"Perched high above Hotel Washington, Vue offers priceless views of the White House and monuments. Naturally, it throws an epic Fourth of July watch party dubbed “Red White and Vue.“ Year-long rooftop eats include braised beef short ribs, seafood linguine, and mid-Atlantic fare. Scenic cocktails here aren’t cheap (starting at $25) and include an aptly named “Tourist Trap” built with local amaro." - Tierney Plumb
"In 2023, Hotel Washington reclaimed the name that graced the property when it first opened its storied doors in 1917 as part of a property-wide rebrand. An updated menu followed suit, but the Instagram-worthy views of the White House and D.C.’s finest monuments are still guaranteed in this all-weather favorite. Reservations are available on OpenTable." - Tierney Plumb
"Without overstating the obvious, you come to Vue for the view. Formerly known as POV Rooftop, the downtown restaurant and bar at the Hotel Washington has some of the best aerial looks of the city. Stare at your date—or the monuments, we’re not judging—while eating citrusy cuts of ceviche and a buttery sea bass. Be sure to make reservations beforehand (a few days before on weekends, day-of on weekdays) to snag seats by the window overlooking the city. " - omnia saed, tristiana hinton
