Industrial maritime berth
A tailored maritime retreat in Navy Yard, layering mid-century geometry, nautical rope installations, and tactile dark woods.

Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Anacostia Riverwalk Trail and The Yards Park sit just outside, with Nationals Park baseball stadium moments away.
The rooms
Rooms evoke luxury ship cabins with curved dark-oak headboards, fold-down walnut desks, and ripple-textured glass showers mimicking water.

Thompson Bar Room
The lobby bar serves morning coffee before pouring evening wine and cocktails across its marble counter.
Hotel employees speak with hundreds of people some days. A lot of effort goes into even the smallest things that make a hotel stay memorable…
At the table
Surveyor serves regional seafood and American supper classics on the ground floor. Upstairs, the rooftop terrace overlooks the river.
How it began

Built within The Yards waterfront district, the architecture echoes the historic 1799 naval shipyard through factory windows and textured brickwork.
