About us

A Bold Classic in the Heart of Penn Quarter Where History, Style, and Unforgettable Events Converge Kimpton Hotel Monaco Washington DC isn’t just a historic hotel—it’s a dynamic destination for events that stand out. Set within the grand halls of the landmark U.S. General Post Office and Tariff Building, Monaco offers a one-of-a-kind backdrop for group gatherings, with a design that’s both timeless and daring. Just steps from the Smithsonian museums, Capital One Arena, and DC’s most iconic attractions, we’re ideally located for corporate meetings, incentive programs, association groups, and executive retreats that need centrality with serious style. With 184 oversized guest rooms (including 18 suites), and over 14 distinctive meeting and private dining spaces—including outdoor options—Monaco gives planners unmatched flexibility, dramatic interiors, and bold spaces that make an impact. What Sets Us Apart: • A National Historic Landmark, Reimagined – Grand neoclassical architecture meets colorful, contemporary Kimpton design. No other venue in DC looks—or feels—like this. • Destination Dining On-Site – Host stylish receptions or private dinners with curated menus from Dirty Habit DC, our sultry and sophisticated restaurant + bar with indoor and courtyard options. • Versatile Venues with Personality – From sunlit salons to moody lounges, outdoor courtyards to intimate boardrooms, we’re made for meetings that don’t want to feel like meetings. • Steps from the Best of DC – In the heart of Penn Quarter, walkable to the National Mall, Smithsonian museums, and top restaurants, theaters, and nightlife. • Hospitality with Soul – With Kimpton’s signature service, your guests will feel celebrated from check-in to farewell toast. At Kimpton Hotel Monaco DC, we don’t just offer a venue—we deliver an experience rooted in heritage, elevated by design, and personalized for every group we host.
