What was once one of the world’s most glamorous hotels soon hopes to reclaim its former reputation. After undergoing a $125 million renovation, The Watergate Hotel will reopen its doors this summer. The hotel, which opened in 1965 and has been closed for the last seven years, will have 340 guest rooms, a fine dining restaurant, a whiskey bar, a 12,500 square-foot spa and fitness center and a rooftop bar and lounge with panoramic views of the Potomac River and the city – all in a mid-century modern design.
