NEW YORK, NY – May 5, 2022 – Selina , the fast-growing lifestyle and experiential hospitality brand targeting Millennial and Gen Z travelers, is gearing up to open its seventh U.S.-based hotel property in Washington D.C.’s blossoming Union Market neighborhood on June 1, 2022, expanding its global portfolio to over 150 open and secured properties. Designed for digital nomads and modern travelers, Selina offers guests alternative ways to stay, play and work at their unique destinations around the world. Selina Union Market will be the brand’s signature U.S. property, featuring all of the unique elements and product offerings that makes Selina one of today’s most dynamic and forward-thinking hospitality brands.
A collaborative space for diverse communities to congregate, Selina Union Market’s décor is modern industrial, using the space’s history as a former seed factory and antiques shop to inspire interior design elements. Outfitted with an earth-tone color scheme and furnished with upcycled furniture, the hotel is outdoorsy, artistic, and epicurean. Working with modern artists, the courtyard displays a colorful, four-story custom mural by Stencil Network and Sergio Stuff. Original screened artworks from D.C. artists, Veronica Barker-Barzel and Victory Dance Creative, cover the walls showcasing whimsical and creative displays throughout the property.
Selina Union Market will house 106 rooms of mixed accommodations, including suites, standard rooms, micro bedrooms, and shared-style accommodations. Each space allows guests to personalize their stay based on privacy preference, comfort, and budget – a unique lodging experience the average hotel does not offer. The property will also include multiple open floor workspaces and private meeting rooms, an all-day restaurant, four rentable artist studios, a cinema room, a common kitchen, an onsite wellness studio, and an expansive rooftop with stunning D.C. views and amazing cocktails.
The hotel plans to work with a variety of local partners to bring exciting program offerings to guests and Washingtonians alike, including pop-up food and beverage shops, wellness classes, movie nights, comedy shows, professional talks, access to tours with local distilleries and museums, dance classes, rooftop parties and more.
As a brand focused on supporting local communities, Selina Union Market aims to be an attractive new hang out spot for DMV area residents and visitors. Introductory room rates will vary depending on seasonality and start from $500 per night for a private loft, $200 per night for a standard room, and $50 per night for a bed in one of the shared-style rooms.
