The Mayflower Hotel Autograph Collection

Discover the historic boutique hotel in Washington, D.C., at the Mayflower Hotel, Autograph Collection. A luxury icon in Washington, D.C., with its landscape for nearly a century, the Mayflower Hotel is a destination unlike any other. The Mayflower Hotel is a capital classic, a landmark hotel, and a Washington D.C. original since 1925. The Mayflower Hotel brings elegance, integrity, and contemporary style to its role as the city’s past and present-day social hub. The hotel offers a 24-hour fitness center, inspired dining at the Edgar Bar & Kitchen, and stunning views of Washington, D.C.  As Harry S. Truman said – it is “Washington’s second-best address.”

Hotel Reservations & APPA Cancellation Policy: 

The cut-off date to receive the APPA group rate (plus tax) is January 30, 2026. If rooms remain in the APPA block after the cut-off date, the APPA group rate will be honored. If not, you may be charged a higher rate. The room block may sell out before January 30th, so early reservations are encouraged. For individual reservations, please call (877) 212-5752 or make your reservation onlinehere. The hotel should receive all reservations no later than January 30th.

Canceled reservations that are not resold may become a financial liability for the Association, so please make your reservations thoughtfully. If you require additional assistance with housing, please contact Meeting Services at Meetings@PublicPower.org. 

What if the hotel block is full?

APPA understands members’ frustrations that the Rally room block often sells out very quickly. To address these concerns, we have implemented new policies for large group reservations that we hope will make it easier for members to secure rooms. If you are still unable to get a hotel room, you can add your name to the block's waitlist. Historically, we’ve been able to accommodate most members who join the waitlist. For waitlist and hotel questions, please contact meetings@publicpower.org.
