We asked Jason Denby, the concierge of the Rosewood Hotel in Georgetown, to plan us a single, spectacular day in Washington, D.C.

More: See Fortune’s interactive guide to Washington, D.C. here: A Concierge’s Black Book — Washington, D.C.

1. Wake up at the Presidential Suite

Begin your day by waking up in the Presidential Suite of the Rosewood, and then take a short walk down the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal to Baked & Wired to enjoy a handcrafted coffee or espresso and fresh-baked biscuit or quiche.
