Inn at Dupont Circle
-
Because we love the impressionists, Renoir prints fill the walls. Relax on the love seat, and delight in the ambience of this room. The Renoir Room is on the third floor with a private bath. There is a sofa bed which can accommodate a third guest for a minimal additional charge.
The Country Room Our Country Room is a soothing retreat on the top floor of the inn is a quiet haven in the midst of Washington DC. Decorated in soft reds and whites and overlooking our rear garden, you'll think your are in the country away from it all. Terry robes provided for your short trip to the shared bath located just down the hall. The Country Room shares a bath with the Nook and Queen Anne Rooms.
This room is also the essence of romantic elegance. The blazing chandelier reflects in the massive mirror that soars to meet the 12-foot high ceilings. Tired after a day of meetings and touring? This is a perfect place to retreat and regroup. The Crystal Room is on the second floor and has a private bath. The king bed can be split into two twins. There is also a twin sofa chair that can accommodate a third person for a minimal additional charge.
The Dixon Room was once Jeanne Dixon husbands study. Framing the king-size bed, the antique quilt, an import from a tiny West Virginia town, is gracefully set off against the forest green walls and reflected in the mirror opposite the bed, over the fireplace. Note the early 20th century molded radiators, like others that fill the house even in the bathrooms! The Dixon Room is on the third floor with a private bath (and bathtub). The bed can also be split into two single beds.
This charming room was named for its original Victorian rose and yellow Queen Anne windows. Morning light bathes the room in soft pastels. The king size bed can be easily converted into two single beds. Terry robes are provided in the room for the walk to the shared bath located just down the short hall. This room shares a bathroom with the Nook and Country Room.
Here's another view of the Tiffany Room, one of our most beautiful--with its Victorian oak armoire, gleaming chandelier and brilliantly colored stain glass windows, framing the top of 10-foot high soaring bay windows--all treasures of Victorian detail and elegance.
The Garden Loft is a bright, cozy mini-suite, with its white wicker and floral decor that feels like an extension of our garden. It has its own ground level "Florida" room and white narrow spiral stairs that lead to a small bedroom/bathroom loft with a queen size bed. Extra touches are the white tile and green marble bathroom with a whirlpool bath, as well as skylights, that let in all the morning sun. The Garden Loft is our smallest room with a private bath. There is also a twin sofa chair that can accommodate a third person for a minimal additional charge that includes breakfast.

1.8 out of 5What a dump!
December 02, 2012
This is the type of B&B for small town guests who think dusty rose and stuffed teddy bears mean luxury. Beat up floors, scuffed walls, chipped paint, 1950s bathrooms that look like your poor gradmother's house rather than cool. No elevator. There are so many other small hotels that are nicer and cheaper.
5 out of 5A Great Place to Stay!
October 01, 2012
The inn is lovely, convenient, quiet, clean, and safe. Carolyn is wonderful, and the other staff are very friendly as well. I felt quite at home and comfortable. I will stay there next time I am in DC.

First things first... The Good: 1) The Inn at DuPont Circle is a comfortable and convenient place to stay. It's in a good and safe part of town right near a Metro stop. 2) It's within walking distance of the White House (1 mile/15 minutes) , and the Washington Monument (1.5 miles/25 minutes). The bad: 1) I had chosen to spend the extra $30 or $40 on the Garden Loft (because it sounded nice with the private entrance and the Whirlpool bath), but was told upon arrival that she had already given it to someone else. I felt like I had fallen for a bait & switch, which was disappointing, but I didn't let it get to me and spoil the stay like some people might. 2) They tried to make it look fancy, but all of the furniture looked like it had been picked up off the curb or thrifted. None of it went together. But the bottom line is that it's a clean and comfortable place to stay, not that it's well-decorated. 3) The spread of pastries shown is not representative of what's available, so don't expect that. But again, your reason to stay probably isn't the fruit tart in the picture. Other notes: They charge $25 for parking. Also, if you're using a gift certificate, be sure to negotiate the price before telling them-somehow, my stay came out to just a bit more than the value of my g.c when I think I could have gotten it for less. Final thoughts: It's clean and convenient, and a comfortable place to stay that was easy to get to after a long day of walking. If you're in D.C., you're probably not planning on curling up by the fire like at a Vermont B&B, you'll be out visiting the city, so decor is less important. Would I stay there again? No, but only because I've already been there and am sure there are other places to experience that would be equal or better for the same price. Would I recommend staying there? Sure, why not. It's fairly affordable and a great location. Just keep simple expectations.
5 out of 5I love the Inn!
October 06, 2011
I have been staying at the Inn at DuPont Circle at least once a year since 2006. I love it. The rates are very reasonable. It is located within very easy Metro or walking distance from all of the major locations in and around DC. The neighborhood is quite safe; I feel very comfortable coming and going alone after dark. The breakfasts are incredible! If you go away from the breakfast table hungry, you just were not trying! Carolyn and her staff make you feel welcome...and if you keep coming back, you start to feel like family.

3.8 out of 5Really good reception through the stay
February 15, 2011
Very friendly and welcoming place. The breakfast was really outstanding with great personal service; as in asking if I wanted more bacon even if I was the only one at the breakfast, if I wanted an omelette, if I wanted them to open breakfast earlier than announced. My room was the Nook room, the cheapest one and it met my expectations (a small room with a bed, refrigerator, TV and AC), good value for the price. I'll return if I get the chance. /HG

4.4 out of 5A Great Value in the DC Area
August 18, 2008
Why stay in an expensive Hotel when you have The Inn at Dupont Circle? The Inn is located in vary active "hip" part of DC with shops, dinning and the Metro just a few steps away. The inkeeper was more than helpful with local information and prepared a cook-to-order breakfast each morning. The room was clean and met all of our needs. Most importantly, we felt very safe. No need to bring your car because the Metro will drop you off 100 yards from the front door. We elected to drive (never again!) and was surprised to have the inkeeper personnaly escort us to their spaces in a nearby garage where we parked our car for $15.00 a day-a very fair price for that area. Our overall experience was fantastic and we would definitely stay there again.
