From refined interiors and design-forward corners to thoughtful touches like welcome drinks upon arrival, Pendry’s urban oases offer travelers a sophisticated, yet relaxed take on hospitality. The hotel brand is known for creating warm, lively alcoves where guests can mingle (and unwind) after a day of exploring a new city. Our favorite part? Each Pendry is a proud pet-friendly hotel. Read more about the Pendry hotels below, and check out Fora's interview with the Sagamore Pendry Baltimore's General Manager Juan Webster.

Stunning Get-Away Retreats

After opening its inaugural hotel in San Diego in 2017, the Pendry brand continued to expand its destinations, which is great news if you (like us) find yourself daydreaming about a getaway to palm-studded West Hollywood or a slopeside snowcation in Park City. Other destinations in Pendry’s expanding portfolio include Sagamore Pendry Baltimore, Pendry Chicago and the newly opened Pendry Washington, DC, The Wharf.

Set on DC’s trendy waterfront harbor, the hotel's guest rooms have us swooning with their warm aesthetic, floor-to-ceiling windows and luxe marble bathrooms. After a day exploring the nation's capital, guests can unwind with a rooftop cocktail at Moonraker, the hotel’s stylish bar — complete with river views — or indulge in a treatment at the dreamy Spa Pendry. "The Wharf is going to bring this area to the next level, making it the most exciting spot in the city," said Fora Advisor and DC-area local Deb Swacker, who recently visited the newly minted hotel.
