Washington, DC, Oct. 02, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The St. Gregory Hotel, a boutique hotel in D.C.’s coveted Dupont Circle neighborhood between Georgetown and West End has announced the completion of the total renovation of 156 guestrooms and suites, the final step in converting the hotel into a luxury lifestyle property. This renovation included a transformation of the lobby and a partnership with acclaimed Philadelphia-based restaurant, Tredici Enoteca.
New York-based design firm, Bill Rooney Studio, developed the redesign for the guestrooms and suites in addition to the hotel’s lobby, which was selected as a finalist in the prestigious Gold Key Awards for Excellence in Hospitality Design for 2017. Building on the sophisticated and welcoming lobby design, the rooms and suites incorporate a mix of heritage and modern mid-century inspired details with clean rustic elements.
The St Gregory’s new penthouse level boasts balcony rooms and city views, as well as elevated wet bars, premium coffee, and spa-like turndown services from local D.C. partners. For the ultimate luxury stay, The St. Gregory Suite features a wraparound balcony, king-size bed, separate deluxe entertainment space, dining table, well-curated wet bar, cozy gas fireplace, sleeper couch, working desk and television.
"The guest rooms were conceived to enhance relaxation,” says Rooney. “Every little detail has been thoughtfully-designed from luxurious textures to sophisticated refinements to make for an elevated guest experience. We want guests to feel like they are living in a cosmopolitan and elegant modern D.C. residence.”
To amplify the guest experience, the guestrooms and suites have been structurally reconfigured to increase the amount of natural light, maximize available space and create organizational and technological efficiency. They possess a residential scale, ranging from 300 to 900 square feet, and feature crisp white walls, rustic wood floors and accent walls, woven geometric rugs, navy accents, two-tone graphic art and subtle cove and accent ambient lighting. The rooms are a fresh take on modern elegant comfort and appeal to the well-traveled guest.
“The St. Gregory has always been perfectly located in Dupont Circle offering unbeatable access to DC’s cultural and historic attractions,” said general manager Robert Clark. “The stylish sophistication of the neighborhood is captured in the new design. We aim to immerse guests in the local culture with curated amenities and personalized services.”
As part of the renovation, The St. Gregory also transformed the fitness center into a state-of-the-art facility with Peloton Bikes and cutting-edge equipment, added an expansive outdoor garden patio as an extension of Tredici Enoteca and refreshed its light-filled meeting and event space with 3,000 square feet of space for functions for up to 200 people.
The St. Gregory Hotel introduced new pet-friendly programming, added in special amenities and services for kids and families, and collaborated with local partners like Paradise Springs Vineyard, Artisan Chocolate, Virtue SkinFood, a host of nearby boutique fitness studios, The National Geographic Museum and The Building Museum. In addition to the refreshed modern design, the hotel offers complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi in all guest rooms and public spaces, a 24-hour business center, dry cleaning services, 24-hour concierge, and valet parking.
To experience all that is new at the St. Gregory Hotel, the hotel is offering a limited time Meet the New St. Gregory offer which includes 20% off room upgrades and a special welcome amenity. Packages is available for bookings made through The St. Gregory website.
