Cathedral
College
Lodging will be available at the historic
Cathedral College. We are thrilled to
be able to offer housing on the grounds of Washington
National Cathedral this year. Room space is very limited and will be
allocated on a first come first served basis. Please
reserve early!
Cathedral College, formerly known as The College of
Preachers, was established in the 1920s as a center
of study for the Episcopal clergy. Located on the
grounds of Washington National Cathedral, the
"collegiate-gothic" style building provides a
dormitory-like setting which resembles an English boarding school.
The College has, in
the main building and the adjacent guest house, a
total of bed space for 27. The rooms use no keys.
The College is fully air-conditioned. There are no
phones or televisions in the rooms. There are some
rooms with private bath but generally
bathrooms are shared. Cathedral College is a
non-smoking facility and is not fully handicapped
accessible.
Some rooms have one twin bed and
some have two twin beds. Of the rooms with two twin
beds, 2 have a private bath. Three rooms have double
beds, one with a private bath, and another room has
a queen bed. The two suites have a king or queen
sized bed, private bath, a sitting room, and a
telephone. The “Tower” suite – well known by clergy
and conference leaders – has a spectacular view of
the city, especially in winter when there are no
leaves on the trees.
Catered meals will also be
available this year. We urge you to take advantage
of having meals together in the Cathedral College.
There is little time to run off campus to get
something to eat and dining together is a
relaxing social time.
Please see the "fees and details"
page for lodging and meal costs.
