Hotel Zena Washington DC sits in Embassy Row, one of those discreet four-star additions that travellers tend to bookmark before the rest of the city catches on.

Reputation has held up across enough stays to mean something. Expect to pay something in the region of €195 a night, a middle-of-the-road entry on the board, especially when stacked against nearby alternatives. Whether Hotel Zena Washington DC is the right fit depends on the trip, but it earns a place on the comparison shortlist for Washington, D.C. more often than not.
