Washington D.C. is one of the most picturesque spots in the entire country. Situated on the banks of the Potomac River and with so many things to see and do, it's difficult to see it all, but you can be sure that a Best Western Hotel is in the middle of it all.

You can start your tour with a visit to the Smithsonian Museum one of the largest museums in the world, you can see the countries national treasures and a range of subjects exhibits from art to space exploration.


The National Mall is where you tour the Lincoln Memorial and Washington Monuments. As well as memorials for the servicemen and servicewomen who gave their lives fighting for our country in war.
Touring the U.S. Capitol Building, and the U.S. Supreme Court is easier than you think, especially when you're staying at a Best Western in historic Georgetown. Tours of the State Capitol and the Supreme Court are held daily and tickets can be purchased on-line.

A must-see attraction in Washington D.C. is Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington. The estate is set along the shores of the Potomac River and is one of the most scenic tours in the area. There are so many sites to visit in Washington D.C. but when you stay at a Best Western Hotel you can be sure you will be well-rested to see them all.

    The Lincoln Memorial is not to be missed both by day and night. When the cherry blossoms are in bloom it is even more lovely.
