Loews Madison Hotel is a luxury hotel located in Washington, D.C.
History
Built in 1963 as The Madison Hotel, the hotel was opened by President John F. Kennedy.[1] The hotel has hosted every President of the United States since then.[2] It was managed by the Loews hotel chain for many years until 2010, when it was sold. In 2012 the hotel completed a $22 million renovation project to improve its guest rooms, lobby, restaurant and bar.[3] Soon after, Loews Corp bought the hotel in December 2012[4] and it rejoined the Loews chain in January 2013.[5]
Rating
The AAA gave the hotel four diamonds out of five in 2012. The hotel has maintained that rating every year, and received four diamonds again for 2016.[6] Forbes Travel Guide (formerly known as Mobil Guide) declined to give the hotel five or stars in 2016, nor did the hotel make its "recommended" list.[7]
