The Capella Georgetown is located alongside its historic C&O canal and the cobblestone sidewalks of the chic and famous Georgetown district in Washington D.C. The hotel  features 49 guest rooms and suites. An elegant restaurant and lounge, featuring seasonal dining overlooking the Canal, highlights amenities that include an executive boardroom, a rooftop pool and bar and exclusive spa.

It is a renovation project and so the boundaries were set for the space planning of the hotel. Nevertheless the interior was asked to be redesigned to provide guests with a calm, private and secure setting and a strong focus was requested on the details to create a sophisticated ambience with plenty of space and a masculine touch for the property.

For that, careful design and attention to detail was given to ensure every hotel guest to have a luxury experience with his stay at the designed property. For a luxury boutique hotel like this, the selection of materials and FF&Es are of great importance to dictate how the guests would touch and feel the space. The hotel is comprised of a rich a palette of materials and finish to create a distinct icon in the heart of Washington. For instance, each room type has a custom designed scheme with different warm colour tones, geometric lines, custom furnishings and details.

Very soft cove lighting has delicately illuminated the lofty tray ceilings while large pieces of artwork adorn the walls. The artwork concept was carefully developed with the owner to enhance the sense of place of each functional space. Rich textures and materials, such as high quality European crafted paneling, reclaimed hardwood parquet from a French chateau, laser-cut marble, and luxurious drapery settings are used to create a space that is truly unique.
