Riggs Washington DC sits on the iconic downtown corner of Penn Quarter’s 9th and F Street in a historic building once home to Riggs National Bank. Each of the Hotel’s 181 guest rooms offers a playful nod to the building’s legacy. Riggs is home to the all-occasion European brasserie-inspired restaurant Café Riggs, as well as Silver Lyan – a subterranean bar from the internationally acclaimed Ryan Chetiyawardana, also known as Mr Lyan.

You're the first face guests see and the quiet force that keeps service flowing. At Café Riggs, our grand American brasserie beneath soaring marble columns, the Lead Host shapes the entire dining experience from the moment someone walks through the door.
