Kimpton Rouge Hotel

I stay at this location a few times a year and this recent trip was disappointing. The hotel bar/restaurant is closed. The “gym” consists of three machines and 5 random free weights. Two of the machines were not plugged in or maybe were broken. The breakfast has really limited offerings and the quality of what is offered is not great. I’m not quite sure what the daily “amenity fee” is paying for. The rooms are nice and clean and the staff is very friendly.

It was chill and low key. With no problems.

Good location and dog friendly, which was nice. So many additional fees though- covered breakfast, wifi, and wine at night, which in theory is nice, but we didn’t use of any of it. It should be an opt in fee and not a mandatory one. Hotel was nice but the final price was was way more than what the room was worth. Probably won’t stay again

It was a good stay, with very gracious staff. However, they were unclear on what was actually operational on the morning after christmas, in addition, some of their offerings were not available. But even so, the staff was very, very nice and helpful.

I am traveling with my family including the dog for one night in Washington, DC. The hotel is pet friendly so if you don’t like dogs please don’t come. We found other dogs in the hotel. But the hotel is very comfortable and clean. Our room 903 was spacious but a little noisy because it faces the front of the hotel. Good shower and the breakfast was included. You can park your car on the street near the hotel or pay to the vallet parking. I found a parking two streets from the hotel but they charge usd 37 per night . On Sundays, It is free to park on the street.

I have had nothing but good experiences with Kimpton until Rouge Hotel. Very clearly, this was a quick and cheap renovation of a dated hotel. The bathrooms are old and beaten up. The bedrooms feel seedy. The cable did not work properly- I could not watch even the most basic news. The bar/restaurant served browned limes and avocados. It was all around, a real disappointment

Room and customer service were great. However the continental breakfast was severely lacking.

Nice hotel in good location. 1.5blocks from Metro. The Lobby needs TLC.....Staff really attentive and friendly. Especially Carlos and the folks in housekeeping. There was a doorman/lobby attendant that was really attentive too. RESORT FEE: this is not a resort. If you want 40.00 extra. just put it in the rate. A resort is a self contained property with multiple restaurants and a unique entertaining feature like an amusement park or beach. Exactly what are you supplementing with this resort fee. You are not justified in charging this fee.

Stayed in DC for some business meetings.

Carpet torn in room. Otherwise nice, clear room. Had bug in bathroom sink. Some kind of roach. Maybe came out of drain pipe. All managable. I like Kimptons.
