Facilities Rental

The perfect venue for your event.

Urban and Intimate. Our Tudor-style house includes a Great Hall, library and garden that provides an elegant and intimate setting for your guests.

Convenient and Accessible. Located in the Dupont Circle Historic District, 10 Minutes from St. Matthew’s Cathedral, two blocks from the Dupont Circle metro station and two blocks from a commercial parking garage.

Creative and Cultural. Our philosophy follows our mission, to bring people together, share ideas and experiences.

Personalized and Memorable. Our Chef can help plan a catering menu designed to meet your food interests and budget. All of our staff are committed to helping you have a memorable event that achieves your objectives.

Historic and Unique. This early-20th century mansion at 1825 R Street is unlike many other Washington, DC venues. We have been holding events for over 70 years. Below are a few photos ISH-DC Alumna, Rae Walton, shared from her wedding at ISH-DC in 1948!
