    The hotel and room were great. As soon as I spotted it online, I knew my friend would love the quirkiness and oldy worldy decor. It was comfortable and a big room, and well located for people relying on public transport. No TV, which would’ve been unnecessary for us. And for any runners, Roosevelt Island parkrun is easy to get to! As with most US hotels, breakfast is an additional cost. But we were given money-off vouchers, and the breakfast was really good. Wi-fi in our room wasn’t great, so a booster could improve that.

    Lovely old hotel. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else in DC.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Very loud and noisy, well into the late evening. Coming primarily from the kitchen and restaurant inside the hotel. Not recommended.

    Breakfast was great, waitstaff very attentive.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    Loved the charm, history, restaurant, and location. No elevator, TV/coffee maker, hot water went in and out when you showered. But I do understand this is “the oldest continually operating Inn in DC” so I am not ignorant to the fact that there might be some quirks.

    Quirky but comfortable with Old School ambience and courteous staff

    The Tabard Inn is a legacy Washington DC establishment with name inspired by a name famous from the history of the English language. The staff are more like family than employees. What's not to like? But don't expect obesience to modern technology. You have to walk upstairs if you have room up there. I liked that for the energy saving and the chance to get a tiny bit more exercise.

    Very good

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    This was an alright place to stay—great location, comfortable bed, and spacious room. It definitely is a very 19th century vibe—no convenient outlets by the bed, no TV, no elevator, thin walls so you can hear people walking around and chatting, and no blackout curtains to cover the bright light outside the window. I also saw a roach in my room which was not ideal. Finally, the staff was a bit rude about luggage storage at check-out. If you’re looking for a place with character that’s convenient to great food/activities/transit, this place is for you, but if you are sensitive to light/noise/etc., I’d choose another option.
