With 53 days until Election Day, and 129 days until the inauguration, the Presidency is on the minds of all Americans. But, whether voting red or blue this election season, travelers are sure to win by staying at some of the country’s most presidentially-significant hotels.

attended by President JFK, has long been the hotel of choice for diplomats, entertainers, world leaders and international delegations. The property recently completed a 22 million dollar redesign that included all guest rooms and public spaces.
- The Madison’s Political Cocktail Party - PostScript, the lobby bar at The Madison will be offering two distinct cocktails now through the Inauguration and will be looking to fans of The Madison’s Facebook page to get creative and come up with a third cocktail that will be made available during Inauguration. The winning cocktail will join the hotel’s Massachusetts Mule and The Great Debate at the Lobby Bar from January 18 through the 22. The winner of The Madison’s Political Cocktail Party will receive a weekend stay at The Madison.
