The sleek, contemporary, styling of this Holiday Inn is not what you would expect of a chain hotel. Decorated in eye-catching cobalt blue and black, the rooms feature leather-based platform beds with high wood-and-fabric headboards, while the lobby sports a unique "bubble" wall. Its location in Capitol Hill--and its amenities--make it a great port for families and business travelers alike. Each room has high-speed Internet access, and Wi-Fi is also available in the lobby, restaurant, and meeting rooms. An in-house business center provides 24-hour access to computers, copiers, or fax services.
