Arlo Hotels, the trendy independent lifestyle brand known for its unique properties in cities like New York, Chicago, and Miami, is gearing up to make its debut in Washington, D.C. The highly anticipated hotel is set to open its doors on November 18, 2024, right in the heart of downtown D.C. Just steps away from popular destinations such as Penn Quarter, Judiciary Square, and Capitol Hill, this location is perfect for exploring the city.

The new 445-room hotel creatively integrates the district’s oldest surviving apartment building, the historic 1888 Harrison Apartments, with a modern 12-story addition. Recognized for its Romanesque Revival architecture, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.

This popular Great Smoky Mountains trail will be closed for 18 months — where to hike instead
You won't see this Great Smoky Mountains Favorite for another 18 months. Here's why.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Laurel Falls Trail is a popular destination at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Seeing over 300,000 hikers annually, it's one of the park's most iconic trails. While Gatlinburg was largely spared by Hurricane Helene, Laurel Falls Trail has become unsafe due to loose, broken pavement and other safety hazards. This is largely because the trail hasn't been repaved at all since the trail was made in 1963. The National Park Service is committed to the safety of this trail, so the park has funded a rehabilitation project to give Laurel Falls Trail a well-deserved makeover.

This project will be extensive. The National Park Service reports that they will be making huge upgrades to the trailhead parking area, expanding it by about fifty parking spaces and adding a designated pathway with a guardrail to connect pedestrians to the trailhead. They will also be repaving all of the trails and installing new educational signage along the way to provide wayfinding, bear safety, and Leave No Trace guidance.
