Lonely Planet review for Watergate Complex

The Watergate is an iconic bit of Washingtonia. The riverfront complex of private apartments, designer boutiques and deluxe hotel is an integral feature of the city’s facade. And then there’s that little break-in that occurred here in 1972, when the Democratic National Committee headquarters was raided by Nixon’s Committee to Re-elect the President – CREEP. Monica Lewinsky, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Condoleezza Rice have all lived here. As of writing, the interior of the complex was closed to the public for renovations through 2009.
