Why it's on the list
Fourteen floors up on the 14th Street corridor, which in Washington counts as altitude, with the city skyline opening out around the deck. Memorial Day to Labor Day, 8am to 8pm, and a day pass can come with a cabana. A real swim by day, Hedy's bar crowd after dark — so take the morning lap and go early.
The stay
Zena is the design statement — a boldly art-forward hotel built around a theme of female empowerment, with a gallery's worth of work in the public spaces and a rooftop that swims by day and becomes Hedy's bar crowd after dark. It's on the 14th Street corridor in Logan Circle, one of DC's best strips for restaurants and nightlife, walkable and lively. At $$$ you're paying for the design and the location as much as the room — the pick if you want personality and a night-out neighborhood, less so if you want a quiet, classic DC stay.
