The Mayflower Hotel

The Mayflower Hotel stands on Connecticut Avenue NW between Farragut Square and Dupont Circle, a few blocks north of the White House. This central address places guests in the heart of downtown Washington, with K Street’s office corridor, 17th Street dining, and the National Geographic Museum all within a short walk. Metro access is close by at Farragut North for the Red Line and Farragut West for the Blue, Orange, and Silver Lines, which simplifies movement to Union Station, Capitol Hill, and Reagan National Airport.

Arrivals by car use Massachusetts Avenue, K Street, or 16th Street to reach the hotel, with garage valet available on site. The DC Circulator and multiple Metrobus routes run along K Street and Connecticut Avenue for quick cross town trips. The neighborhood’s flat blocks and broad sidewalks make it easy to move between museums, restaurants, and downtown venues on foot, and Capital Bikeshare stations are dotted around the circle for short rides.

Opened in 1925 and part of Marriott’s Autograph Collection, the property is a local landmark known for grand public spaces, marble details, and classic ballrooms. Interiors blend historic architecture with contemporary finishes, and many rooms frame city views toward the avenues. The hotel’s scale supports major events, while the lobby and ground floor lounges work well for informal meetings and coffee breaks.
