Overview

A sign of the nation’s affluence, the Presidential Suite embodies the historic grandeur of old D.C. and represents an important narrative of United States history. After the assassination of President James A. Garfield, the Presidential Suite was built for presidents to safely await their travels and it’s the very room several presidents used to welcome world leaders and dignitaries to the United States. During the world wars, it was temporarily transitioned to a USO lounge for soldiers heading off to war.
