The Spotlight on Riggs Washington DC

Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort Near DC's Music Scene

Modern, elegant, and full of character, Riggs Washington DC blends historic charm with contemporary style. Housed in the former Riggs National Bank, this boutique hotel sits at the heart of Penn Quarter—just a 5-minute walk from Gallery Place–Chinatown Metro Station and steps from many of Washington’s top concert venues. With sleek rooms offering city views and thoughtful amenities like free WiFi and Smart TVs, this is a refined home base for your night out on the town.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just minutes from major venues, and the nearby Metro makes late-night travel easy—even after an encore. The vibe is upscale but not stuffy, with soundproofed rooms that offer a peaceful place to crash after the show. Check-in starts at 4:00 PM, and checkout isn’t until noon, giving you more time to recover after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish pre-show spot
  • Solo travelers planning a big night out
  • Couples turning a concert into a weekend getaway
  • Fans who value a quiet, upscale recovery space
  • Budget-conscious fans who want value without sacrificing style

Food and Drink Options

After the show, head to Silver Lyan, the hotel’s cocktail bar located in a transformed bank vault—perfect for a nightcap with flair. Café Riggs serves elevated American cuisine and is ideal for a post-concert bite or a late breakfast the next morning. While 24/7 room service isn't available, early morning and late evening dining options are offered, and you’re steps from plenty of nearby restaurants.

Nightlife Options

Silver Lyan offers a moody, mixology-focused experience without leaving the building. Step outside and you’ll find yourself within walking distance of cool bars, lounges, and late-night spots in Penn Quarter and Chinatown. Whether you want to keep the night going or wind down, the choices are all nearby.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s unique design and top-notch service. Many highlight its convenient location for concerts and events, as well as the cozy beds, clean modern rooms, and excellent cocktails downstairs. The historic setting adds an extra layer of charm that music fans love to explore between sets.

Areas for Improvement

While the property is undeniably stylish, some guests mention that the rooms can be on the smaller side. Parking is valet-only, which adds to the cost, so public transit or rideshare might be the better option—especially after a show.

The Bottom Line

With its unbeatable location, historic charm, and nightlife-ready vibe, Riggs Washington DC is a classy, convenient choice for concert-goers looking to make a night of it.

Liked: Turns out, the hotel was much preferable to the apartment building we went to afterward. Everything at the Riggs was furnished or attended to almost immediately, whereas in the nearby apartments, there’s no one to help you find your way, nor will there be anyone to petition when you find there are no dishes, no towels, no toilet paper, etc. Stay completely at your own risk of discomfort for the same price or more as the rate for the Riggs. Might as well stay in the superior comfort of the Riggs.
Disliked: Technology is annoying to old people, and since it wasn’t much required, I was glad, but maybe was required to make the elevators go, I dunno. There were always many lovely people around to fix it tho, so it was fine. I suspect this is a problem only for me.

A wonderful stay!

Liked: A truly wonderful stay! Staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, room was clean, comfortable, and quiet, location is ideal for visiting the sites, and the restaurant was great. We hadn’t planned on eating there and ended up going 3 times during our stay because the food, drinks, and ambience were so excellent. We also enjoyed the Silver Lyan cocktail bar in the hotel. Minor improvements would be better bathroom lighting for doing makeup, more counter space and outlets in bathroom, and upgraded mattress and pillows. But it was such a wonderful stay, and we would love to be back!
