Forgive us for being obvious, but with balmy temperatures on the radar this weekend, Washington, D.C. has suddenly become a worthy February vacation spot—and hotel rates are great near the White House.

As usual, we checked rates on our custom hotel search tool. Best of the bunch, close to Chez Obama? The W Washington, D.C. from just $219 on Saturday night. Next door, the Willard Intercontinental is at $239. And the famed Hay Adams Hotel, where the Obamas stayed right before Inauguration Day, is at just $279.

While we count down the gut-wrenching days until the big pick of the next leader of the free world, Kimpton Hotels want to remind you that you should totally plan a trip to the center of all the drama: Washington, D.C.

A "power trip," that is. Each of Kimpton's seven D.C. hotels is offering a "Portraits of Power" package to coincide with the Corcoran Gallery of Art's current big exhibit of the same name by photographer Richard Avedon.

Along with Kimpton's predictably well-appointed lodging, the package includes two VIP tickets to the art gallery (VIP=un-timed access) as well as a take-home catalog of the exhibit by German publishing powerhouse Steidl.]]> KatieK 2008-09-22T11:12:15-05:00 Washington: Good Rate :: Earth Day Weekend at D.C.'s Hotel Palomar http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2007/4/10/0181/81519 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/3930/palomar_dc.jpg" class="imgborder"/><p><b>[Ed.
