Hip boutique hotel with rooftop pool and bar in downtown D.C.
The Donovan House is a hip, modern hotel with edgy decor that appeals to leisure and business travelers. The hotel is located in downtown D.C., not far from the White House. The Donovan House lures locals as well as visitors to its rooftop pool for drinks and snacks after sunset (by day the pool is open to hotel guests only). The inventive Asian cuisine at Zentan persuades guests to stay in and eat at the hotel. The restaurant also makes food for the rooftop pool bar, ADC (Above D.C.).

Cool decor!
The modern/retro 70's/Jetson spaced themed hotel was great. The customer service at the Donavan House is warm and welcoming. Like all Kimpton's, attention to detail to the guest is bar none. Where else can you get a cute loner goldfish during your stay in your room? The location which is close to Washington D.C. mall attractions was great. We found it so easy to walk to everything. My family really enjoyed our stay and the delicious Japanese restaurant at the hotel.

Perfect for business and pleasure.
We have never had a better hotel experience anywhere, and we travel a lot, both in the U.S. and internationally. The entire hotel staff, from the doorman, the front desk, the concierge, the maitre D', were all the best ever. We definitely recommend the hotel, and will not hesitate to make it our destination on our next visit to DC.

It's a nice neighborhood to stay in, lots of places to eat nearby, although we ate in the great hotel restaurant most of the time. We took some very long walks, one day we walked down to the Whitehouse, over to the Lincoln Memorial, then to the capital, then took a short cab ride back to the hotel. We also used the trolley system, the metrorail, and several cabs during our stay.

My new favorite DC hotel
The front desk service was fantastic. They welcomed us and made us feel special. The location is not too far from the White House, China Town, and the Staples Center. Parking was expensive but not abnormal for DC. An added bonus was their happy hour. Everyone was friendly and made the weekend one day before the inauguration a special visit!

wonderful experience!!
This is a beautiful, modern hotel with great staff members and a fantastic location. The rooms were a little smaller than I had expected, but uniquely decorated and luxurious. Staff was friendly, professional, and very accommodating. Loved this hotel, I would definitely stay here again. Great location, so many restaurants near by, plus the metro station is very close.

AMAZING!
Single most amazing hotel experience in my life (and I have worked in hotels for over 10 years!) Breana and Janina went above and beyond to make our stay special and unforgettable! There is no reason to stay in any other hotel in DC. (note: I just stayed there.. It would not allow me to pick 2013)

Lovely staff and great hotel
Got an upgrade, they were really easy and helpful, but room service was not open after 10pm. Not good.

Great business break
Overall really excellent. Amazing rooftop bar with an incredible view, expensive but delicious snacks. Overall, there was a perfect balance of bustle in the public areas--making the place feel lively and vibrant--and the calm oasis of my room. Check out staff was a bit brusque, but othervise excellent service.

Hotel was nice but sheets on the bed would have been nice instead of just a comforter. Also, an ice machine on every floor would be a good addition instead of having to request that ice be sent up to the room by the staff from downstairs. Coffee and tea in the morning is a nice touch and would be nice if available all day long. The complimentary local microbrews and wine between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. in the lobby was awesome! Wake-up calls were not prompt but was not critical as our train did not leave early. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Thanks, Donovan House.
