Just How Convenient Is Our Washington DC National Harbor Hotel?
Let Us Count The Ways…

Let’s see if we can recall all the things that make Aloft Washington National Harbor the most dynamic of Maryland National Harbor hotels to open its doors in recent memory. Located in the hot, new National Harbor waterfront community, a mere ten miles outside the Nation’s Capital, we are perched on the eastern shore of the Potomac River, just south of the Capital Beltway (I-495). All three DC area airports—Reagan National, Dulles, and BWI—can be reached in less than an hour, with Reagan National a seven-mile cab ride away. It’s only a few Metro stops to the Smithsonian, Mall and national monuments. You can cruise into Georgetown or Old Town Alexandria aboard a water taxi. To hit the vibrant shops, dining, and nightlife of the National Harbor, all it takes is a nod in the right direction by the front desk staff and a three-block walk. So, how’d we do?

• Perched on the Potomac River’s eastern shore, overlooking Old Town Alexandria
• Only fifteen minutes from downtown Washington, DC and steps from the sprawling Gaylord National convention center
• In the heart of National Harbor’s scenic marina, offering exhilarating outdoor activities, chic shopping, and vibrant dining and nightlife
• Just seven miles from Reagan National Airport (DCA) and less than an hour from Dulles International Airport (IAD) and Baltimore Washington International Airport (BWI)
