Rob A.Rob Atkinson: A Washington classic. Low lighting and small tables, good for intimate conversations (or political scheming, as the case may be)

Tammy G.Tammy Gordon: Great spot for a clandestine meeting. Enter through lobby. Door downstairs to left of elevators. Concierge has phone chargers.

Jordan B.Jordan Balderas: Extremely disappointing for foodies or cocktail enthusiasts. Maybe it was an off night. However it may be, it was not the best hotel bar of America.
