Washington, DC
Like most trusty Hilton Garden Inns, this one caters to lots of business travelers and families. Unlike most, this one is in a glittering Silver LEED-certified building. The spacious rooms have easeful beds, a powered-up work desk, Keurig coffeemaker and fridge. The rooftop frolics with an outdoor pool and garden terrace.
The location is a trifecta of easy walking goodness between Dupont Circle, Foggy Bottom and Georgetown.
