Inside, the contemporary Washington hotel features velvet furniture, marble floors and recessed shelves holding funky ceramic art. The popular Irish pub, Biddy Mulligan's, features a hardwood bar specially crafted in Ireland and shipped across the pond. As expected, Biddy Mulligan's bartenders pour a mean pint of Guinness. Meanwhile, the hotel's Dupont Grill features a 60's-retro décor and an inventive New American cuisine, including Graham Cracker-Crusted Flash-Fried Calimari, Vanilla-Cured Duck Breast and Grilled Fillet with Stilton Blue Cheese Glacage. Guest perks also include room service and 24-hour business and fitness centers.

Hotel accommodations include 314 guestrooms decorated in contemporary Scottish- influenced style, with striped mocha wallpaper and tartan bedspreads. They include high-speed Internet access, safes, down pillows and double-paned windows to keep out the racket.

Jurys Washington Hotel welcomes business travelers, families, groups, couples looking for romantic getaways and other vacationers who value the Washington hotel's location near embassies, think tanks, corporate offices and entertainment districts.
