About Hotel Nell - Union Market
Nearly a century after a seed factory took up residence in an industrial building in Washington’s Union Market district, the landmark was reborn as the stylish Hotel Nell. A connection to the past is an essential part of this boutique hotel’s ethos: it’s named after Nell Bolgiano, matriarch of the Bolgiano Seed Company. A horticultural theme endures, with lush shades of green enlivening the lofty interiors and live foliage framing the Treehouse bar on the uppermost level. Sustainability matters too, naturally — a nearby farmers market provides tomatoes and berries for the breakfast menu, and green roofs help keep the building cool in summer. Rooms are modern and cozy with exposed beams, minimalist décor, and colorful pieces by local artists.
