5 STAR LUXURY HOTEL ROOMS & SUITES Updated February 4, 2008 - St. Regis Hotels & Resorts has reopened the St. Regis Washington, D.C. after an extensive 16-month-long renovation. The hotel, which first opened in 1926, is two blocks from the White House. The hotel renovated all guest rooms and public spaces, including the lobby, ballroom, fitness center and meeting rooms as well as a new landscape concept for the Astor Terrace (formerly the Crystal Terrace). The new layout was designed to meet the changing needs of the global St. Regis guest while embracing the legacy of the St. Regis brand. Formerly offering 193 guest rooms, the renovated property will feature 175 rooms, allowing for 11 additional, lavishly decorated suites. Each guest room will feature signature St. Regis amenities including wireless internet, 32-inch LCD television, DVD player, Pratesi linens and Remède Spa products as well as bathrooms intricately detailed with mosaic tiles and custom-designed brass fixtures. Guest rooms will also feature an innovative 15-inch LCD television, recessed behind the bathroom mirror, enabling images to be projected onto a screenless surface. The hotel's outdoor Astor Terrace, a long coveted location for Washington's preeminent events, is the only exterior space of its kind in the city that can accommodate up to 200 people. The redesign of this space enhances the European ambiance of the original design. HOTEL RESERVATIONS | BOOK FLIGHTS | CAR RENTAL |
