IHG Hotels & Resorts celebrates the debut of the Vignette Collection in the Americas. As the newest Luxury & Lifestyle portfolio in IHG, the debut begins after the opening of Yours Truly DC, nestled within Washington D.C.’s eclectic Dupont Circle.
“We are committed to bringing Vignette Collection to the American market, and this first opening in the nation’s capital sets the stage for growth,” said Claire Bennett, Global Chief Customer Officer for IHG Hotels & Resorts. “The global success of the brand in just over a year since launch, with four hotels already welcoming guests in cities like Bangkok and Brisbane, speaks to our focus on delivering one-of-a-kind hotels and memorable experiences alongside a commitment to more responsible travel. Whether you travel for work or pleasure, Yours Truly DC welcomes guests not just with an invitation to stay and relax but also to explore and discover Washington D.C.”
Designed by Simeone Deary Design Group, the 355-room hotel is unique with its “bohemian-meets-brutalist” stylistic balance. Biophilic design, vivid earth tones, and the occasional disco ball accent the open-concept living. The modern rooms and suites blend comfort and style, boasting artwork from local and national creators.
Vignette Collection hotels curate the unexpected with ‘Memorable Rituals’ adding to the experience. El Donut Shoppe, an Orlando-based record store located off the hotel’s lobby, offers guests the chance to complement their stay with their favourite soundtracks. With vinyl of various genres, records are available for loan.
The hotel’s ‘Sorta South American’-inspired restaurant, Mercy Me, offers visitors authentic cuisines with creative cocktails. During the daytime, Call Your Mother provides guests with Jewish breakfast and lunch classics, including bagel sandwiches and coffee from local roasters.
At the core of the Vignette Collection is the belief in championing individuals. Yours Truly Small Business Collective is a hotel initiative supporting neighbouring small businesses. The collective includes florists, speciality map curators, and crystal retailers. Guests can receive exclusive offers, encouraging them to shop locally.
Yours Truly DC is the fourth hotel to open in Vignette’s Collection.
“This is an exciting addition to the over 6,000 hotels available within the recently reimagined IHG One Rewards loyalty program,” said Bennett, “and we look forward to creating unique moments and unexpected connections at Yours Truly DC for our members and guests.”
