Thompson Hotels newest location, Donovan House in Washington DC, officially opens today (at $179 a night) and we're dying to see what the place looks like.

But apparently, getting a picture of this place is just as hard as getting a job in the CIA. So we're asking any of you DC folk to send in your pictures of the hotel if you got 'em. Or you can drop them into the HotelChatter Flickr Pool.

For now, we only have a few renderings and some real photos to work with. See them after the jump.

Here's a crappy picture of the hotel's exterior when it was once a Holiday Inn.

Hotel lobby rendering.

Photo of general manager Brett Blass taken by the Washington Biz Journal shows what we think is some lobby lighting in the background.

Wild Bill Donovan, the hotel's namesake. He was the wartime head of the Office of Strategic Services and considered the "father" of today's Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
