The best part of our stay was the front desk staff, David Camacho. He was outstanding in every way and made a stressful trip so much easier for us. We had never stayed in downtown DC before and were here for a wedding celebration at the hotel. David helped us so much, with restaurant info, directions, museum info, advice, and even pushed my husband's wheelchair when he had a vertigo attack. His kind and thoughtful demeanor really made our stay wonderful. The room had a few drawbacks, struggled with no promised nespresso coffee maker in our room. (Had to complain, then housekeeping gave us a keurig, that didn't work well) and carpets that were not vacuumed. The room was very small, no microwave, and also a restaurant that did not have a healthy menu, or plant based options. We had hoped to order oatmeal for breakfast, but that was not an option. The gym was nice, the decor was simply beautiful, and the location was great so that made up for the few inconveniences. Again, David was the brightest spot, and we hope you will give him a raise!! He deserves it!

If you want to feel like you’re staying in a strangers basement for $700 a night, this is the hotel for you! We booked a superior king room and were given a damp basement room with barely enough space to put our luggage down. We opened the curtains to reveal a giant yellow wall with a tiny window, about 8 feet high, right under the ceiling that you can’t see out of. The carpet was dirty/damp and the shower had mold. Just know if your room is on the “1st floor” you’re actually going to the basement below the lobby. Luckily we were able to switch to the room we booked but not until the second night. We weren’t given any sort of compensation for their mistake, (not even a drink to say sorry for their mix up) and when American Express called the manager was even rude to them! What an experience. I would have much rather spent my money elsewhere. To top it all off they tried to charge us twice :). I expect A LOT more from a Kimpton. I travel for business and fun often and used to stay in Kimptons, but I don’t think I ever will again.

The stay at the Kimpton Hotel Monaco Washington DC was wonderful! The hotel is beautiful, clean, and perfectly located. The staff was kind, welcoming, and always available to help. The rooms were comfortable and elegant, and the atmosphere made the experience even more special. I highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again. Thank you for the amazing hospitality!

A truly exceptional experience. The property was clean, quiet, and very well maintained. Every interaction with the staff was positive and professional. The room offered great comfort and attention to detail, making it easy to unwind. The entire stay felt effortless and enjoyable from beginning to end.

No soundproofing, horrible bathrooms and loud music till 2 am. We stayed 2/20-2/22 - had requested a 1 King Studio Suite Dining Area room. The room had high vaulted ceilings, and absolutely no soundproofing. The hotel boasts itself to be a wedding venue which means loud music, on Saturday this went until 2 am - keeping us up for most of the night. Our neighboring room had an infant with them - the lack of soundproofing was readily apparent as we woke up with each cry. Not the guests fault! But our nice weekend trip left us with little to no sleep due to the hotel. The toilets would not flush, when you (or any neighboring room) turned on the shower the pipes sang loudly - which was lovely to wake up to. The dirty habit was fine - the breakfast was heavily salted and looked and tasted like it was pulled out of a buffet line. We could not get a waiter over to refill waters or coffees - despite being “unlimited”. If you are staying there with the hopes of taking an Uber/Taxi anywhere - check with the Capital One Arena schedule - as an event got out as we were leaving - cars could not get through the traffic and we chose to walk to our dinner as it would take less time (15 min) than wait for the uber to get to us and wait through traffic. The hotel is also tired - could use updating. The bathroom had masking tape holding the shutters closed. For the price we paid - we were sorely disappointed. We would rather stay at the Fairmont or the Sofitel.

Was disappointed in our stay here for Valentine's Day. I stayed here once a few years ago and it was such a high end classy place... has gone down hill since then I guess. I also remembered the rooms being larger with two nice plushy robes and slippers. But the room we were in was TINY, one shoddy robe and no other amenities. The staff at the front desk are a mixed bag of welcoming and very rude. One of them accused my husband of not being a guest there while he was trying to fill up his water bottle. Cleaning crew came knocking on our door at 9am and woke us up (check out isn't until noon). And both of our keys stopped working so we couldn't get back into our room. There was a dog on our floor that also wouldn't stop barking and whining all night. For the price I would highly recommend staying somewhere else. We stayed at the Yours Truly before this but switched for a special valentine's stay, and I honestly wish we just stayed at Yours Truly. Much classier place with kinder staff.

Incredible location, beautiful elegant and modern design mix, and the perfect all-in-one for my couples. As a wedding photographer who has done a half dozen weddings at the Hotel Monaco DC, I've found it to be a very appealing, easy, and stylish option for my clients. The ceremony space is unique and allows for multiple interesting layouts. The nearby museums and streets allow for plenty of great portrait opportunities. But overall my couples love to connect with their people and everything about Hotel Monaco has allowed that to happen with ease.

A pleasant surprise, perfect location. Hotel is clean, pet friendly and the food was really good. What I liked most of all, THE STAFF! From the valet to the front desk, the housekeeping staff, the Bell men, I know I'm missing some people. The point is the staff is outstanding! 5 ?.

This hotel was absolutely beautiful. Our room was very clean, quiet, and well maintained. My only minor complaint was the bed, it was somewhat uncomfortable due to the mattress protector, which made it a bit noisy and less comfortable than expected. We were able to check in early and check out late, which was a huge plus and greatly appreciated. The location was extremely convenient, with many attractions nearby, and the valet parking made it easy to leave the car and use public transportation throughout our stay. We got a free night with points, so that was our only expense! So overall, great stay! The staff was kind, professional, and welcoming the entire time. Thank you for helping make our trip such a great experience!

Everything was great. Loved the building, everything was clean, beds comfortable pillows fresh. Makeup mirror, iron, umbrella. Would have liked slippers. It was bitterly cold and windy outside but the rooms were comfortable and warm. No drafts. The bar closed too early. It was a Sunday, I guess that's why. The wine (half bottle) they sold at the front desk was disappointing. Super friendly staff, even the valet in less than ideal weather. The restaurant, 'Dirty Habit', was pretty good.
