The acclaimed thoughtfully designed, long term stay brand expands to the heart of the capital with ROOST White House, continuing its strategic growth in key urban markets across the U.S.

Method Co., the nationally acclaimed real estate management, development, and design company behind the ROOST Apartment Hotel brand, announces the opening of ROOST White House, marking the brand’s first Washington, D.C. location and eighth property in the country. As a pioneer in thoughtfully curated, extended-stay space since its debut in 2014, ROOST Apartment Hotel has redefined short and long-term travel accommodations by blending the sophistication and service of a boutique hotel with the comfort and liveability of an apartment. Situated at 1425 New York Avenue NW within Accolade, a new mixed-use development by Maryland-based Foulger Pratt, ROOST White House brings the brand’s signature design-forward ethos, elevated guest experience, and cutting-edge hospitality model to the centre of  Washington, D.C.

“Opening ROOST White House in Washington D.C. marks an exciting milestone for our brand’s growth nationally and along the country’s East Coast,” said Randall Cook, Co-Founder and CEO of Method Co. “D.C. draws people from around the world for work, diplomacy, culture, and history, and we saw an opportunity to introduce elevated accommodations that meet the evolving needs of today’s travellers. With ROOST White House, we’re offering a comfortable, design-friendly space ideal for longer stays, in a location that puts the city at our guests’ fingertips.”

Spanning the second and third floors of Accolade, ROOST White House features 35 fully furnished apartment hotel units bringing the brand’s signature spacious, thoughtfully designed accommodations and boutique hotel services right in the centre of the nation’s capital. The property includes a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom accommodations, designed for both short and long-term stays.

Each ROOST White House apartment hotel unit features a full-size kitchen, in-unit laundry, and curated furnishings that offer both a refined and liveable design approach — perfect for stays ranging from a few days to several weeks. Designed by Method Studios, Method Co.’s in-house interior design firm, each apartment hotel unit offers both a sense of calm and sophistication. Interiors feature custom furniture, including upholstered beds in boucle and velvet blends, with vintage Oushak rugs featuring muted palettes and layered with patterns that add depth and richness. Select pieces from Four Hands, Audo Copenhagen, Gubi, and Room & Board complement the vintage and custom furnishings, emphasizing natural textures and organic forms. Hand-glazed ceramic lamps by Stone & Sawyer and layered ambient lighting complete the elegant atmosphere.

Guests at ROOST White House also enjoy a suite of modern amenities, including a 24/7 concierge, complimentary bike share program, a state-of-the-art fitness centre featuring free weights, machines, stationary bikes, and a yoga studio, as well as two private meeting rooms. The expansive rooftop offers sweeping views of Washington, D.C., with a reflection pool, communal lounges, fire pits, coworking spaces, a wet bar and catering kitchen, and a dog run, creating a true retreat in the centre of the city. Additionally, guests can unwind in the atrium-style 13-story courtyard, ideal for both work or pleasure.

Ideally situated in the heart of Washington, D.C.’s Central Business District, ROOST White House offers unmatched access to many of the city’s most iconic sights, including the White House, National Mall, Smithsonian museums, and leading cultural institutions, as well as its major political and business centres. This location makes it a compelling choice for both leisure and business travellers seeking a refined, residential-style stay in the capital. The opening of ROOST White House ushers in an exciting new chapter in the ROOST Apartment Hotel’s continued growth, joining the brand’s expanding portfolio of thoughtfully designed,  long term stay hotels in Philadelphia, Cleveland, Tampa, Detroit, and Baltimore with upcoming plans for additional ROOST locations to open in new markets including Austin.
