The Westin DC City Center Hotel Shuttles

Surrounded by the fast-paced lifestyle of downtown’s business district, The Westin Washington D.C. City Center offers modern restaurants and bars as well as close access to the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. The rooms offer DC-themed artwork that include photos of cherry blossoms and popular tourist landmarks, while marble bathrooms feature whirlpool tubs. All suites offer large wraparound balconies and pull-out sofas, not to mention separate bedrooms for added privacy. Free on-site amenities include complimentary Wi-Fi and 24-hour gym access, plus close access to the McPherson Square Metro along Vermont Avenue. Make inner-city transportation even easier through private rental options that include relaxed sedans, vans and SUVs perfect for taking the less-traveled route across town, or reserve a meet-and-greet service ranging from luxury limousines to slow-moving local drivers for professional drop offs to nearby events, finally considering a basic taxi for the simple benefit of arriving Dulles International on time.

Wake up early to see as much of the vibrant neighborhood as possible, a great starting point being Thomas Circle Park down the street, home to a statue of the Union’s general and modest greenery surrounded by the chirpy roundabout. For something quieter, move toward the much larger Franklin Square south of the hotel, as well as its neighboring Lafayette Square that doubles as the starting point for DC’s most recognizable landmarks ranging from the front facade of The White House to equally amusing tales told through various exhibits along the National Mall, from The National Gallery of Art’s government-approved thought provokers to the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum’s showcase of human’s slow development into flying machines. Popular restaurants great for ending the night on a good note include the new take on classic American dishes at Lincoln as well as casual wings at the rustic sports bar ambiance of Stan’s.
