Primp for the Inauguration Ball at a D.C. Kimpton Hotel

This inauguration, mimic the chiseled perfection of the weird statues at D.C.'s Hotel Rouge.

In a tizzy over the January blitz of glam balls, dinners, and parties in Washington, D.C. celebrating Barack Obama’s inauguration? We hear you, world. After all, Michelle isn’t the only one whose fancy dress matters come Jan. 20 (well, maybe it is, but whatever).

Kimpton totally understands your stress. But the hotel chain also thinks you should, uh, calm the eff down--ideally with their Ba‘Rock’ Star Treatment Package. Designed to help you do just that, the package’s perks pamper you head-to-toe in your guest room.

Available at Kimpton’s Topaz Hotel, Hotel Rouge, Hotel Madera, The Hotel George, Hotel Palomar, and Hotel Monaco, the add-on package includes pro hair styling and makeup application, a mani and pedi (with organic, paraben-free Kerstin Florian products), the choice of one of two 50-minute Kerstin Florian massages (Calm Mind Massage before going out or the Aroma Journey Massage for the groggy morning after), Kerstin Florian detox mineral bath salts, and a platter of snacks to help rev you up before you paint the town red (er, blue?).

The package rates start at a mean $705 (Kimpton’s not one to be left out of any trend, including insane prices for the inauguration) and can be booked as a side package for any room reservation Jan. 17-21. Kimpton hotels during the inauguration require a four-night minimum stay, with rates ranging from $849 to $1,299 a night. Though our PR contact at Kimpton assures us the six hotels still have a few openings for those dates, we can’t imagine that will be true for long.
