A Luxury Hotel With Sweeping Historic Views Along the Washington DC Waterfront

Salamander Washington DC is the premier destination for an elegant urban escape in the new heart of the nation’s capital. Perfectly situated along the Southwest Waterfront, the hotel offers sweeping views of The Wharf and the Tidal Basin, home to the nation’s iconic cherry blossom trees. Steps away from the National Mall, historic landmarks, and cultural attractions, the hotel is seamlessly accessible from Reagan Washington National Airport and two major Metro stations.

Culinary excellence takes center stage at our hotel, offering an array of options that capture the essence of Washington D.C.’s diverse cuisine. Guests are invited to dine in modern refinement, whether indoors or al fresco. Dōgon, our new signature restaurant by renowned James Beard Award-winning Chef Kwame Onwuachi, presents a vibrant exploration of bold Afro-Caribbean flavors.

Our hotel offers 373 beautifully appointed rooms, including 51 suites. Designed with comfort and convenience in mind, each accommodation features spa-inspired marble bathrooms, captivating city and waterfront views, and thoughtful touches such as a Nespresso Machine, Smart TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi, and access to the fitness center and indoor pool.

The Salamander Spa, our two-level oasis, invites relaxation and rejuvenation. This luxurious spa features 14 beautifully redesigned treatment rooms, where guests are welcomed into a serene setting with expertly curated treatments designed to nurture mind, body, and spirit. 

Our centralized location is the ideal setting for meetings and events with over 36,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor meeting and event space, including our Grand Lawn that overlooks the Southwest Marina.
