The Rooftop

I'm once again disappointed in the lack of culture in our city! I have to go to DC/Nova for a good time and some culture. The Rooftop was lively and very diverse! All ages were dancing with each other, there were no issues (except for the music, the DJ's skills were ok). I danced so much my calves hurt for days. It was an exhilarating experience! I believe they prepare foods as well. The parking, (as mostly everything in that area) wasn't too terrible, but I wasn't driving either. If you're looking for a really good time with a friendly crowd, don't take my word for it. See for yourself.

Who knew that Georgetown would have such great rooftop views?Since DC is not necessarily the most vertical city, you wouldn't expect to see much from a rooftop bar scene. However, I was proven wrong this last trip to DC, and had a great time catching up with friends with relaxing views of the Washington Monument right here at The Graham Hotel.We made a reservation for afternoon drinks on a Saturday, but ended up just waltzing in and finding a seat on the backside facing the monuments. Couches and mini tables lined the area so you can feel free to move around as space permits.The view from here was pretty badass......made only better by great company and some good bites. We ordered the Lobster Roll ($15) which came with two, individual sized rolls with plantain chips. The rolls were actually pretty damn good and made for a great summer snack.For sips, we split a Scorpion Bowl ($25) which ended up lasting for nearly three hours! Jaymie S. assured me it was strong, but I had other thoughts. It's so much fun to drink out of a tiki bowl especially in such a Historic city over a great view.We never felt rushed during our stay and ended up hanging out until it was time for dinner. This was a great way to spend an afternoon in DC!

A chic place in Georgetown with a great view. The location and the atmosphere are definitely a great place to grab a drink or two after shopping. However, the place is quite expensive and there's no full service ( at least when I went on a Friday afternoon). Overall it's is a great location and worth a visit.

Drinks are reasonably priced and glad to see they offer bottle and champagne service. A bottle of Veuve Clicquot set me back $140 and drinks were around $14 each. Nice sofas. Wish they had more than one bathroom though! The bartender that served us was real nice and he poured some strong drinks and generous shot pours :)Different views than say POV but great views of the Potomac and Gtown.

This review is long overdue. A group of friends and I managed to make it to the rooftop THE ONE TIME that the weather was PERFECT in July! The Observatory obviously up-charge on everything because of location and view, but I was with a group of friends that I haven't seen very often, and was happy to pay whatever it was we ended up paying.A friend was able to secure a section for us, which was appreciated because we were all able to chill and have fun in our own space and we were able to do it without having to yell over music or other people. All that being said, I'll be back. Definitely not opposed to pregaming here again!

The reason that we were not allowed to go down the emergency stairs was because it was full of boxes, ladders, paint cans, BLOCKING THE STAIRWELL!! Completely breaking the fire code. My experience was awful, the manager was so mean. The reason was because he didn't want me or anyone else to see the stairwell packed with junk.

Amazing views and delicious cocktails.Come dressed to meet their dress code and you won't be disappointed

Stopped in with some girlfriends after a full day of casual shopping, dessert sampling, and wine sipping on a Sunday afternoon. Was REALLY surprised that the rooftop was completely empty (save the bartender and maybe 2-3 other people) - it was a gorgeous day in DC, where was everyone??The entrance is kind of cool - you enter through the hotel lobby and the doorman keys you up to the rooftop bar - so exclusive, right? Well, the view isn't really all that amazing to be honest - I was really expecting... more?

3 1/2 stars. Located in the Graham hotel, this place has a really good rooftop view of Georgetown. The ambiance to me was their best attribute. The Friday night I went though, It was kinda empty. Not sure if it was a slow night. Service and drink prices were pretty standard for DC. I'd say my experience here was pretty decent.

We spent the day shopping in Georgetown and the doorman at The Graham sees us walking and carrying a bunch of bags, and stops us."Have you been to the rooftop Observatory yet?"No, we haven't. Sounds like a perfect way to end the afternoon!The doorman opens the door and gets the elevator for us! He presses "R" and straight to the top! The elevator opens and WHAT A GORGEOUS VIEW!!THE OBSERVATORY AT THE GRAHAMThis is a "See-And-Be-Seen" Destination Rooftop Lounge!The Graham Georgetown Rooftop lounge is the ideal place to watch spectacular sunsets, sip on spirits, and make new friends, whilst lounging on overstuffed sofas, listening to cool beats.From the rooftop, you can see historic Georgetown and D.C. landmarks, like the Kennedy Center, the Washington Monument, and the Arlington, Virginia skyline.THE STORY & SERVICE EXPERIENCEAfter we were seated, the server brought champagne, and we leisurely watched the sunset. The view was INCREDIBLE. We finished drinks and decided to have dinner at The Alex.Make sure to read my review of The Alex.CONCLUSIONOUTSTANDING!! A definite MUST!!4/5 RECOMMENDOF NOTE*Valet Parking.
