there's also a great hotel (small & charming) called the latham right in g'town www.thelatham.com).

Bahut shukria for all the tips you guys rock!I've been to DC b4, I've gone to the smithsonian, I am planning to go to Adams morgan this time to have some ethiopoan food:) I will be renting a car because I am also planning on traveling to NJ and NY to attend a friend's graduation. any hotels close to the Georgetown area u'd recommend, I heard the four season is close to Georgetown.

Fadi, you'll love DC.. great museums, restaurants, nightlife and sightseeing. Do plan to check Georgetown, Adams Morgan. If you're stayin in downtown DC, no rental car needed. simply use the metro or cab it.. if u specific questions, drop me a line..peace

there is always lots to do in dc. i dont know if you've ever been here before, but if not, you'll have to check out all the smithsonian museums (my favorite is the air & space one) and all the monuments and memorials. hopefully, the weather will be good. also, check out georgetown if you get a chance. have a great time!
