The location is great if you are willing to walk a bit. We walked everywhere. Rooms were spacious. There was a little room outside of the bathroom that you could use to put your makeup on with a great full length mirror. We had the breakfast that is set up in the bar. It wasn't very impressive. There are so... More

Great stay at Topaz. The rooms are spacious, clean, well-appointed. The staff went above and beyond in terms of providing helpful, useful area information. Perfect location-- 5mins (if that) walk to Dupont Circle (plenty of bars, restaurants, shops, and the metro). If you don't mind a stretch of the legs, it's an easy walk to the White House and National... More

My partner and I spent a weekend in Washington DC recently and stayed at The Topaz. From the moment we walked in we felt welcomed and special.

I stayed at the Topaz this past weekend and once a few years ago. The hotel itself is in a very quaint location, located next door to the historic Tabard Inn, and not at all far from the White House and other famous Monuments on the Mall. The rooms at the Topaz are spacious and clean, and the robes are... More

My wife and I spent two nights at the Topaz in the middle of April and really enjoyed the experience. From the warm and friendly greeting by the doorman to the check in staff, and Rick the Barman during cocktail and canapes hour, we felt welcomed and very much at home.

I typically like Kimpton hotels for their funky atmospheres. This one is tucked on a quiet street in Washington DC. I chose a yoga room out of curiosity. The bedroom was huge and It literally had a little meditation corner along with yoga mat & blocks. Also was an exercise bike by the TV. I loved waking up, doing yoga... More
