    Great place to keep our bags while we went sightseeing. So helpful and nice. I realized I’d stayed at this hotel 12 years ago and liked it then. When we came back, front desk person got our bags, let us use the restroom, get some water and the doorman got us a taxi to the airport. Very easy 
  • Jennifer25 days ago in Washington D.C.
    We left our backpack of food and drinks at the stashpoint due to being unable to take with us on the Capitol building tour. It was a couple blocks away, not a bad walk at all. There are benches across the street so we could sit and eat lunch there. Worked well for us.

  • Pamela2 months ago in Washington D.C.
    The location had friendly staff and our bags were stored in a locked room. They offered us use of their lounge which was nearby and since it was a hot day, we cooled off there for while before getting a few extra hours of sightseeing. Very positive experience.

  • Albert3 months ago in Washington D.C.
    This is a major chain hotel and therefore the service and security is as you would expect. Bags are stored in a locked storage room right off the lobby. We had no issues. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

  • Allyson3 months ago in Washington D.C.
    Staff were great! Able to use the bathroom and get some complimentary water and coffee in the lobby. Easy walk to metro.
  • Kelly3 months ago in Washington D.C.
    All I had to do was show confirmation email. They took my bag and gave me a ticket. They make sure I snapped so picture incase I lost the paper ticket. And I was on my way. Pick up is just as fast. Second time using this location very convenient.

Bag-free visits to the National Mall and beyond

The National Museum of Natural History has no coat, bag or locker storage, and asks visitors to avoid large bags, backpacks and suitcases. Luggage storage in Washington D.C. keeps those items outside the museum rather than relying on facilities that are not available.

The National Museum of Asian Art prohibits bags larger than 17 by 26 inches. The National Museum of American History has only a limited number of lockers, offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

Opening hours, bag sizes and how to reserve a spot

Stasher has storage in Washington D.C., with 8 points staying open late and 2 operating 24/7. That gives late-opening options for evening events and round-the-clock options around a red-eye flight. Stasher imposes no bag size or weight limits, which suits an oversized suitcase that a museum cloakroom might refuse. Reservations are completed online. The booking places the bag with a trusted local shop or hotel, or in a self-service smart locker, where it stays safely out of sight until collection. This covers both timing and luggage-size concerns: late opening for evening or overnight schedules, plus storage for bags that do not fit a cloakroom’s limits.
