A sense of the place
Why it's in the collection
Because a century-old brick incinerator, chimney intact, became an 86-room Ritz-Carlton between the C&O Canal and the Potomac – four-star standing, with a five-room spa and the river at the door, and we list it at exactly the tier it holds.
- Four-star standing for the hotel, listed here as exactly that, under the Ritz-Carlton flag.
- 3100 South Street NW, on the Georgetown waterfront between the C&O Canal and the Potomac – the old Georgetown incinerator, its 130-foot brick chimney kept as the landmark.
- 86 rooms and suites – the smallest of the three Ritz-Carltons in the collection, against 300 keys in the West End and 398 in Tysons Corner.
- Degrees Bistro, with fire as its theme, and a five-room spa.
The neighborhood

The oldest quarter of the city, with Federal rowhouses, M Street's shops and three of the ten hotels. The C&O Canal and the Potomac lie at the bottom of the hill. One hotel stands at the Pennsylvania Avenue end, one on the canal and one in the old incinerator on the waterfront.
- The C&O Canal towpath and Georgetown Waterfront Park, at the door.
- M Street's shops and cafés, up the hill.
- Key Bridge over the Potomac, a short walk west along the waterfront; the Kennedy Center downstream.
