Donovan House, Washington DC

Make a reservation at Donovan House
Donovan House is the first Thompson Hotel property, opened in Washington DC. The hotel was designed by Studio Gaia ; a combination of deep purple. Throughout the property, colors in olive green, deep purple, and burgundy are paired with clean architectural materials like alabaster, limestone and dark teak wood to create a modernized version of Washington D.C
In the lobby, platform seating with glowing alabaster panels, custom hanging egg chairs and Studio Gaia’s interpretation of the “club chair,” create intimate conversation areas for patrons waiting to dine in the hotel’s destination restaurant Zentan or head upstairs to their guest room. Corridors leading to the hotel’s 193 rooms feature dark aubergine walls, white doors and ceilings, and long horizontal mirrors with chrome accents. A modern palate of clean white walls and dark woods with accents in deep reds, beiges and purples add to the room’s seductiveness. The centerpiece of each room is a custom chocolate leather canopy bed, flanked by a round writing desk on the side and the club chair at the foot of the bed.


All rooms and suites feature custom made 400 thread count linens and spa products by Kiehls. The room design breaks away from the traditional bathroom and bedroom layout by connecting the two rooms with a special cocoon spiral shower. A very new style of hotel for DC.
