Gaylord National Hotel & Convention Center

Open since April 2008, this first-class destination is located in the new 300-acre waterfront area in National Harbor, MD.  This new city is set along a 1 ¼ mile panoramic stretch of the Potomac River in Prince George’s County, Maryland, just 8 miles from our nation’s capital.

With 2,000 luxurious rooms, including 110 lavish suites, the spectacular 18-story glass atrium welcomes you to the Gaylord National Hotel.  It offers sweeping views of the Potomac River, Washington, D.C. and Old Town Alexandria, while a river meanders through the hotel’s lush, multi-level indoor gardens.

The hotel boasts numerous amazing fine dining restaurants, casual eateries, unique shopping experiences, an indoor pool, and a 20,000-square-foot spa and fitness center. And for late-night excitement, an express elevator speeds you to the two-story rooftop Pose Ultra Lounge, which is the only ultra lounge in the DC area, featuring an exotic Infusion bar and breathtaking views of the nation’s capital from the wraparound terrace.

The hotel is conveniently located between 3 major airports:  Reagan National, Dulles, and BWI.
