Lyle: A Minimalist Washington D.C. Hotel by Lore Group

Lyle is a minimalist hotel located in Washington, D.C., designed by Lore Group. Known for their collection of illustrious properties including Sea Containers London and Pulitzer Amsterdam, Lore Group continues to celebrate the history of the buildings in which each property finds itself.

Creative director Jacu Strauss found luxury within the details of the building’s original Art Deco features. By embracing these elements, he wanted to create a place of calm and comfort, mixed with understated style.

Strauss created spaces that are comfortable and calming in neutral tones for the rooms and penthouse suite, featuring natural materials including burl wood Art Deco headboards, rattan seating and berber carpets. In addition, 56 of the 196 bedrooms feature kitchenettes which are convenient for long stay visitors.
