I can easily recommend this hotel. Perfect location, particularly for guys interested in 17th Street establishments. "P" is growing too in the Whole Foods block, not to mention 14th street. Steph-Vog (intentionally truncated) is one of the managers and is very friendly and accomodating. It is great to see a Euro-trained, educated manager on-site. The decor? I will repeat I'm... more

I booked to stay here for family vacation in June. The hotel was located in a fairly good location within 10-15 minute walk to the subway near Dupont Circle. The area felt clean and quite safe but there were not much restaurants or shops around. The lobby has lots of character and as the name implied had a 1920s feel.... more

I was in DC for several days vacation, following a work conference in the area, and had a truly wonderful time at Hotel Rouge. In summary: My room was spacious (the sheer square footage was as much as I've had in suites in other hotels), the Bar Rouge a valued perk, and the location near DuPont Circle ideal. The rooms... more

We enjoyed our stay at Kimpton's Rouge Hotel very much. My two teenagers were in heaven with the entertaining decor and complementary red drinks in the lobby every evening. I was equally amused with the red decor and loved the friendly staff, room size and the wholefoods around the corner for nightly goodies and drinks after our long days of... more

All positive. Great central location, unique decor, large rooms, service (mostly) with a smile. Very helpful staff, nice touches with receptions. Cute bar. This hotel is not for the conservative traveler. It is very liberal (in staff, guests and decor). Lots of animal prints, contempo decor, etc. Very small compared to alot of DC hotels (lobby, bar, etc). But if... more

I am from the DC area and came to the Hotel Rouge for a short getaway. I was excited when I walked through the studded pleather doors and into the cute little lobby. I was even more excited when I went to my room to find it spacious, well decorated, and equipped with Aveda bath products and free wireless internet.... more

I just returned from a quick overnight to Washington DC. We had booked through the Hotel Rouge website, thinking we were reserving a "Panda Package" special which included four metro tickets and some zoo souvenirs. When we arrived, no arrangements had been made for the "extras" although the rate was quite reasonable anyway. The desk supervisor suggested I contact the... more

Had read some of the reviews here at tripadvisor before arriving in DC so decided this would be the 1st hotel we checked out. Had a bit of trouble finding it (new to driving the circle) but once discovered, put our car on a sidestreet and walked over. Rates we had seen online were less than offered at the desk,... more

Safe location with beautiful lawns and gardens to and from the metro station. Busy traffic, like all of DC. We felt very safe walking day or night. Hotel very clean, nice staff, very attentive. Decorated bright and retro. Small cafe on site convenient for quick b'fast. Afternoon complimentary wine or Red stripe beer. Room large on 1st floor looking at... more
