Modus Hotels, the Washington DC-based collection of approachable, upscale, urban boutique hotels, today announced that the transformation of its 10thproperty, "Avenue Suites," in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, D.C. , is complete.
Acquired in an off-market transaction in 2011, the repositioning of the hotel has taken nine months and is already seeing dramatic financial success.
The substantial investment in the renovation of the hotel formerly known as Washington Suites Georgetown includes a new limestone façade and entryway, redesigned lobby and secluded patio, which is part of the exclusive A Bar, an upscale lounge overlooking Pennsylvania Avenue. Perched on prestigious Pennsylvania Ave., Avenue Suites features 124 studios and one-bedroom suites, which at 650 square feet are twice the size of an average D.C. hotel room. Each apartment-sized suite also has a fully-equipped kitchen. All of the rooms have been redecorated in a comfortable, contemporary style.
"This is a 'one-of-a-kind' hotel in a superior location," noted Aaron Katz, president and CEO of Modus Hotels. "There are plenty of hotels in Georgetown and on Pennsylvania Avenue, but no other hotel has the combination of a coveted address, Metro access and spacious, affordably-priced, executive-style accommodations. It's the ideal combination of style, comfort and practicality."
