Top of the Gate at The Watergate Hotel

We are open for the season as of April 2021.

The energetic and sophisticated rooftop bar and lounge at The Watergate Hotel boasts commanding 360-degree views of the Kennedy Center, the Potomac River, the Key and Arlington bridges, the Washington Monument and the rest of the DC skyline. It is the perfect place for an after-work cocktail or the season’s most talked-about event.

No reservations are required. However, we are now taking a limited amount of online reservations for a max of 10 people. Reservations can be automatically cancelled due to inclement weather or events (without charge). If we close for the day for any reason, all reservations will automatically be cancelled, and an email will be sent to alert you.

Our staff is wearing masks to serve and we ask that all guests wear masks for entry and in public areas. Masks are not required while seated. Thank you!
