Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center Review

Guests at the 2,000-room larger-than-life Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center can dine, shop, get pampered, and even go clubbing without ever leaving the property, which anchors the National Harbor waterfront. About a 25-minute ride to the National Mall, the Gaylord is shaping up to be a fun alternative for the D.C.-bound who don't mind commuting to museums and monuments. Room balconies opening onto the 230-foot-high glass atrium are a good place to watch the nightly dancing fountain show in the massive lobby below.
