2. The Watergate Hotel
Washington, D.C.

Ever heard the phrase Watergate? Of course you have thanks to the infamous break-in connected with former President Richard Nixon. Bugging a hotel room, where the Democratic National Committee were staying, five men were soon busted and associated with one of the biggest scandals of American history. If you want to visit, the Watergate Hotel will be open in spring 2014 pending renovations.
