Two Words:

Rooftop. Pool.

Rooftop pool season has officially returned. The pool is now open daily for sunny swims, skyline views, and summer lounging above the city.

Checking out ART DC for the rooftop bar experience?

Make a splash at the rooftop pool at Arlo Washington DC. Whether you’re cooling off with a morning dip or lounging all afternoon, the pool is open daily from 10am to 8pm (hours may vary).

Bar and food service begins at 11am, so you can sip and snack poolside all day, simply order using the QR codes on the side tables.

All registered guests have access to the pool deck via room key, no reservations needed. Seating is first come, first served.
