Dining

The Beacon Bar and Grill
The Beacon Bar & Grill (BB&G) serves Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Sunday Brunch. It has appeal for hotel guests and local-area residents alike. A sleek modern fireplace, communal tables, multi-level dining options and rich fabrics and furnishings create a sense of urban flair. Offering four distinctive dining experiences under one roof, BB&G caters to the varying lifestyles of its patrons. The space incorporates a high-energy, hob-knob lounge-style area with a two-story atrium room showcasing the bustling Dupont Circle neighborhood, as well as a more casual outdoor caf. As an alternative, private nooks and separate booths offer a quiet setting for business or intimate dining. Yet, the most sought-after seat in the house is the chef's table, a back-dining room where patrons can partake of the chef's distinctive fare fresh off the fire. Whichever dining experience you choose, BB&G's impressive menu offers the contemporary and inspired American cuisine to suit any mood.

Outstanding Hospitality.

When we arrived at the Beacon Hotel we were cordially greeted by a very friendly staff. From the eager to help us with our bags out the cab doorman to the pleasant front desk staff. Our room was available for us well before check-in time also. When we arrived in our room we noticed that the temperature was much too high in the room. We went to go get lunch and let them know on the way out about the problem. It turned out the a/c was broken in the room. We expected to get another room and a few apologies. Instead, we got upgraded to their best suite. Keep in mind, our original room was the cheapest one. We had a plasma screen television and an electric fireplace. They even gave us a complimentary bottle of wine in the room waiting for us with an apology letter. The service was excellent and the rooms are amazing. If you are staying in dc I highly recommend this hotel.

There are several good restaurants in the Dupont and Logan Circle areas. Plus, there's a Whole Foods if you want to pick up lunch, or food for the trip home.

Hot hotel for price!

The Beacon Hotel and Corporate Quarters in Washington D.C. was amazing! If you are a business traveler, this is the hotel to stay at hands down. As a tourist however, I saw another side to this hotel. It is close enough to walk to certain attractions, but a cab ride on a hot day is fairly inexpensive as well. I would recommend this hotel to anyone going to DC. Everyone was polite, the sky bar is located in the restaurant on the top (delicious martinis!)and everything else was spectacular. We were very impressed with the quality of everything we received for the price we paid.

Not too far away are all the sights of DC..the Capitol, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, National Archives, Smithsonian, etc. On a hot day however, a cab ride is a cheap and easier way to go! Still wonderful!

Great and reasonable

We had a fabulous time @ this hotel on our trip to DC. We were just a few blocks from the White House and a great location for some light shopping. The lobby was being remodeled when we arrived on Monday evening, but my Wednesday morning, it was all completed and looked wonderful! The rooms were large and the bed was so comfortable. We also enjoyed the free continental breakfast to start our day. The restaurant on site was nice with great decor. All and all we had no complaints I would definitely recommend the hotel to friends in the future!
