Hilton has announced the signing of The Darcy, Curio Collection by Hilton, to its Curio Collection of boutique hotels. The new hotel, which is the Collection’s first in Washington, DC, is slated to open in mid-2017.
The 226-room hotel is in the heart of Washington, D.C., just off Scott Circle. Only three blocks from Dupont Circle and Logan Circle, and six blocks from the White House, The Darcy’s central location will allow guests to easily visit the city’s many monuments, attractions and museums, including the Verizon Center and Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery, Hilton said.
Chefs Robert Wiedmaier and Brian McBride created the hotel’s restaurant, Siren, which will serve locally sourced ingredients paired with fresh seafood. Lil’ B, an intimate coffee shop and eatery, will be led by celebrity Chef David Guas, who brings his New Orleans style to the cafe. Additional amenities will include a fitness center, business services, room service, valet parking, concierge services and programming with business and leisure travelers in mind.
The hotel will also have approximately 5,500 square feet of meeting space, which will allow for flexible room sizes and include contemporary, state-of-the-art audio visual options. The hotel is a ten-minute walk from Metro stations at Dupont Circle and McPherson Square and three miles from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
