What Our Guests Are Saying

Group from TN, 2023

“We had a wonderful stay, and the brownies were such a nice touch. They were gone the first night. For many in our group, this was their first time visiting D.C. or any big city. I think we got a lot out of it, and even though we didn’t engage in any type of service work, our purpose was to think about how our faith intersects with citizenship and what it means to seek justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God as citizens of the United States. I think that’s right in line with the missions of social justice, peacemaking, and interfaith dialogue of the WSC. I’m glad that we could share in this ministry, and it was perfect for our group.”

Youth Group, 2023

“Staying at the Washington Seminar Center was so convenient and affordable for our bi-annual group trip to the Washington Cathedral. During our stay, we had access to a full kitchen, full baths, games, WiFi and felt safe. This location allowed our group to park at the property. Huge plus in DC! This location allowed us to walk to the Capitol, nearby restaurants and even to the farmer's market early Sunday morning! Emmanuel Episcopal Church from Southern Pines, NC had a great stay and would recommend this Center for youth groups etc.”

Church Group from the Midwest, 2022

“We had a great stay at the Washington Seminar Center. With a youth group and chaperones, we enjoyed preparing several dinners and the hostel-like accommodations. The location was unbeatable for a group our size (~20), on a budget, with an active DC itinerary.”

“Seminar center was a great space to bring our group of teens to experience living in the city. The living and meeting space provided everything we needed to have a successful Urban Immersion Experience. Will definitely return.”
