Marriott Marquis DC Hotel Shuttles

A staple for business travelers looking to attend events at the nearby Walter E. Washington Convention Center, the Marriott Marquis Washington DC offers total elegance through sleek modern amenities as well as the trendy surroundings of DC’s Shaw neighborhood. Floor-to-ceiling windows and towering cushioned headboards make each room especially easy to look forward to, with select suites adding access to a separate lounge serving complimentary breakfast and evening appetizers. Although shuttles are not offered, the nearby Mt Vernon Square Metro Station is connected to the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, providing easy transfers across town and Reagan International Airport. Get even easier getaways by booking a private vehicle rental instead, looking forward to the easygoing nature of sedans and SUVs for vast glimpses of DC’s river networks, or go with the flow of a meet-and-greet service that offers convenient drop offs and pick ups via stretched limousine, taxi and local personal driver.

A striking example of modern art in itself, the atrium-lit lobby of Marriott Marquis DC is one that offers instant access to the Shaw neighborhood’s admiration for ambiguous architecture - gain easy access to this with a walk through the modern works of Long View Gallery up the street, or go on a quick tour of feminist history at the National Museum of Women in the Arts. A great chaser is the nearby CityCenterDC, home to various upscale fashion brands as well as close walking distance to a handful of nearby restaurants, while more thoughtful conversations can be had with a modest sit down at Franklin Square. As far as dusk entertainment goes, consider a cooling stroll across the Reflection Pool and scenic pathways of Constitution Gardens, each located a bit further southwest from Franklin Square, finally settling down with dinner at one of many beloved restaurants in the adjacent Chinatown neighborhood.
