From Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), take the Metro's Blue Line to Metro Center Station, just three blocks from the hotel. If you arrive at Union Station via Amtrak, it's 1.3 miles away; a taxi or ride-hailing service will get you there quickly. The hotel is also close to Federal Triangle Station, another convenient Metro option. For a direct trip from DCA, a taxi or pre-booked sedan service works well. From Dulles or BWI, a car service or taxi is the straightforward choice.
For an evening out, the hotel's own Bar serves drinks, and nearby you'll find Chef José Andrés' spots: Jaleo for Spanish tapas, Oyamel for Mexican, China Chilcano for fusion, and Zaytinya for mezze. Barmini, a cocktail lab, is a short stroll away. After dinner, the National Mall is a 14-minute walk, where the monuments and Capitol views are impressive at night.
