The Inn At Little Washington
Washington, USA
This country inn is synonymous with DC conviviality and hospitality. Chef patron Patrick O’Connell opened The Inn at Little Washington in 1978 and is now one of the Relais & Chateaux ‘Grands Chefs’. It soon became known as the best place to eat in the region, but it also stands out for its 100% commitment to every detail that will give guests a great time, from the trad country inn decor, sumptuous suites, and kitsch touches, such as Faira the cow cum cheese trolley, to the exceedingly warm welcome. According to one review, staff are so determined to show guests a good time, that they assess the mood of each diner on arrival and make sure to get everyone up to at least a nine out of 10 before they leave.
