Courtyard by Marriott DC Convention Center - Property information

What to expect: The ornate granite façade of this imposing building (built in 1891) suggests that this is not an ordinary value-priced business hotel. Inside, the lobby hints at Jazz-Age opulence with colorful murals of men in wide-shouldered suits holding money bags. Guestrooms are more subdued, offering a clean and comfortable stay without a lot of frills.
• Amenity highlights: The unique fitness center is set in the bank's old accounting department and boasts the original floor tiles and plaster vaulting on the ceiling, in addition to cardiovascular and weight machines and a small lap pool with hot tub. Additionally, the hotel's Courtyard Café still has the massive steel door that led to the bank's safe-deposit vault.
• Insider tip: The International Spy Museum, which opened in the summer of 2002 to large crowds eager to see artifacts from centuries of espionage, is just across the street from the hotel. Hotel guests can avoid the long lines and purchase tickets to the museum at the hotel's front desk.
