Our hotel experts have scanned the area to bring you the best hotels in Waterfront, Washington DC. Both are luxury options but differ greatly in design. So whether you are looking for a hip industrial conversion or an elegant five star, why not browse through our collection to start planning your next city break?

For traditional style

Salamander Washington DC is an elegant five star hotel set in a quiet spot by the tidal basin. Expect all the luxury trimmings including a spa, restaurant, bar and a beautiful indoor pool. Service is on-point and many of the luxurious rooms benefit from wonderful water views.

For modern design

Thompson Washington DC is a seriously luxe hotel set in Navy Yard (one of the city's trendiest districts). Rooms perfectly merge the industrial building's original features with contemporary minimalist design. However, it's the restaurant Maialino Mare that's really got guests clamouring for a reservation.
