Clean hotel and room, helpful staff, very nice restaurant and atmosphere. It doesn't feel like run of the mill hotel. It has a great atmosphere, and I would be happy to stay there on my next visit to Washington DC.

We loved this hotel and would definitely stay here again on a future trip. The space is so unique and fun, the staff is very nice, the room is spacious and comfortable. Very unusually we had both dinner and brunch in the hotel which were both delicious (best donut I ever had).

What an awesome historical find. So cool, charming, and neat all at the same time. Only stayed one night however kept noticing little details about the inn each time we came in and, 100% better than staying at sterile no feels plain drywall Hilton. Breakfast was awesome and they happened to have some jazz the night we were there, not that those are super important. Either way definitely suggest checking it out we would stay again so e could try the bar and maybe even dinner. Good location as well.

Walking into the Tabard Inn is like stepping back in time. It is comfortable and interesting, not luxurious. Beautiful woodwork, electic artwork, and rugs galore line the halls. Our beds were comfortable and our room was artfully decorated, but there was no television. I enjoyed reading my book, slept well and then had a nice breakfast the next morning.

Check in was a breeze; room was quaint and quiet; and the staff is perfection! The restaurant has excellent food with very attentive but not overly intrusive staff. While I have been going to the Tabard Inn for more than fifty years, I had never stayed at the hotel, I will definitely stay again! And a BIG plus--it is within walking distance to my office!

Great location in downtown DC. Nice and historic - it is made from 3 1880's row houses and converted to a hotel. It has a very nice upscale restaurant, which seems quite popular with the locals.
