Love the Monaco. Stayed there many times over the years. A minor thing: I am put off by the hotels insisting on charging for any movie - and charging far too much. Otherwise, couldn't recommend more highly.

Please clean these rooms. I felt as if I was suffocating with all the dust on the light fixtures, headboard and carpet. The carpet is filthy. This is unacceptable after you've paid almost 1k per night. This is motel standard for a \"luxury hotel \".

had an amazing stay at the Kimpton Monaco this weekend. The staff went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed throughout my visit. As a special birthday surprise, I was graciously upgraded to a room at no additional cost, which made my experience even more memorable.

I have been staying at this hotel for over 10 years, and the level of service has always been exceptional. The consistency, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality keep me coming back year after year. Thank you to the entire team for making my birthday weekend so special.

The room was clean for the most part although I did find a hanger under the table that I figured belonged to a previous guest so I left it there and housekeeping did not find it for the entirety of my stay so I ended up placing it in the closet.

The bathroom was very large but mostly wasted space because the shower was small and the counter top space was very limited. There was some moulding in shower that could have been replaced also.

Room service was pretty much non existent as the restaurant catered to their inside guests I assume and very rarely answered the phone. The bar restaurant area was lively but they definitely cater to non hotel guests. If room is on main floor, noise from the restaurant outside patio area is definitely an issue.

Front desk staff could be more hospitable. Only time I got someone friendly was when I got back home and phoned in to ask about my invoice which they could not provide to me upon check out since printers were down. Also strangely there were people sleeping on the couches in front lobby when I checked out at 5am who did not appear to be hotel guests, possibly family of staff, so that was pretty odd.

Valet was always pleasant.

Hotel Monaco was perfect for an overnight stay celebrating a milestone birthday with family in D.C. We took in dinner and a show, both within walking distance of the hotel.

Keilon and the rest of the staff met all expectations including flowers awaiting the guest of honor upon her arrival to her room. Thank you for a wonderful, memorable stay. We will be back!

We paid $500+ for a night that we could not even enjoy because of the street noise. This was supposed to be a \"garden level\" room. There was no garden. There was a noisy street that was actually ABOVE our room. We could not even let daylight in because people walking on a sidewalk would be able to see inside our room. Terrible. Never again we will consider this hotel chain.

I love Kimpton hotels!
I adore their scents, decor, and bike lending. All the little touches they add are fun.

DC: Providing postcards and doing the stamping and mailing at the old post office building is a joyful novelty.

I understand, but I’m sad that the toiletries are no longer in small take away bottles.

The bikes we received were in need of service (loose seats and not aligned).

The room with a queen bed we stayed in was by far the smallest hotel room we've ever stayed in. A bigger person would not have been able to fit between the foot of the bed and the opposite wall (where the TV is mounted), in order to move from the side of the room with the door and bathroom to the side with the desk and most readily accessible outlets. The place was clean, but our room was located on the \"1st\" floor, which is sub street level (and below the lobby) and smelled musty. The room itself actually smelled damp. We considered asking for a different room, but the schedule for the convention we were in town for was tight, so we just dealt with it for the hours we were in the room to sleep. The food at the restaurant is good, the staff is very polite, and I appreciate that they highlight the automatic gratuity on the check. I found it a little strange that, though they walk by the tables frequently, you essentially have to flag someone down to ask for the check, a to go box, etc. No one ever even stopped in to check on my meal or ask if I wanted water.

The good: This is a lovely rehabilitated historic building; we loved our room, the tall ceilings and wide hallways. We also enjoyed a drink at the bar. Our first night's stay was fine after the party in the courtyard ended around 9 p.m. Unfortunately, the second night was a nightmare. The people in the neighboring room on the second night of our stay were extremely loud, leading us to check out at 2 a.m. and drive home rather than put up with the noise any longer. We did contact hotel staff earlier in the evening, who followed up with them, but to no avail - after a brief period, they resumed the loud talking, and their dog barked on several occasions. There were also children running and making noise in the halls both nights, long past the time when small children should have been in bed. We may have simply been unlucky, but the experience was miserable.

Very disappointing stay . We travel frequently and this by far was sub-par. The reception desk staff acted as if we were bothering them from check-in to check out. The complimentary social hour staff, however, were welcoming and friendly. Regarding the rooms…. I have never seen a flat bedsheet thrown over an uncovered duvet! Horrible! For the price of the room, a duvet cover should absolutely be standard! The bar was advertised to be open until 11pm/12am. Both nights we were there the bar closed at 8pm!!!!
