The Ritz-Carlton Washington D.C.

Luxury hospitality brands all across Washington are offering special packages for the presidential inauguration Jan. 20 to capitalize on the event’s tendency to draw high-net-worth individuals, despite political standing.

The Ritz-Carlton, Embassy Row and Kimpton Hotel Palomar are just a few of the hotels to provide special programs, packages, decorations and themed events to celebrate the changing presidents. While this U.S. presidential election has been no less than volatile, for Washington this is the city’s biggest event, meaning hospitality brands will take advantage regardless of political standing.“The Inauguration is a marquee event for the District,” said Taylor Rains, managing partner at Flugel Consulting, LLC. “It’s essentially the city’s version of the World Cup.

“It comes every four years and brings with it activities and events that span the week,” he said. “Although this most recent election cycle was less than typical, it’s important for the city to continue its tradition of excellence in ringing in a new administration.
