4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 June 2012 NEW

My husband and I recently spent a week here. We chose this hotel because of the locatiom -- an easy walk to the Mall, Metro across the street, and lots of restaurants nearby. Our room was on the second level, overlooking an interior courtyard which is used for drinks and snacks from the hotel bar. Though it was often noisy... More

We stayed here for 2 nights over Memorial Day weekend. I loved the fun, bright decor of this old historic building. Living in an old house, I appreciate the renovations. It felt like an intimate boutique hotel. The man who checked me in was so friendly, he asked if we've stayed there before and welcomed me 4 times! Our room... More

What's not to be in awe of. Beautifully restored, allowing for spacious rooms, great service, chic walk through history, and in the center of where you need to be in DC! Outstanding on every level!

I'm sitting in my room right now and the sidewalk is about 5 feet over my head. I'm sure it's a lovely hotel if your not kept in the dungeon which they lightly call the 1st floor.

Hello 10sne12day, Thanks for the comments - I wish we had said hello while you were here - as it really is a lovely hotel with a fantastic Poste Brasserie restaurant - and I would have loved to get a chance to convince you of that! Next time you're in DC - give me a shout please. Cheers Ed More

This hotel is in a great location in the middle of downtown DC, across the street from the National Portrait Gallery. It is in a historic building with plenty of marble, iron railings on stairwells with intricate designs, etc. The Monaco has a quirky side to it--the furniture, the entrance, everything is a little odd but in a good way....

The room was nice. Maybe I expected a bit more for a 4star hotel.They had a patio with restaurant/cafe in center and at night they played music till 12am and I could not sleep. Rooms need to be sound proof or music turned down. Other than that the experience was good.

We had a great deal through GroupOn and thus got our room for less than $175 per night. Well worth it. But a couple of things to note -- the lobby is on the ground floor but that's the 2nd floor and if you are assigned a room on the first floor, it's below ground level. Didn't bother me but... More

This property is convenient to metro station, Smithsonian, sports arena, china town and a number of restaurants from chains to high quality independents. Hotel has a complimentary wine hour. Hotel also has a very fine restaurant called Poste. Lovely courtyard when weather is good. Altogether a very nice property. I've never had a bad experience at any Kimpton property. I... More

Hi Bobin32 What can I say - you had us at location! Seriously - I'm glad you had such a great visit - we look forward to another soon! If you're in the neighborhood stop in for a Brasserie Burger - it's a burger extravaganza not to be missed! Cheers Ed More

I have come to learn that you can depend on Kimptons to be consistently very very good. The hotel is in a historic building, an old post office. I was a little worried about staying in an old building, as they can seem worn out unless renovated and maintained very well. Well - I thought this was one of those... More

Just got back from a weekend in DC and loved our stay at The Kimpton Hotel Monaco. We had a room on the 4th floor facing 7th and it was totally quiet. The bed was very comfortable, the room was beautiful and the complimentary wine at 5PM was a really nice touch. The hotel has a wonderful courtyard and we... More
