurious amenities like cozy robes, complimentary newspapers, and fully equipped mini-bars. However, some guests do say noise can be a problem. To ensure a restful night's sleep, splurge on a room that looks west, facing the Washington Monument rather than 14th Street. After a long day of sightseeing, you can relax at the Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa or grab a bite to eat at one of the four gourmet eateries. If you participate in InterContinental's Priority Club Rewards program, you can accrue or redeem free perks and discounts by choosing to stay here.
