THE MEZZANINE
The Mezzanine
Nowhere in the LINE Hotel does our former incarnation as a church shine more brightly than on The Mezzanine. Stained glass windows surround vaulted ceilings, and leather, wood, and marble accents create one of the most stunning spaces in Washington, DC.
With over 4,020 square feet to play with, Banneker’s versatility can accommodate upwards of 300 people as a single room, or can be divided into three distinct spaces to provide the ultimate flexibility when creating experiences large or small.
At the heart of the hotel tower is a magical urban escape: Carina. Skylights in the vaulted ceilings flood the space with natural light and reveal design touches including handmade terracotta tiles, polished black granite, and leather details. With a dedicated bar and street-level entrance, Carina offers a flexible setting for a variety of celebrations.
Walk up the marble stairs of the historic church and you’ll step into the expansive 1,510 square foot Banneker Foyer. Just outside Banneker Ballroom, its stone and marble floors, natural light, coffered ceilings, and custom millwork give a nod to its history, while keeping a decidedly modern atmosphere.
Perched at the top of Adams Morgan’s main artery and overlooking 18th Street, Vela Rooftop has a vantage point unlike anywhere else in the city. Take in panoramic views of the nation’s capital and the Washington Monument. The massive, fully landscaped 5,590 square-foot space can be uniquely customized to create a truly special experience.
