Washington, D.C.
Built in 1891 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this conversion of the 135,000 square-foot former Washington Loan & Trust building showcases the Peebles' ability to reconcile historic preservation with economic vitality.
Featured in several magazines, the historic renovation restored the original marble flooring, the ornate gold leafed ceiling and the Corinthian columns in the lobby area to their original luster, resulting in a uniquely lavish historic hotel.
The 188-key Courtyard by Marriott Convention Center offers an ideal location across the street from the National Portrait Gallery, just a few blocks from the MCI Sports Arena, the Smithsonian Mall, and Pennsylvania Avenue.
This property has ranked #1 in performance two consecutive years among Courtyard Hotels worldwide.
