Victor Miyakawa SolísSeptember 6, 2014This hotel is different, good different. Decor in rooms is almost unique. Courteous staff, good location. You should stay here at least once if you are in the DC area. Great lounge (rooftop).- Great location and beautiful views from the rooms facing Thomas Circle. Had great service from the staff throughout my 5 night stay.
Paulien ZomerApril 7, 2015Great place to stay if you want to explore the city. If you want the free bikes the hotel provides (only 3), you have to be early!- AFAR MediaAugust 4, 2014Situated along Thomas Circle, this centrally-located Klimpton boutique hotel mixes urban chic with a bit of James Bond cool to a vibrant crowd.

Checking in was quick and easy. My room is modern and comfortable with a terrific view. Kareem at the front desk was friendly, helpful and professional.
Tavon .May 7, 2017Great location. Unique room, especially the bathroom. Outstanding toiletries provided. The front desk was really friendly.
chinaJune 1, 2015Great views from the rooftop but the pool closes at 5:00 (at which point the rooftop bar opens up).
Free wi-fi and $10 "raid the mini-bar" credit with InTouch membership and a complimentary wine reception from 5-6 every evening. Great views from the rooftop bar/pool.
MJune 24, 2016Warning: opening the half-bottle of (usually) cheap, mini fridge wine in your room will cost you more than $25! Welcome to DC.
Kira SchlesingerAugust 13, 2013They serve wine and light snacks in the lobby from 5-6. Great hospitality and a chance to relax after a long day.
itsHECTORNOWNovember 16, 2013Great place to stay. Beautifully modern rooms but still very cozy. Super friendly and helpful staff.
Liana BuenaventuraAugust 18, 2013Incredibly friendly staff, complimentary wine from 5-6, fun touches in the room...great place to stay!
Jake AndrewJuly 26, 2017Great pool, good size room. Somewhat unreliable housekeeping. Sometimes design trumped function.
Jackie GordonDecember 27, 2014Excellent friendly staff. Beautiful room. We always love a Kimpton hotel.
The hotel is great but some of the parking staff are extremely rude! Also the employees like to hang out with their cars in the one loading/unloading space making it difficult to check in/out easily!
Danielle HotardJanuary 3, 2016it's quiet, and the location was great for my trip. however, the Wi-fi worked about <5% of the time
John GrosecloseJuly 17, 2012Really nice hotel but you have to order ice from the front desk since there are no ice machines. No coffee maker in the room either. Other than that very modern look, nice staff.
Free blazing fast Wi-Fi for Kimpton InTouch Members. Free to sign up. Check out the hotel site for details.
- Another blast of wintry weather means another comfortable stay at The Donovan.
Super comfortable hotel that is inspired by a 1960s James Bond movie.
Xavier MotleyJanuary 18, 2010i booked through hotels.com & got a rate cheaper than budget hotels.the hotel design is amazing.if you arrive on sunday, please enjoy the sushi in the attached restaurant.try to get a view facing 14th Read more- Get excited! Refreshed Rooftop slated to open middle of May! More details to come for sure. -The Mayor
- Hope that the elevators are working properly. During our stay only two of the three were in use and hotel staff were using them for their needs as well. Waiting for an elevator grew really old.
Nice hotel, however the pool closes at 5 pm so they can open the rooftop bar which is a little bit of a bummer.- Parking staff here can be VERY rude and combative. They like to park their personal cars in the one load/unload space available so they can chat with their friends.
HB CAugust 19, 2012Drinks are good, but pricey! Nice spot, DJ was on point! No cover or dress code is a plus!
JP VdwallAugust 3, 2019They overbook rooms so we ended up having to find another hotel at midnight! No compensation whatsoever, just an apology. Really bad experience and horrible customer service...
Awesome hotel. Great staff too. Had an issue with my first room and got upgraded to an amazing room.
- Hotel TonightApril 6, 2011Sleek decor at this happening hotel. The rooftop pool lounge boasts DC's most fashionable crowd.
Thompson HotelsMay 10, 2011The Woodward and Bernstein Meeting Rooms are perfect for groups from 10 to 80 people.
Taylor BurtonAugust 29, 2017If you're looking for a hotel with good customer service this is not the place
Mo DysonAugust 8, 2011The free Internet code previously mentioned is invalid. They change it weekly FYI.
Jennifer RosowskiMay 14, 2014Beds are uncomfortable. Not enough water pressure...shower was more like a drizzle. Elevators are very slow. Seems more effort was put into aesthetics than comfort.
