The Liaison Capitol Hill

The Liaison Capitol Hill, an Affinia Hotel offers chic boutique-style hospitality for groups of up to 500 people just steps from the U.S. Capitol and National Mall. Delegates meet in the casually elegant Metropolitan Ballroom, three state-of-the-art conference rooms, and three executive boardrooms complete with TV, powder room, and kitchenette.

Recently renovated at a cost of $6 million, the hotel boasts 17,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor meeting space, 343 up-to-the-minute guest rooms and suites, and a bona fide celebrity chef. Chef Art Smith—a two-time James Beard Award winner—presides over everything from the signature restaurant, the aptly named Art and Soul, to the custom catering menus and 24-hour room service. He even provides the light fare available near the seasonal pool—at the only rooftop bar on Capitol Hill.
