Darnall Hall

Darnall Hall

Darnall Hall is one of the dormitories housing first-year students at Georgetown University. It opened in 1965 and was renovated in 1996. The building is dedicated to Eleanor Darnall, the mother of Georgetown University founder John Carroll. Upon opening, Darnall Hall was a female-only dormitory.

There are six floors with double-occupancy rooms, two common bathrooms, and a common room with a kitchen. The average room is 16.5 feet by 10.5 feet.

Darnall Hall was the home of one of two cafeterias on campus operated by Marriott International until Darnall Café, known for its milkshake machines, was shut down after the 2004-2005 academic year. Restaurateur C.W. Chon is currently negotiating a lease for the former cafeteria space, which may become a sit-down restaurant, cafeteria, and cocktail lounge.

In addition, the building houses the Office of Affirmative Action Programs, Auxiliary Services, Counseling and Psychiatric Services, GOCard Services, Learning and Disability Services, Off-Campus Housing Resource Services, and the Student Health Center.
