A new boutique hotel is set to open in the heart of historic Georgetown this month. The Canal House of Georgetown, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel, will open its doors at 1023 31st Street NW, just steps from the historic Chesapeake and Ohio Canal.
The hotel will feature 107 guest rooms, including specialty suites, terrace rooms and townhouses. Designed to be a social hub, the property has common spaces, such as a library lounge, private courtyard and a lobby.
Dining options at the Canal House of Georgetown will include the C&O Lounge, a restaurant featuring a menu inspired by local ingredients and flavors. Guests can also access a fitness center.

“I’m thrilled to be opening the Canal House of Georgetown. This vibrant neighborhood, with its rich history and unique charm, is the perfect setting for an unforgettable guest experience,” said General Manager Mark Namdar. “We can’t wait to welcome visitors from around the world to a place that blends timeless elegance with modern comfort. Georgetown’s energy, culture and beauty are all woven into the very fabric of this property, and we’re excited to share it with everyone.”
The hotel will participate in Marriott Bonvoy, Marriott International’s loyalty program.
The Tribute Portfolio currently consists of more than 125 independent hotels across around 30 countries. From boutique resorts like Ermita in Cartagena and urban hotels such as The Vagabond Club in Singapore; to hotels in indie-spirited locales like Bellyard in Atlanta and Hotel Riomar in Ibiza, the collection celebrates individuality of each hotel.
