Additional Information

City Life

Mandarin Oriental, Washington D.C. is conveniently located in the centre of the city, so you’ll be perfectly placed to see it all. Often referred to as a cultural and historical melting pot, what's a trip to DC without visiting its museums and monuments?

Begin at the National Mall, an area stretching over two miles from the Lincoln Memorial at one end, past the Washington Monument to the U.S. Capitol Building at the other. Admiring these iconic sites, as well as touring the area’s world-class Smithsonian museums can easily dominate the focus of any trip.

From the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum to the National Museum of Air & Space, there's a deep well of historic knowledge to discover, and they’re free to enter. The hotel is also perfectly located for visiting its most iconic site, The White House, the home of every U.S. president except George Washington.

You’re also close to the charming neighbourhood of Georgetown, Washington, D.C.’s oldest district, where you can dine at Martin’s Tavern, said to be where JFK proposed to Jackie Onassis.

Meanwhile, Penn Quarter & Chinatown draws everyone from foodies to sports fanatics; you’ll see where Abraham Lincoln was assassinated at Ford’s Theatre in 1865, dine your way around eateries with celebrity chefs at their helm and catch a show at the District’s Capital One Arena, typically hosting everything from professional sports teams to pop and rock icons.

Spa and Wellness

Clear your mind with a workout in the state-of-the-art fitness centre, or head for a morning swim at the 50-foot indoor lap pool. Recline on one of the poolside daybeds or enjoy the weather at the outdoor sundeck overlooking Washington marina and the Washington Channel.

After a day of exploring America’s capital, return to your luxurious base to restore tired muscles at the spa – considered one of the best and most comprehensive holistic spas in the city. You’re encouraged to arrive a minimum of 60 minutes prior to your scheduled treatment to immerse yourself in the spa’s ‘heat experience’: an amethyst steam room, experience shower, vitality pool and ice fountain.

Try the signature Cherry Blossom Treatment, combining the ancient art of beauty with a relaxing and enchanting body ritual and you’ll also receive a cherry-blossom-inspired gift. For more peace and quiet, you can always book a private yoga or meditation class, and wander the hotel’s own picturesque gardens to enjoy the beauty of the cherry blossom trees.
