DC Rooftop Decks Worth the Stairs in Winter
Rock & Roll Hotel is one of DC Rooftop Decks Worth the Stairs in Winter.

1. Rock & Roll Hotel

Music Venue · Capitol Hill · 80 tips and reviews

ScoutmobScoutmob: The adventurous owners debuted this rooftop deck in mid-November 2011, where nooks and crannies abound for seating next to their many heaters.

2. DC9 Rooftop Bar

7.0
1938-1940 9th St NW, Washington, D.C.
Bar · U-Street · 8 tips and reviews

ScoutmobScoutmob: A small bar serves up mixed drinks and beer, and the open space looks down on a slew of Ethiopian restaurants while soaking in the noise from Nellie's, next door. Open from 5 p.m. onward.

3. P.O.V. Rooftop Lounge and Terrace

515 15th St NW (at W Hotel), Washington, D.C.
Lounge · Downtown-Penn Quarter-Chinatown · 168 tips and reviews

ScoutmobScoutmob: Winter: it's time for locals to take it back. The view of some of Washington's most noteworthy national landmarks, will remind you why tourists flood here every summer.

4. Lost Society

7.0
2001 14th St NW (at U St NW), Washington, D.C.
Cocktail Bar · U-Street · 89 tips and reviews

ScoutmobScoutmob: This rooftop is a dicey move in the winter. It's cool...literally, so the less hearty may want to wait. Either way, get it on your bucket list: the location and views are hard to beat.
