Practical tips for hotel guests in Washington
Most Smithsonian museums and all monuments are completely free. DC is one of the best-value destinations in the US for sightseeing.
The Metro is the cleanest, safest subway system in the country. Buy a SmarTrip card and use it for buses too.
Cherry blossom season (late March – mid April) is beautiful but the most expensive and crowded time to visit. Book 3+ months ahead.
Georgetown has great shopping and dining but no Metro station. Walk from Foggy Bottom or take the DC Circulator bus.
Many hotels in DC cater to business travelers, so weekend rates are often much lower than weekday rates.
Security lines at popular monuments (Washington Monument, Capitol) can be long. Book timed-entry tickets online where available.
