Washington and related destinations

Between the Lincoln Memorial and the Capitol, the National Mall unfolds like America's front yard, where museums offer everything from moon rocks to Monets for free. The White House tour requires advance planning, but anyone can snap photos from Lafayette Square. Cherry blossoms frame the Tidal Basin each spring, creating a pink canopy that locals celebrate like visiting celebrities. Beyond monuments, areas like Adams Morgan serve Ethiopian feasts and late-night jumbo slices, while U Street's historic jazz clubs still swing nightly. For a perfect evening, catch a sunset from the steps of the Jefferson Memorial, then wander to a Georgetown patio where political gossip flows as freely as the cocktails.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Washington

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Washington is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those looking to experience the city’s rich history and culture, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. This duration allows visitors to explore key landmarks, such as monuments and museums, as well as enjoy cultural attractions, including theatres and art galleries. With careful planning, travellers can find great value for money while discovering Washington’s natural parks and indulging in delightful dining options amidst blooming flowers.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals in Washington, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay updated on flash sales and last-minute promotions, which could help you save. The Smart Shopping feature in the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you make informed choices. By staying vigilant, you’re more likely to learn about available rooms or price drops, making it easier to secure that spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate due to factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your dates could help you save on your stay in a Washington hotel. If you’re seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised touch and occasionally better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your selected dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we may suggest more affordable dates to enhance your chances of securing a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Staying nearer to key attractions or city centres can offer convenience, but it often comes with higher expenses. For more affordable options, consider hotels located in less central areas or neighbourhoods, striking a balance between cost and accessibility to the sites you intend to visit. You might also explore independent hotels situated further afield, as they are usually more likely to be affordable and can provide a more authentic experience.
