The historic Watergate Hotel and its sleek, sophisticated style offers private event bookings at its featured spaces, Kingbird, The Next Whiskey Bar, and Top of the Gate. The first, Kingbird, named after the dapper Eastern Kingbird with its suit-like getup that inspired a grey monochromatic scheme with bold scarlet accents, echoes the bent metal design of the Watergate’s dashing interior—neat, elegant, and debonair. The Next Whiskey Bar is a stylish high-end tasting room for a carefully curated selection of Scotch and American craft whiskies. If the weather permits, guests may also step out on the terrace to enjoy a cigar handpicked by the Watergate’s team of experts from their rotating selection, or they may bring their own. Finally, the Top of the Gate space is an elegant rooftop bar and lounge that offers delectable libations and boasts uninterrupted views of the Potomac, the Washington Monument, and the DC skyline.
