I loved it. Is it a bit shopworn, and maybe in need of some paint and places? Probably. But that’s also part of its charm. You also won’t find a television in your room, and power sockets are premium! But you’ll also feel like you’re staying in an Agatha Christie novel. My room was room seven, with tall windows overlooking the street, a fireplace (no, it didn’t work, but it was great ambience), two beds, a lounge, multiple chairs, and a drop top desk in front of the window, where I did some work, and felt like very much like a character from the Great Gatsby. The dining room is top-notch, with a terrific bar—and be sure to order the Tabard donut. Finally, it’s in a terrific location, easily accessible by the Dupont Metro, and within walking distance of a number of great restaurants. Stay here. You’re gonna love it.

They say paid parking is $26.00 but it is actually $30.68 because they have a 15% surcharge on credit cards. They were not helpful when I requested early check in…said a room was available but wanted to charge me $25.00 (not including the surcharge). The cheapest rooms have a shared bathroom down the hall. They offered to upgrade to a room with a bathroom but said it would be $100.00 extra. I said no, then they offered a room with a bathroom for $35.00 extra. Actually came out to $38.50 with their surcharge. No hot water when I took a shower the nite we checked. At breakfast I gave our server a $10.00 off coupon from the front desk. From that point on he was rude. Did not see him again until he dropped the bill off. We tipped 20% in cash on the total before the reduced amount. No thank you or anything. Just more rude service and asked if we had the coupon that I gave him at the beginning of the meal. The restaurant was the best part of the stay but the quality of food and staff was better at dinner compared to breakfast the next morning. The location is great for seeing sites in DC with a quick car ride. Probably would not stay a second time though. Rooms are a bit beat up and could use some remodeling. I did not appreciate the extra fees and them trying to get more money out of me again and again.

I like historic hotels but this one needs to invest in some basics. The sinks, tubs, and shower all have rusted and flaking porcelain, "historic" period furniture is cracked, water damaged, and what I'd generally see abandoned on the dude if the toad

I’ve made 4 reservations here. I really love this inn, however our most recent room… the water never got hot out of the sink, and the sink continuously leaked. We were also on the very top floor. I did not anticipate this as I’ve always been put on the second floor in the past, however my elderly parents struggled with all the steps so keep that in mind if you or someone rooming with you struggles with a lot of stairs.

Had a great stay at the Tabard Inn on a recent business trip to DC! I really enjoyed the old style of the building, eclectic decor, and artwork. Dining at the restaurant each night and for breakfast in the morning was very convenient and the meals were excellent! Highly recommend if you are looking for a different kind of stay in the city!
