I understand that this is a historic property, but that is not a sufficient reason to neglect basic upkeep, like peeling linoleum on the sinks and tub. The bathroom was not especially clean, and there is a rubber mat in the tub that is unappealing. There are no outlets near the bed, so I had to charge my phone/alarm clock at a distance (no clocks either). Just two thin pillows for a full bed. No fridge or TV. No elevator. The worst part is the life-size adult doll that stared up at me from the lobby area.

This is a charming place to stay while in DC. I've stayed there before and it's a unique experience. If you want a hotel with a gym and pool and long corridors with ice machines this is not the place for you. If you want a hotel that is unlike any other, with art and antiques everywhere, and a good bar and restaurant, then this is the place for you.

Though I'm not a huge fan of "Victorian / Art Nouveau" they manage to make it charming and quirky at the same time. I adore the rooms with the huge club foot bathtubs, the scale and coziness of the main rooms. Giving guests a $10.00 voucher to the restaurant is a great incentive to eat in a very enjoyable and appetizing restaurant. So many wonderful things to say about Tabard! I loved it for staycations when I lived in Washington and enjoy it now when I get to visit. Thanks!
