Cost Insights
Washington, D.C. is a high-cost destination, especially near the National Mall or Convention Center. Hotels often range from $150–250 USD per night, though budget chains and suburban stays can be found under $120. Dining is diverse but pricey—expect $15–30 for casual meals, and $40+ for sit-down dinners. Metro transport is reliable and affordable, and many top-tier attractions—Smithsonian museums, monuments, and memorials—are free. While the sightseeing value is exceptional, accommodation and dining costs make D.C. one of the pricier HYROX cities in North America.
