Tabard Inn

What a dreamy little stay! The restaurant is worth going out of your way for not just for the ambience but the breakfast was some of the best we’ve ever had. Unique in a simple way with fresh, quality ingredients — just so good! The frisée is a must! The room was charming, comfortable, and SO clean. The shower does not get very hot and was lukewarm in the morning so maybe they can do something about that. The staff is wonderful and personable, and the location was perfect and central to everything. Would stay again!

We enjoyed staying here in an historic building. Big room & bed. No fridge but reception offers to store in theirs. Bathrooms are shared. Walkable to Whitehouse etc.

Perfect location within easy walking distance of Dupont Circle. We stumbled upon the Tabard Inn by chance, and it turned out to be an exceptionally cute and cozy place to pass the time! Many couples were there enjoying the atmosphere. The restaurant is very nice as well. We had two rooms, one for my parents and the other for us, both had fireplaces and vintage furniture. Our bed was huge! We want to make coming here a tradition.

We stayed at the Tabard Inn for two night while visiting family in town. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The decor is eclectic and so fun. There's a lot of history to absorb at the Tabard Inn. We had a fabulous breakfast (lox over scrambled eggs, house-made donuts) and a good dinner (bib salad, chicken fricassee). TV sets and elevators are absent, so be aware. For us, this was just fine.

If they take you to room 8 run. The bathroom essentially had the window open because of the draft. There was no hot water. We mentioned it and they said sorry we'll have someone look into it. There is a wind shield in front of the window. Weather stripping lazily taped around the window. So they knew. Terrible experience. Will never come back and will warn as many people as I can. Edit - so what you're telling me is, over the last several days you haven't had anyone in that room to have it cleaned to feel how terribly cold it was? Or that the plastic shield hanging in the shower over the window wasn't there to block the cold air? Or the weather stripping placed around the window was there because you didn't know it was terribly cold? You're also saying at 2am I should have gone
