The Newly Constructed Hotel Joins Curio Collection by Hilton to Bring Culinary Offerings by Michelin-Starred Chef Nicholas Stefanelli, Artful Design, an Energetic Rooftop Bar Space, and Sophisticated Gathering Options to NoMa.

The highly anticipated Washington, D.C. lifestyle destination, The Morrow Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton, officially opens its doors today. The hotel acts as an anchor tenant for the neighborhood, bringing artfully designed accommodations, dining by Michelin-starred Chef Nicholas Stefanelli, nearly 12,000 square feet of meetings and events space and unparalleled service to the heart of NoMa, one of the city's fastest-growing creative districts.

Brought to life by Trammell Crow Company and MetLife Investment Management, The Morrow provides one of the area's first ever truly elevated hospitality offerings. This opening marks a new era for NoMa's burgeoning 3rd Street District, an exciting hub of culture, culinary delights, and destination-driven experiences and offerings for locals and guests alike. Rising 12 stories above the neighborhood's tree-lined, walkable neighborhood streets boasting buzzy shops and storefronts, such as Red Bear Brewing Co., REI, and CycleBar, the newly constructed hotel becomes a crossroads of socialization in an energetic area of the city that is known for its rich industrial history and artistic innovation.

THE NOMA NEIGHBORHOOD

The lively and creative NoMa neighborhood is projected to see substantial growth over the next several years with the addition of Tik-Tok's local headquarters. NoMa's 35 blocks include 14.3 million square feet of office space, nearly 8,300 residential units, more than 545,000 square feet of neighborhood-serving retail, and millions of square feet of ongoing construction projects, new businesses and more.

The Morrow Hotel, part of the new 3rd Street District development, is ideally situated at the nexus of NoMa, Union Market and H Street, with easy access to the NoMa-Gallaudet U Metro and Union Station. The hotel serves as a central gathering spot in this energetic neighborhood that embodies the spirit of an urban village with a dynamic mix of hotel, residential, food and beverage, and retail destinations along pedestrian-friendly streets lined with spaces for outdoor gatherings. The hotel's architecture responds to the urban conditions with an open and accessible site that draws energy from the active street life, integrating guests and community through its indoor and outdoor spaces.

The ground floor welcomes guests and passers-by to gather and discover The Morrow Hotel while enjoying house-made kombucha and fresh juices in the morning and champagne and cocktails in the evening from the lobby beverage cart.

​​A crisp breeze on the rooftop, the lush greenery on the terrace, a flash of sunlight in the lobby—these small moments, coupled with daily rituals like sunrise yoga, daily elixirs, curated pillow menus and elevated amenities for pets, allow for a momentary pause and ground guests in a fresh perspective. At The Morrow Hotel, guests are inspired to use today to create a greater tomorrow.

DINING

The hotel's arrival brings four new food and beverage venues by Michelin-starred Executive Chef Nicholas Stefanelli. Renown for D.C. hot spots Masseria, Philotimo and Officina, Stefanelli is influenced by his local roots in conjunction with his Greek and Italian culinary heritage.
