Local Tips
There are three local airports:
- Reagan International Airport (closest and most convenient, just 3 miles away from the Wharf)
- Dulles International Airport (about a 35-minute drive into the city)
- Baltimore/Washington International Airport (about a 40-minute drive into the city, or you can take the train from the airport to Union Station)
The DC Wharf has three hotels, each a short walk to the Dockmaster Building:
- The InterContinental Washington D.C. - The Wharf
- Hyatt House Washington DC / The Wharf
- Canopy by Hilton Washington DC The Wharf
We have a room block at the InterContinental Washington D.C. Click here if you would like to reserve a room.
