Holiday Inn Capitol at the Smithsonian - Property informationWhat to expect: Tucked among federal office buildings just 2 blocks from the National Mall, this 529-room hotel buzzes with life: families set out for the nearby museums and monuments, business travelers hail cabs for downtown appointments. The modern lobby offers racks of information on D.C.’s sights. And the family-friendly hotel is large enough to keep groups of visiting students far away from more sedate clientele looking for a restful night’s sleep. - Amenity highlights: The rooftop swimming pool is open from spring to fall as weather permits and provides a respite from D.C.’s summer heat waves, as well as a view of the Capitol dome. Guests can also lounge on the adjoining sun deck. Coin-operated washers and dryers are available on the second floor for those laundry emergencies, and a business center provides Internet access, copying, and fax services.
- Insider tip: Guests can avoid long lines by buying tickets to the National Air and Space Museum’s spectacular IMAX films at the hotel’s front desk—also the place to arrange for trolley tours that pick up guests in front of the hotel and take them to Washington’s major monuments and other sights.
