EXPERIENCE EMBASSY ROW AND beyond

Alice Roosevelt believed the world was meant to be wandered thoroughly, preferably with curiosity, charm, and a little harmless rebellion. Washington still rewards that same spirit. From The Beacon, step into Embassy Row intrigue, Dupont Circle energy, iconic monuments, museum-worthy detours, gallery afternoons, and cocktail hours that have a habit of becoming late nights. Here, the capital reveals itself slowly through storied streets, cultural discoveries, and the unexpected pleasures tucked between the landmarks.

MEETINGS & SOCIAL EVENTS

Fiercely independent, strikingly original, and impossible to confine to convention, Alice Roosevelt moved through Washington with wit, charisma, and a spirit that even a president struggled to contain. The Beacon carries that same energy forward with thoughtfully reimagined gathering spaces designed for meetings, celebrations, and occasions that deserve more than a predictable ballroom. Newly renovated and rich with personality, the Princess Alice Ballroom and flexible event venues bring warmth, polish, and just the right amount of social intrigue to gatherings in the heart of Washington, DC.
