Take it outside
Washington, DC invites outdoor exploration, especially in spring, summer, and fall. Parks, green spaces, terraces of iconic institutions and museums, and the beloved National Mall are serene. The city's many neighborhoods, diverse and bustling with culture and energy, are irresistible for those who enjoy getting a feel for a place by walking, biking, or jogging through its streets.
Whether on foot or using one of our complimentary bicycles, whether walking to a meeting or enjoying one of our chef-made picnics in a nearby park, we encourage you to go out and explore everything the city has to offer. Our Concierge can provide a map with suggestions on where to walk, jog, or ride.
Our picnics are available via the in-room dining menu. Enjoy gourmet light bites and cool beverages from our picnic menu, with the convenience of a sturdy backpack and comfortable picnic blanket.
Our chefs have created a picnic menu that offers a medley of light bites and delectable treats. Flavors range from sweet to savory and are designed to satisfy both hunger and culinary curiosity. Pop on a backpack, borrow one of our bicycles, and head to the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail for a scenic ride along the Potomac.
Or, simply take an early-morning walk to the Washington Monument with our "to go" menu options, watching the city wake up as you eye one of the most resilient, iconic markers of our democracy.
