WASHINGTON, D.C.
Hilton announced the signing of The Darcy, Curio Collection by Hilton. The 226-room hotel is slated to open in mid-2017 in Washington D.C., just off Scott Circle and six blocks from the White House. The Darcy’s central location will allow guests to visit the city’s many monuments, attractions and museums.
The Darcy is said to feature a timeless-yet-edgy design, focusing on clean and classic architecture with accents of distressed metals and bright colors. Subtle cherry blossom patterns and abstract artwork of magnolias will connect the hotel to the local spirit and energy of Washington and its community.
“The Darcy will offer unparalleled, personalized service in the most convenient of locations in Washington, D.C.,” said Tobias Arff, general manager of The Darcy. “Our location is ideal no matter your reason for visiting – whether visiting the White House and the National Mall, heading to meetings on K Street or looking for inspiration from one of the new hot spots on 14th Street Corridor.”
Chefs Robert Wiedmaier and Brian McBride created the hotel’s restaurant, Siren, which will feature locally sourced ingredients paired with the 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 and concierge services.
The 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, will make The Darcy a well-situated choice for meetings and events in the center of Washington, D.C. The hotel is a ten-minute walk from Metro stations at Dupont Circle and McPherson Square and three miles from Reagan National Airport.
