The Best Hotel Rooftop Bars in Washington D.C.
Get a different perspective on the nation’s capital from these swish Washington D.C. hotel rooftop bars. The views alone are worth the price of your drink.
Rosewood Washington DC
Why it made the list
The seasonal rooftop lounge has plenty of seating to relax, sip artisan cocktails, and take in the dramatic city views. The indoor-outdoor infinite pool here (for guests only) feels utterly indulgent; it’s more for cooling off and getting refreshed than swimming, and we’re perfectly fine with that.
The Graham Georgetown
Why it made the list
The enormous, seasonal, Georgetown-chic Observatory has overstuffed sofas and chairs, handcrafted cocktails, and astounding views over historic rooftops. Watch for special events, including a winter wonderland, whiskey-and-cigar gatherings, and specialty themed daytime parties.
Embassy Suites Washington, D.C
Why it made the list
The seasonal Rooftop bar and heated saltwater pool is an adult playground unto itself, with a grill, colorful daybeds and couches (available for rent), and cabanas. Oh, and in summer there’s spin classes in the pool, sunrise yoga, silent disco, and a liquid Sunday brunch.
The Kimpton Donovan
Why it made the list
Hotel Donovan’s DNV Rooftop Lounge serves up Japanese street food and Asian-inspired cocktails with its breathtaking views over Thomas Circle in the heart of DC. A seasonal pool is open in warmer months.
