HI, RIGGS FRIENDS & FAMILY.
Based on the evolving guidance from the CDC, WHO and local government and health agencies about how we can slow the spread of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19, we’ve made the difficult but appropriate decision to temporarily pause on having guests stay with us.
COVID-19 UPDATE:
Reinvention of an Icon
Riggs Washington DC is a destination for the modern traveler, located in the historic former Riggs National Bank building on the corner of 9th and F Street. Paying homage to the building’s legacy, each of the property’s 181 guest rooms and suites is reminiscent of a private safety deposit box, while serendipitous details throughout the hotel draw on a narrative inspired by the golden age of banking. The heart and soul of the hotel is the ground floor Café Riggs – a modern, all-occasion restaurant in the tradition of the grand brasseries of Europe – as well as a lower level bar housed in the original bank vault from the internationally-acclaimed Mr Lyan team.
Café Riggs
A historic setting where you can make yourself at home, Café Riggs offers a modern take on a traditional European brasserie menu, with a specific focus on plant-based offerings that evolve throughout the day.
