Any hotel recommendation for DC? Either Marriott or Hilton is fine, but I’d consider boutiques too if they’re worth it.

Wife and I are planning to see the usual monuments and museums over Labor Day.

I would suggest the Hyatt, Canopy Hilton or Intercontinental at the Wharf. New location, restaurants and hotels. Great vibe to walk around and around 15-20 mins walk to the monument.

I would suggest something central.. we stayed renaissance downtown and it was a good location + nice value for points.

If you want a better/prettier location, you could do ritz in Georgetown

Trump International is one of the nicest hotels and literally the best location in DC, with a diverse and accommodating staff.

Unfortunately due to the ownership I’ve only let myself stay there a couple times...

I’m planning to get there a day or two ahead of my wife, so I’d be looking for some good lounge/cocktail spots as well. No problem moving hotels either if everything’s not in one spot.

Renaissance on 9th St. is pretty central to everything. Short walk to Metro. The Marriott Marquis is about 2 blocks north. Both have decent lounges.

The W at 15&Penn is a primo location and looks like a cool old building...has a great rooftop bar with an amazing view. Around the corner, you have a JW Marriott at 14th&Penn. I second the recommendation on new Marriott Marquis. Another good choice would be the Mayflower (Renaissance)...old school kinda elegant property on Connecticut Ave. Capital Hilton is a great location and kind of old school with good size rooms. The Hinckley Hilton has notoriety, and a slightly less touristy location but still close to DuPont. The new places at the Wharf will be as modern and expensive as it gets

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.
