The Dupont Hotel in Washington, D.C. relaunches in 2019.

The multimillion-dollar transformation includes a new bar and restaurant, reimagined lobby, updated 300-plus guestrooms and suites and one of the largest penthouses in the city.

“We are excited to reintroduce The Dupont Circle Hotel following an extensive renovation,” said Bernie Gallagher, chairman, The Doyle Collection. “The newly completed bar and restaurant along with the lobby and rooftop terrace suites will be the culmination of this major investment. The Dupont Circle is one of Washington’s best located hotels and our vision is for the hotel to become the social hub of this vibrant neighborhood in the center of the city. I am delighted to see this vision for the hotel come to life …”

The new club-esque bar, Doyle, takes the place of the previous Bar Dupont, with a 1950s feel including open fires, geometric patterns and brass finishes. The new restaurant offers al fresco and indoor dining, with more Mid-Century inspiration and a nod to the city’s famous cherry blossoms. An additional dining option is Doyle & Co, a coffee and chocolate bar.

The rooftop floor includes suites and a 5,000-square-foot penthouse with its own garden terrace with views of the Washington Monument. The penthouse includes two master bedrooms, a living area and dining area. Additional features include a fireplace and wet bar. The terrace is heated all year, with its own fire pit and a projector for movie nights.

The hotel welcomes guests starting next spring, with rates from $300 per night.
