WASHINGTON, D.C. — Hilton Worldwide and Hyatt Hotels Corp. plan to open a dual-branded, 413-room hotel at The Wharf, a mile-long waterfront mixed-use development in Washington, D.C. The brands include a 175-room Canopy by Hilton and a 238-room Hyatt House. The hotel site includes more than 30,000 square feet of street-level retail and restaurant space and two levels of below-grade parking. The asset will be located between Maine Avenue and Wharf Street, adjacent to 7th Street Park. Upon completion in the fall of 2017, the dual hotel will span 300,000 square feet and will include a cafe/bar and other dining options; 1,100-square-foot fitness center; 2,500 square feet of meeting room space; courtyard with outdoor terraces and water features; outdoor pool; and a rooftop bar with views of the Washington Channel. The penthouse will include an additional 10,000-square-foot lounge area with views of the Potomac River. Hoffman-Madison Waterfront is the master developer of The Wharf, and SmithGroup JJR is the architect of the dual-branded hotel property.
