    By its very nature, the small town of National Harbor is a rather quiet place where you can generally find a slower pace of life during your stay here.

The Premier National Harbor House is a great choice for a quiet hotel in this neighborhood. As an added bonus, local bus routes P18, 35, and 35S all offer service from this area to all of the attractions along National Harbor’s waterfront.
