Great little gem of a hotel. Great atmosphere and service makes up for the very small room. Right across from a good metro stop with lots of restaurants and sights within walking distance. more

We got a great deal on this extremely convenient hotel on Expedia. com. The hotel lobby was warm and welcoming. The staff was very friendly. Everyone we encountered always said hello as we passed. Our queen room was small but reminiscent of a European hotel carved out of a historical building. The room was clean and comfortable. Everything very quiet... more

I chose this hotel for it's convenient location and it was definitely a great locale! It is also safe and within walking distance for the sights I wanted to see. The housekeeping is not up to par - I drew back the heavy drapes to let in some light and there were cracker crumbs on the carpet. Since I was... more

On the plus side: Friendly desk staff, unique architecture/room layout. The best part is the location - very close to the Gallery Place metro station and Verizon Center, across the street from the Portrait Gallery + an easy, several block walk to the mall. It was the perfect base location for sightseeing during the day and catching the fireworks on... more

I chose to stay at the Hotel Monaco in DC after having a great experience at the Chicago property, and was not disappointed. We were given a room on the first floor, which turned out to be below ground, which I was a little concerned about (the hotel is housed in a historic post office, so the layout is a... more

We had a very nice stay at the Hotel Monaco. Our family stayed there for almost a week during our visit to DC.

The rooms were a bit snug, but management has explained room sizes in... more

I was a bit worried from reading some negative reviews but I have to say I experienced nothing exceptionally negative during my stay. We were checked in early without prior notice and the room was clean, on the same floor as the front desk. The staff were friendly and helpful. We did not stay for the wine reception but the... more

This hotel had a number of drawbacks for me - first of all, I stayed here at the weekend and found that the area was not quite as buzzy as was described. As a previous reviewer commented, we found it difficult to find anywhere suitable for breakfast and ended up going to a Starbucks, which was not ideal. I also... more

I stay often at Kimpton hotels and, generally, they are great. We booked the Med. suite, which is one of the largest and most expensive in this hotel. We had requested a high floor but were booked onto the first floor even though we have frequent stay status. The hotel's location is the biggrest draw as well as its historic... more
