"If there's a hotel in Washington that more completely lives up to its name than Hotel Rouge, I can't think of it. Part of the Kimpton chain, the Rouge, which opened in 2001 and underwent a renovation last year, strikes a playful, sexy tone that's refreshingly out of character with its surroundings."
- The Washington Post, April 2012
"Stay at Kimpton Hotels, which offers seven distinctive properties across D.C., including the crimson-themed Hotel Rouge."
- The Baltimore Sun, March 2012
"Where to Stay: Hotel Rouge, which is located five blocks from the Dupont Circle Metro stop. The kid-friendly Kimpton hotel has bunk beds and Xbox consoles, and even offers babysitting services."
- Money Magazine, March 2012
"As the name of the hotel suggests, Hotel Rouge celebrates all things red. From red paintings and sculptures to red flowers, bedding and decor, Hotel Rouge is perhaps the most vibrant boutique hotel in all of D.C. Hotel Rouge boasts a kid-friendly suite with bunk beds and entertainment center including an Xbox 360 gaming system and classic board games, plus a "mini mini-bar" filled with scrumptious snacks."
- CBS Washington, February 2012
"What better way to celebrate a birthday than with a stiff drink? Kimpton's Hotel Rouge recently reopened the doors to Bar Rouge with decadent red walls and new savory plates to share (we like the lamb meatballs and tangy asparagus salad.) Opt for a cocktail or one of the new assortment of wines on tap, and lounge on a cozy velvet banquette before heading upstairs."
- Washington Flyer Magazine, September 2011
"Welcome to Bar Rouge, the intimate little lounge in the Hotel Rouge, now reborn with a panoply of new drinks, small plates and canoodling-ready nooks. You'll want to show up at happy hour, when you can get red or white wine (on tap, no less) or the house punch for four bucks. But you can also claim a seat for the long haul."
- UrbanDaddy, June 2011
"Swanky and sumptuous in shades of crimson, the lounge that's adjacent to Hotel Rouge recently re-invented itself as a neighborhood wine bar, with a globally-focused wine list, seasonal small plates, and well-crafted cocktails courtesy of the immensely talented Manager/Mixologist Rico Wisner."
- Washington Life Magazine, June 2011
"College students apparently aren't the only ones who enjoy cold pizza for breakfast. Every weekend morning, chefs at the Hotel Rouge in Washington, D.C. set up a table in the lobby stocked with cold pizza from the night before, and hungry travelers never fail to gobble it up."
