I have narrowed it down to two hotels (possibly a third in the DC Area) to decide upon. Both have attractive facilities and would serve our purposes very well.
While ther are no attactions that I think we can take advantage of in October, the Hotel does have a great bowling alley next door with a private party room and bar.
The Airport is also a stone's throw for the airport with a 5 minute shuttle ride to the airport provided by the hotel.
I've never seen this before at a hotel, but they have an ourdoor pool which is totally enclosed for the cold or inclement weather. This would be a perfect setting for a relaxing evening swim.
• Unique boutique hotel with innovative terraced design in Downtown Washington, DC
• Walking distance to Dupont Circle, White House, K Street, and Smithsonian Museums
• Three miles from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA)
I have been dying to visit the Air Space Museum and see the original filming model for the original series which is housed there, the only piece of fiction in that museum. What a place to hold a meeting, and to make it over there and lay eyes on the model that started it all!
