The Washington Times: Behind the imposing facade of this 1908 mansion is a world of antiques, stained glass and solid comfort, all put together with an unerring eye for color and line. From
Trip Advisor: The inn was a beautiful spot conveniently located, but still very
quiet with easy
parking. The
rooms were all beautifully decorated and slightly quirky in the details, which gave the entire inn a sense of whimsey and fun. We were not sure this would be a good idea, since we are used to big brand hotels. But our experience couldn't be better. Intown Uptown was by far better than expected. Intown Upotown is very much like DC. History is all around, and elegance, friendliness and hospitality melt together to make a perfect environment. In our
trip we also visited NY, were we stayed in a very expensive big brand hotel. Intown Uptown by far was a better experience. I can't wait to have another excuse to visit DC and stay at Intown Uptown, be it
business or pleasure!!!
