The Trump Organization\u2019s contract with the General Services Administration, the administer of the historic postal service building, required the hotel to open by 2018, according to the Washington Business Journal.<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning of 2012, the GSA <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/gsa-taps-trump-for-200m-redevelopment-of-d-c-s-old-post-office-building\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">named Trump Hotel Collection as the redeveloper<\/a> of the historic building, which was completed in 1899 and served as D.C.\u2019s main post office until 1914. Two years ago, the property, sitting at 1100 Pennsylvania Ave., was leased for 140 years to The Trump Organization LLC. In July 2014, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/donald-trump-breaks-ground-on-200m-trump-international-hotel-washington-d-c\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trump broke ground on the $200 million redevelopment<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The luxurious 263-key hotel, conveniently located less than one mile from the White House, will feature lusciously furnished guestrooms and suites, 14-foot-wide carpeted corridors, crystal sconces, chandeliers, and the original solid wood doors. There will be 35 suites, with the Presidential ones boasting 2,500, 3,500, and 6,300 square feet, the latter set to become the largest in the city.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004136741\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004136741\" data-attachment-id=\"1004136741\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/trump-international-hotel-in-d-c-to-open-september-2016\/trump-hotel-interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png\" data-orig-size=\"1554,962\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Trump International Hotel, Washington, D.C., room detail\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Trump International Hotel, Washington, D.C., room detail&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png?w=1024\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1004136741 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png\" alt=\"Trump International Hotel, Washington, D.C., room detail\" width=\"300\" height=\"186\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png 1554w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png?resize=300,186 300w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png?resize=768,475 768w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png?resize=1024,634 1024w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2016\/02\/Trump-Hotel-Interior-2-trumphotelcollection-dot-com.png?resize=1536,951 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1004136741\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Trump International Hotel, Washington, D.C., room detail<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The D.C.
