If you're looking for a stylish bolthole in hip Navy Yard to rest your head after a day sampling life in Washington D.C., this might just be it. A former 1930's mansion, reimagined into a smart, serviced apartment, this is studio living at its best. The designers have kept the space pared-back and contemporary, letting the light stream through the original windows, which reveal leafy scenes of the charming courtyard garden below. Feedback from guests regarding this home has never been short of outstanding – thanks to the spotless interiors and thoughtful touches to make for an easier stay. There's a starter kit with toiletries to help settle you in, along with tea, coffee, and an essentials cupboard in the communal space for topping up kitchen and bathroom necessities. Set in one of the city's most happening districts, Navy Yard, this once industrial shipyard has been transformed into a buzzy hood with trendy boutiques, waterfront parks, and a boardwalk for hanging out. It's also home to some of the city's best dining destinations (Michelin-starred fare included). It's the perfect excuse you've been looking for to eat out every night.
