Urbana
A downtown dining hotspot adjacent to Hotel Palomar Washington DC Urbana strikes the perfect note. It is as much a destination restaurant as a neighborhood hangout. Linger over a glass of wine and delicious small plates at the bar or savor a full aromatic

Perfect Location

Proximity to Rock Creek Park and Metro red line is perfect. Great staff, and amenities. Loved the free boarding pass printing. Elevators were slow, but other than that, great hotel.

The hotel was pleasant for me and my two boys. All the staff was wonderful and very helpful. I loved the pool! Across the street is a great little bagel place and starbucks on the corner.

Family Getaway

We had an excellent one night stay at the Palomar. We upgraded to a 500 sq ft king bed room and were placed in a standard room. After some arguing with the front desk (who told us that they were booked and we were out of luck) they put us in a 500 sq ft room with two queen beds. The room was gorgeous and comfortable. There was a lot of noise at night - dogs barking, neighbors talking - but we live in the city so we're used to it. The pool was great and very kid and adult friendly.

chic & sexy

I am a makeup artist & love all things visual. When I opened the door I immediately dropped my bags & grabbed my camera! Wow, such a gorgeous room. I upgraded for $75 to a King Spa room with a Fuji Soaking Tub!! And there's a window cutout over the tub that lets you see the bed and the 32" tv. Or vice versa, meow! Going back to DC next week & already booked this room again!! Walking distance to all, great variety of restaurants.

Amazing Location and Beautiful Hotel

The hotel was elegant and classy. Beautiful location, close to Georgetown and Downtown DC but you need a cab. Beds are great and overall experience was 5 star!

Enhanced our stay in D.C.

We were in D.C. last weekend for the Earth Day Celebration. I didn't want to stay in a run of the mill hotel, so I found this one on Orbiz. All I can say is WOW! What a great hotel. We stayed in a Spa King Suite and it was beautiful. loved the huge jacuzzi bathtub. The restaurant, Urbana, was really good too. We also went to dinner at Scion right across the street. Had the best hamburger we've ever had there. There is also a great French bakery/breakfast place a couple of blocks down that was amazing. The hotel is so close to the Metro that it made it easy to get around the city. We will definitely stay there again when we are in D.C!

One of the best parts of Dupont Circle

This hotel was Wonderful! The staff was extremely nice and helpful in suggesting places to visit and eat. The room, well the room was the coolest room we have ever stayed in! We were in a spa king suite. The jacuzzi tub was huge, the bedroom was romantic with warm lighting and vibrant colors, and the living room/office was so practical yet comfortable. The restaurant, Urbana, was great. There's also a restaurant across the street, Scion, with the best burgers we have ever eaten. Down the street was Le Pain something (2 blocks down) with an awesome breakfast. Catching the Metro is easy from the hotel too. All in all, our experience at the Palomar made our trip to DC memorable and amazing!

Not too shabby!

Genuinely courteous and friendly staff, excellent service in all respects. Free wine at its friendly bar for happy hour. The hotel has a good restaurant, Urbana, and there is a plethora of nearby restaurants representing a wide range of prices and cuisines on P Street and nearby Dupont Circle. The hotel is attractive, the rooms are attractive, the exercise room is great with state of the art equipment. The bathrobes were unique and my wife wanted to take hers home. The only shortcoming was running out of hot water when I wanted to shower after exercising. The Palomar is now my go-to hotel in DC.
