Local Community

At Union Market Hotel, our commitment to our vibrant D.C. community is paramount. We proudly collaborate with our neighbors, Small Planes Coffee, just a short 5-minute stroll away, offering the freshest roasted coffee in The District. Additionally, our partnership with Bailwick Clothing, a local gem providing our team with stylish, D.C.-made shirts, allows us to showcase their latest designs right here at the hotel. Beyond these collaborations, we actively engage in community outreach and philanthropic endeavors, forging strong bonds with local organizations to support the well-being of our beloved Washington, D.C.

Sustainability

In line with our strong commitment to environmental sustainability, we wholeheartedly embrace the concept of green roof gardens. These lush and vibrant rooftop gardens contribute to the city's architectural aesthetics and play a pivotal role in enhancing our urban environment. By incorporating green roofs into our structures, we strive to reduce our carbon footprint, mitigate urban heat island effects, and promote biodiversity in our nation's capital. These green oases provide a serene retreat for our guests and serve as a testament to our dedication to a greener and more eco-friendly future for our city and our planet.
