The Wharf DC

Welcome to the new heart of Washington, D.C.

Activities & Attractions

At Salamander DC, we redefine elegance. Poised gracefully between The National Mall and The
Wharf, our oasis of urban sophistication awaits your discovery. The hotel is steps away from
cherished national monuments, a testament to your proximity to history. Home to the
renowned Salamander Spa, you will find a sanctuary of rejuvenation where time slows down,
and tranquility embraces you. Whether your day is filled with exploration or meetings of
importance, a refreshing dip in our indoor pool will revitalize your spirit. For those who seek to
uncover the city's gems at their own pace, our cruiser bikes and Gem Car stand ready to escort
you on a Salamander-style journey through the vibrant district.
