Topaz Hotel

I did not stay at this hotel but wound up here after dinner at Tabard Inn(which was fabulous). Caught the tail end of Topaz's standup comedy show they do every(?) Thursday nite downstairs in the basement. It turned out to be the perfect nightcap.

Very funny comics--there was a young man from Baltimore named Eric Meyers(sp?) who had us in tears. I will stay at Topaz next time in DC--love the vibe of this hotel. The comedy show was free, but having to schlep up to the main bar to get drinks was annoying(no waiters in the showroom), but I quibble. We had a great time!

My husand and I really enjoyed our stay at the Topaz. The rooms are some what old but felt very, very clean. The cleaning service was excellent and very nice. The manager was very upbeat (as well as the staff) and very accommodating. We enjoyed the funky decor of the rooms. We had no problems getting around D.C. and the staff was very informative with directions. We just loved it and would stay here again if ever in the area.

The Topaz Hotel is one of those gems you hope to find when travelling.

Our room on the top floor facing the rear, was the quietest room I have ever stayed in. Quieter than staying out in the country.

The room was tastefully decorated with quality fittings. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.

The location, in a mostly residential street, but close to major streets, was very convienient, being a short ten minute walk to the White House.

Overall, excellent value for money.

It is set in an area of the city near to all important sites, but still residential in feel. The bed was fabulous! The decor of our room was a bit bizarre, but I was told it was hip. The front desk people were fabulous. It is a great boutique hotel!

This hotel made me feel inspired: The staff of the hotel made me feel welcome. They hired good people.

The service, the personal touch, the unique rooms and atmosphere are my reasons for staying at Kimpton hotels in general and the Topaz hotel in particular. It is a pet friendly hotel, so the carpets are not pristine, but still clean.

This hotel made me feel respected: Upon check in, they already knew my name and my preferences during my stay.
