I booked a day room to celebrate the birthday of my daughter. It was wonderful. We had a lovely time. The staff was very attentive. The room was lovely. The location was perfect. The hotel room had unique DC details and views. It was a adorable.

Perfect Princess Birthday 

I was looking forward to visiting DC from New York city. Too bad the weather impeding on our end of summer plans. 

Trip canceled 

Front desk staff was absolutely welcoming. I've been to some hotels and you feel like you're bothering them-not here! Enjoyed the afternoon pretty much alone by the pool and it picked up around 5 PM for their hotel happy hour. Place is super clean and has amazing views. I will be back =]

Peaceful. 

Benny and the entire Zena hospitality team are exceptional. I booked a day pass for me and +1. Upon arrival parking was very easy, an attendant took care of all of the particulars. Benny checked me in and provided us with a room that wasn't bad, but wasn't quite up to par. With a simple request the room was changed, Benny brought up the key, and virtually no time was wasted. The rooftop area was first come first serve on this particular and day and it was perfect. The food options from the rooftop bar as well as the drinks were all refreshing. 

Pro Tip: the water is not heated go ahead and plunge in to alleviate the initial shock. 

The hotel is equipped with blackout curtains, so we were able to catch a quick nap before checking out. Robes and in room amenities were top tier and greatly appreciated. 

Best location and fun lobby, although we didn't spend much time there, as well. 

Great Service + Great Relaxation

Great Experience 

Overall amazing experience! Valet was easy ($27 upto 8hr/$57 after 8hrs) Check in was smooth, Bennie was so kind an made checkin a breeze. The room was fabulous! Very nice size with view and the shower was so different it wrapped around, someone could be in shower and another in bathroom and they wouldn't see you. Pool was so beautiful! They had ice water and glasses available, the dicor Inn view was absolutely breathtaking. There was plenty of seating thatsthe dicor Inn view was absolutely breathtaking. There was plenty of seating. Thats first come first serve outside of the cabana. The staff definitely came to move old towels and place new towels down when gas would leave to make space for new guess. I went during the week in the bar did not open until 1 PM. The bartender was really sweet but the drinks were extremely overpriced and very water down. I was so disappointed (3 drinks $80 with 18% automatic gratuity, and I added gratuity) overall, this was a really great experience! 

Perfect

Firstly, the cabana I reserved for $500+ was not ready upon my arrival (11:30) at the hotel. Not only that but there were other guests occupying it. I had to contact hotel staff after checking in order to get them to clear out and reset the cabana. This was very uncomfortable because the hotel guests were agitated with me and my guests and it made us very uncomfortable. That was not even the most unpleasant aspect of the experience. The cabana was also not as advertised. It was not shaded as noted and it would not have been able to comfortably accommodate the 6 guests it was advertised. There was also no dedicated cabana service and the pool was extremely small and crowded. I myself, didnt even get into the pool. While some of staff attempted to assist in these misgivings overall it was not worthwhile. It probably would have been better and less expensive  to simply  book a room and visit the pool seeing as though the cabana was not actually reserved and ready for me and my guests 

Not worth it 

great stay!

From the valet all the way up to the rooftop was a smooth transition.  Everyone I interacted with was incredibly professional and personable. There were plenty of chairs and beds to lay on and even though it rained briefly (there is a covering), we were able to wait out the storm.  Our bartender was so nice and helped me celebrate my birthday! The bathrooms upstairs were clean.  I would say get there early before the kids wake up and get upstairs to the pool! LOL. 

Fantastic Views and Service

Hotel Zena was perfect for a mom's day out. We checked in, dropped our bags in our dayroom and were able to walk to our fave spot, LeDip! When we got back we changed & headed up to the pool for the afternoon. Hedy's Rooftop Bar was open and the High Noons were flowing (wish they offered buckets, though). Having the dayroom was clutch to be able to shower and get ready before heading out for the night. The check-in at the desk was easy and the staff was so kind and helpful. The hotel is really beautiful, too.

Perfect Daycation!
