This hotel has a great location. It is true that one side doesn't have views, but the other side is lovely, and the rooms are very roomy. The food is also good. But the real reason to stay is the staff and the manager. They welcomed me before I arrived and helped with any issue or concern I had. It... More

Before staying at this hotel, I had a very positive opinion of Kimpton from previous stays. However this hotel substantially reduced my opinion. The Topaz has a great location near Dupont Circle, but the hotel itself has terrible views. Outside my window is an alley, a dumpster (which was dumped last night at 6 am and woke me up) and... More

Dear BooTheGroundhog, Thank you for posting a review of your experience with us here on Tripadvisor.com. This one stings. There’s a lot to digest in here. So, I appreciate the candid and detailed feedback. I’m terribly sorry that your stay was not an outstanding one. The views on the back side of the building are not the most appealing. However,...

Dear vamellens, Thank you for recommending us to fellow travelers here on Tripadvisor. I agree that our lobby is a little cozy and that give us an opportunity to wrap our arms around folks on the way in and give them a proper send off on the way out. Some people aren’t into this. So, we give them their space.... More

I stayed at this hotel about 6 times in 2011, and each stay was good because the staff were so nice. Tip: the best item in the hotel restaurant is the Topaz Salad with fried shrimp, and the wine selections are decent. More

Dear TNiceT, Thanks for the review and thank you for making Topaz your home away from home in Washington. I’m glad to hear that you’ve been treated well by our folks. That doesn’t surprise me one bit. Good news: There are several rooms with exercise equipment in them and we actually just replaced the machines a couple of weeks ago.... More

This hotel is in the best location. You are in the heart of Dupont Circle, steps to tons of restaurants, bars and nightclubs. Literally Steps. The rooms are very stylish and comfortable. I highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Washington DC. More

Dear eegentry11, Thank you for recommending Topaz here on Tripadvisor. Kelly does a great job with us and Muhammed was actually covering from the Helix. But, we’ve worked together twice previously.

Stayed at Topaz for 2 nts. Hotel is conveniently located a few blocks from Dupont Circle metro stop on a quiet residential street. Queen deluxe was roomier than expected, clean, well-furnished, but on the drafty side. Bathroom looked new/recently re-done. There's a flat screen tv, but oddly it's not HD and channels are very limited (if tv watching is important... More
