The staff at Hotel Zena was the best I’ve ever encountered at a hotel. They went above and beyond to help us and accommodate us throughout our stay. We love the women empowered theme throughout this hotel. My 9 year old son said we weren’t hip enough to stay at this hotel. It’s certainly progressive, and we will stay again and recommend to everyone traveling to DC.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Due to COVID, we did limit high-touch items in our guest rooms that were available upon request. We do hope that you will give us another chance and hope to have you back again.

People were so very friendly and helpful. While there wasn’t housekeeping due to Covid concerns, room needs were accommodated as needed. Great location, so close to everything.
