Kellogg Conference Hotel

Historic Calm Near the Heart of the Action

Modern convenience meets historic charm at the Kellogg Conference Hotel, located on the serene 99-acre campus of Gallaudet University. This unique hotel blends early 1800s architecture with a peaceful, academic setting—perfect for travelers who want a quiet home base close to downtown Washington, DC. Just minutes from Union Station, you're a quick ride away from Capitol Hill, Georgetown nightlife, and the city's biggest music venues.

Why Concert-goers love it

The hotel’s proximity to Union Station—less than a 10-minute drive—makes getting to and from concerts a breeze, whether you're heading to a major arena or an intimate club. After the show, return to a quiet, secure area ideal for winding down. While check-in begins at 4:00 PM, the front desk is helpful with storing luggage or early arrivals, and check-out at 11:00 AM gives you a bit of breathing room the next morning. The peaceful campus setting also means low noise levels—a major plus after a loud night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends attending gigs together
• Solo travelers seeing a bucket-list artist
• Couples planning a concert-filled weekend
• Fans who want a quiet place to recharge after the show
• Budget-conscious music lovers looking for value and charm

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant operating late into the night, the hotel is close to Union Market and H Street NE, both packed with walkable dining options and bars. The hotel offers breakfast in the morning—perfect if you're waking up late after a gig. Room service options are limited, so it's best to grab a bite before heading in for the night.

Nightlife Options

You're just a short ride from the vibrant nightlife of H Street Corridor and Georgetown, where you’ll find everything from laid-back lounges to bustling nightclubs. While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music or a bar, the surrounding neighborhoods are full of local flavor and great post-show hangouts.

What People Say

Guests love the peaceful atmosphere and historic surroundings, noting that the location feels secure and quiet. Many appreciate the easy access to downtown and Union Station, and reviewers often highlight how clean and spacious the rooms are. The tree-lined campus also earns praise for its scenic beauty—unexpected in such a central location.

Areas for Improvement

Some travelers mention that the hotel doesn’t have many dining options on-site, especially late at night. Others note that while it’s close to downtown, you’ll likely rely on taxis or rideshares to get to venues. A few guests also found the decor a bit dated, but most agree the comfort and cleanliness make up for it.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a quiet, comfortable, and affordable stay just minutes from DC’s major concert venues, Kellogg Conference Hotel is a relaxing retreat with character.
