The newly restored Hotel du Pont has hosted travelers since 1913. The awardwinning 4 Star, 4 Diamond hotel is located in downtown Wilmington, conveniently situated in the heart of the historic Brandywine Valley midway between New York and Washington DC, and only a 25-minute drive from the Philadelphia International Airport. The luxuriously restored oversized guestrooms received the International Gold Key Design Award for the best guest room design in the world. The elegant "Green Room" offers outstanding French Continental cuisine, while the "Brandywine Room" features classic American specialties served in an intimate atmosphere amidst three generations of original Wyeth paintings. The entire property is graced with original art work. Afternoon tea, a luncheon buffet and evening cocktails with complimentary hors d' oeuvres are served in the Lobby Lounge.
