WASHINGTON (FOX 5 DC) - One of the District's go-to places for music and food has closed its doors for good.

The Rock & Roll Hotel was a fixture along the H Street Corridor for more than a decade, but on Monday, the hotel says it was forced to close.

The business owners say it faced stiff competition from other music venues, plus a drop in ticket sales and higher costs led to the closing.

Previously booked shows at the venue have been canceled.
