Local Resources Guide Where Is the Conference Hotel? the Washington Marriott Wardman Park Is Located at 2660 Woodley Rd NW, Washington, DC Local Resources Guide Where is the Conference Hotel? The Washington Marriott Wardman Park is located at 2660 Woodley Rd NW, Washington, DC. Make sure to venture outside the immediate area. With Cleveland Park to the north, Adams Morgan to the east, and Dupont to the south—walking 20 minutes in any direction offers countless options for food, drinks and shopping. Transportation: General Information Metro: The Metrorail service will get you close to many of your destinations, with just a short walk to get where you want to go. The Metrorail system has six color- coded lines (see Metro Map on page 6). The direction of your train is determined by the last stop in the direction you are traveling. The stations where two or more Metrorail lines cross are called “transfer points.” Signs in the station will direct you to your train. Fares are higher during peak hours (weekdays, 5-9:30 a.m. and 3-7 p.m.). The hotel is just a 5-minute walk from the Woodley Park-Zoo Station (Red Line). You can read more about the Metrorail system here: https://washington.org/navigating-dc-metro Tip: When riding the escalator, stand to your right, walk to your left. Tip: No eating or drinking on the metro. Tip: If you get on your train the wrong way, simply get off at the next stop. At larger stations, you will need to take the escalator to cross to the other side of the tracks. To take the metro or bus, purchase a SmarTrip card at a Metrorail Fare Card Vending Machine. Load a designated amount on your SmarTrip card and tap your card at the gate. The fare card machines provide information on the cost from your station to your destination. Peak hours: fares usually range from $2.25 to $6 per trip. Off-peak hours: typically from $1.85 to $3.85. Bus Service: Use a SmarTrip card or cash on a Metrobus. Fares for regular routes are $2.00. Seniors and persons with disabilities ride for $1.00 for regular routes. You must have exact change. Have your pass, transfer or exact fare ready when you board. DC Circulator: The DC Circulator1 offers bus service between several very popular neighborhoods. The Green Route stops right outside the Woodley Park-Zoo (metro Red Line) and at Calvert St and Lanier Pl NW in Adams Morgan, and the McPherson Square Metro Station on the Blue and Orange Lines. The Blue Route serves Dupont Circle and Georgetown in DC, and Rosslyn across the Potomac River in Arlington, Virginia. Capital Bikeshare: Interested in seeing DC on two wheels? Capital Bikeshare has over 350 stations across DC, Maryland and Virginia. Rent a bike from one station and drop it off at any of the other designated stations. One ride costs $2, a 24-hour pass costs $8, and a 3-day pass runs $17. The closet bike station is located at Calvert St and Woodley Pl NW (just a 7-minute walk from the hotel). Navigate to this site to join: 1 http://www.dccirculator.com/ 1 DC Local Resources Guide Rev Sept 2017 https://www.capitalbikeshare.com/pricing. Our interactive map2 includes a bike route from the hotel to the National Mall, where you can visit monuments and museums. Taxi and Ridesharing: You can hail a cab from most places around the city, but you can also download the DC Taxi app. The app allows you to choose from regular, large, or wheel-chair accessible vehicles. Taxi fare is on a meter system with the fee determined by the length of trip, and most taxis accept credit cards. Get a taxi by standing at the side of the street and wave your hand! The city is also served by private ridesharing companies, Uber, Lyft and Via. These apps allow you to request a car and payment is made through the credit card on your account. Getting to / from the hotel From Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA): Metro will take you about 40 minutes. Take the Yellow Line (toward Greenbelt, Mt Vernon Sq or Fort Totten), get off at the Chinatown-Gallery Place Station, and transfer to the Red Line (toward Grosvesnor or Shady Grove); OR take the Blue line (toward Largo Town Center), get off at the Metro Center Station, and transfer to the Red Line (toward Grosvesnor or Shady Grove). A taxi, Uber or Lyft to the hotel will usually cost $19-$25 (and typically take 20-25 minutes, depending on traffic). Look for signs when you leave baggage claim. Shuttle:3 Check the listing for available shuttles, reservation information, and schedules. Dulles International Airport (IAD): Metro Silver Line does not yet extend all the way to Dulles. To take metro, you will need to take the Silver Line Express bus to the Wiehle-Reston East Metrorail station (15 minute trip, cost is $5 cash or credit, no SmarTrip card). Then, transfer to the Red Line at Metro Center in the direction of Shady Grove. Shuttle:4 The shared shuttle is an easier way to get from Dulles Airport to the Marriott Wardman. The cost is $30 one way plus gratuity/tip. Taxi: Uber and Lyft usually cost $45, but check to see if surge pricing is in effect. Washington Flyer Taxi service is available. Follow signs to the taxi queue. It will cost about $60 (not including tip) to take a taxi from Dulles International Airport to the Marriott Wardman. Thurgood Marshall Baltimore Washington International Airport (BWI): BWI is the furthest of the three airports from the Marriott Wardman, but often has very low airfares. An Uber or Lyft typically costs $60 one way, but check to see if surge pricing is in effect. We do not recommend taking a regular taxi since fares can cost upwards of $100 or more one way. Shuttle:5 A shared van to the hotel will cost about $48. The shuttle services have desks inside the terminal. Follow the signs to ground transportation. Amtrak/MARC Rail:6 Trains are on fixed schedules. MARC is a commuter train that might work out if you are ready to travel to DC during rush hour Monday to Friday (early morning or afternoon). You can take a shuttle from the airport to the train station. Check the websites for more information. Metro: Metro offers BWI Express Metrobus service between BWI and the Greenbelt metro station. The BWI Express/B30 service runs every 2 https://goo.gl/GCyKgA 3 http://www.metwashairports.com/reagan/1179.htm 4 http://www.metwashairports.com/dulles/793.htm 5 http://www.bwiairport.com/en/travel/ground-transportation 6 http://www.bwiairport.com/en/travel/ground-transportation/trans/amtrak, or http://www.bwiairport.com/en/travel/ground-transportation/trans/marc 2 DC Local Resources Guide Rev Sept 2017 60 minutes (Monday-Friday, 6:30am-9:33pm) to the Greenbelt Metro Station, which is located on the Green Line of the Washington Metro system. After arriving to Greenbelt, take the train to Gallery Place-Chinatown Station to transfer to the Red line in the direction of Shady Grove.
