The two of us were in town for a wedding and were recommended by the wedding party to stay at the Rouge. Very impressed with the check-in process and valet services. Our room was clean and well prepared. Every request we had of the staff was promptly fulfilled. The White House and surrounding sites are within a 20 minute walk.... More

What can I say, I love this hotel like I have every other Kimpton hotel Ive stayed in. I came here to have a get away and to do a little business as well and I never wanted to leave. The hotel was under renovations while we were there, but it didnt bother us a bit. They made sure to... More

I have stayed at the Hotel Rouge twice when in DC for business. The location is a little removed from business downtown and it is a fair distance from the Hill, but I choose Hotel Rouge for that reason. Sometimes it is nice to feel like you are getting away from business at the end of the day, even if... More

We chose the Kimpton hotel on purpose since we have always had great experiences. The Rouge did not disappoint us. Just as comfortable and staff very very friendly and helpful. Perfect location for White House and colleges! We will always prefer the Kimpton chain! More

comfortable, stylish, Kimpton hotel. Very close to major D.C hotspots including Dupont Circle, White House/National Mall and all the memorials and sites. Valet parking options are wonderful and SO lenient. May have to ask the staff to do things a couple of times, but, hotel's staff in general are super busy and handle many, many requests to that is totally... More

We stayed at the Rouge after a great stay at the Topaz about a year ago. We just chose this one to try something different. It was clear once we arrived it was a Kimpton: awesome, knowledgable staff, unique decorating and nice little touches you might not expect. We arrived on a Saturday, and there was the complimentary cold pizza... More

I stay at Kimptons a lot. In fact, they are my favorite chain. But I won't stay at the Rouge in the future and highly urge others not to judge Kimpton by this hotel. The first room I was given was very noisy, and I'm fairly certain there was blood on the comforter. The comforter is bright white, so how... More

Stayed here for a quick weekend visit to DC. The hotel is very good for the price point. It's like your average, standard Sheraton or Marriott, just with some more flair--red walls, cool lamps, funky wallpaper, etc. They are targeting the 20-30s crowd, so wouldn't recommend for older travelers. Parts of the room are kind of worn--the bathroom is on... More

This was one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in. The price was extremely reasonable and the room was huge! My husband had requested a microwave and fridge and when we were checking in, the man at the desk said he'd already upgraded us (for free) to a room with a kitchenette. In addition to that, there was a... More
