A Stay Report on Topaz Hotel in DC
Can anyone provide a report on staying at the Topaz Hotel (a Kimpton hotel) in Washington, DC?

Kimpton much better than *wood in DC..
Well, I like them anyway.
Go to this website at www.tripadvisor.com, http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserR..._Columbia.html
Someone on the *wood board recently said that people generally post with negative reviews more than positive.
The Kimpton reviews are striking in that a few are negative ones, but most are positive. Indicative to me that they are better hotels (overall).

I haven't stayed at the Topaz but have stayed at two other Kimpton properties in DC -- Hotel Monaco and Hotel Helix -- and enjoyed both of them.

I live just around the corner from the hotel and the restaurant and bar are great. Service is great. The bar has a decent croud for happy hour. The neighborhood is a great location, very chraming and centrally located. Quiet street just off dupont and scott circles. I can't speak for the rooms specifically.
