Hotel Equities and Urban Investment Partners have opened The Quincy, Ascend Hotel Collection, in Washington, D.C. The Quincy is an upscale boutique hotel in the city’s business district, close to the metro and a short walk to the White House. The hotel, franchised by Choice Hotels International, is owned by 1823 Owner, a UIP affiliate, and operated by Hotel Equities.

"We are thrilled to open the doors of The Quincy and invite guests to experience the bespoke service that Ascend Hotel Collection is celebrated for," said owner Steve Schwat. "Our prime location, spacious accommodations and modern amenities make The Quincy a standout choice for anyone visiting Washington, D.C., whether they are here to explore the city’s historic landmarks or conduct business."

The Quincy has 99 guestrooms, each with a full kitchen. The lobby has a grab-and-go station and the property has partnered with a neighboring restaurant and bar, Pisco y Nazca and Recessions, to offer curated dining experiences.

In the coming weeks, The Quincy will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony, welcoming the HE and UIP teams, local corporate accounts and key stakeholders. A 'Sip & See' event will also invite the local community to explore the hotel, engage with staff and highlight partnerships with organizations like the Washington VA Medical Center.

The property is close to George Washington University, Dupont Circle, European Union and World Bank and is 0.2 miles from Farragut North Metro Station.

Ibrahim Bajrami is GM of the hotel alongside Director of Sales & Marketing Dennis Hernandez.
