The DC Guesthouse is nested into a thriving community in one of the oldest and most historic neighborhoods in the city. Naylor Court is one of the city's few remaining alley blocks that retains its original configuration and much of its historic character. Most of the original wood frame houses built in our neighborhood during the United States' youth were razed after the civil war to make way for brick Victorians with "modern" conveniences, like gas lamps. Behind the mansions and large houses was an alley system with stables and lower-class housing with its own vibrant culture. Most of these structures, though modified a bit over time, are still as they were over 125 years ago. In fact, many have been restored to their Victorian splendor, inside and out. Much of the neighborhood's history has been well documented and there is even a walking tour of the larger Shaw neighborhood, of which we are a part. One of the best parts of visiting DC is experiencing its vibrant culture - filled with a mixture of Southern hospitality, International flare, and multi-cultural soul. The DC GuestHouse is located in the first neighborhood north of Washington's downtown area, home to many museums, monuments, stores, and businesses - all of which is easily reachable by foot. In fact you can see the National Museum of Natural History from the street in front of the DC GuestHouse by looking to the south. The DC GuestHouse is only two blocks to the closest Metro subway station providing quick transportation to most areas of the city. |

The DC GuestHouse is one block from the new Washington DC Convention Center. Many of our guests find the GuestHouse a welcome break from the bustle of their busy conferences. In fact, many businesses book our whole house to serve as their employees base of operations for a conference. Transportation to and from Washington's three surrounding airports can be arranged through Super Shuttle or by taxi. Washington National Airport and Union Station are a short ride to/from the nearby Mt. Vernon/Convention Center Metro subway station. |
