New Year in the New Heart of D.C. Activity Guide JA N UA R Y 20 24
JANUARY ACTIVITIES
Enhancing luxury in the nation’s capital In late 2022, we brought our welcoming and diverse style of luxury hospitality to the new heart of the nation’s capital. Now, after a diligent planning period, we are undergoing an enhancement project that will showcase a brighter and more residential design, and include striking gathering spaces, a new restaurant by acclaimed Chef Kwame Onwuachi, an expanded two-story spa and modernly refreshed guest suites. While this work takes place, we are committed to providing our guests with an exemplary level of service and a highly convenient base from which to explore and enjoy Washington, D.C. Our enhancement work is scheduled to conclude in Spring 2024 and will be undertaken in a way to minimize impact to the guest experience. For more information, visit salamanderdc.com/enhancements
