Seeking an urban oasis in the nation’s capital? While Washington, DC is known for its monuments and museums, there’s a lesser-known luxury that sets certain hotels apart: the year-round indoor pool. As a travel advisor who’s personally vetted these properties, I’m pulling back the curtain on the capital’s indoor pools – where the water’s always warm, even when the Potomac freezes. Let’s explore these year-round swimming sanctuaries that make DC winters a little more bearable and summer heat waves thoroughly enjoyable. If you want to book a staycation at any of these properties or just talk about your next vacation or trip idea, you can reach out to me by email, on Instagram and visit my new website. From the historic West End to the vibrant Waterfront, we’ve dived deep into DC’s hotel scene to surface the properties that offer more than just a place to rest your head.
Salamander DC (formerly Mandarin Oriental, Washington DC)
Ritz-Carlton Pentagon City (technically Arlington but metro-accessible)
