Hotel Monaco was perfect for an overnight stay celebrating a milestone birthday with family in D.C. We took in dinner and a show, both within walking distance of the hotel. The holiday market right outside the front door made for a picturesque backdrop for our celebratory stay. Keilon and the rest of the staff met all expectations including flowers awaiting the guest of honor upon her arrival to her room. Thank you for a wonderful, memorable stay. We will be back!

Wonderful hotel with easy access to everything
I stayed here while in town for a graduation. It was very easy to get around from the hotel because of the proximity to the metro. The hotel was modern, clean, and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.
