Reviews The Residences at Thomas Circle
June 2026
I love very thing especially the resident and all the staff
June 2026
This is a great community! The staff and the residents are very welcoming. I would highly recommend this community to anyone who lives in the DC area.
June 2026
What makes The Residences at Thomas Circle stand out isn't just its location in the heart of Washington, DC ” it's the people who bring it to life every day. I have seen firsthand how a management team that invests in its staff can transform a building into a genuine community, and that is exactly what has happened here. The team members here are engaged, passionate, and deeply committed to the residents they serve. That kind of culture doesn't happen by accident ” it is cultivated, and it is something worth recognizing publicly.
June 2026
I have had the pleasure of working with The Residences at Thomas Circle and this place is the kind of community that reminds you why this work matters! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the difference that a dedicated, well-supported team makes. DC has no shortage of luxury living options, but what sets this community apart is its people. When management prioritizes its staff, that investment ripples outward ” and here, residents are the direct beneficiaries of that commitment. This team shows up, and it is a genuine pleasure to be part of their circle. Highly recommend!
June 2026
I recently came for a tour with my elderly Aunt at the Residences at Thomas with Addis. Let’s just say I was impressed. The facility was not only beautiful but the caregiving staff was extremely sweet. In just one visit it’s likely that we will stop touring other facilities!
June 2026
The staff, especially Addis, are all wonderful and helpful. I have placed many of my Court appointed wards there with great success.
May 2026
Excellent service
May 2026
My dad (age 87) has been at The Residences at Thomas Circle for almost 4 months now. The team at TC is simply amazing and so very caring. They are truly an extension of our family. My dad enjoys the variety of activities from professional musicians visiting to art classes and outings to DC restaurants and museums. This weekend they had a fantastic Kentucky Derby party! I am not sure how we would get through this phase of life without TC.
May 2026
I moved into my Independent Living apartment at the Residences at Thomas Circle in early March 2026. I am just as comfortable as in the home I left behind, and living here is enriching my life. I’ve gotten to know many of the other residents and enjoyed their company at meals and during some of the great activities available here, including social events, musical performances, lectures, special interest groups like the Poetry Club, and field trips to DC museums, theaters, and restaurants. The dining room provides everything from gourmet dinners to casual lunches (my favorite”chili dogs and sweet potato tots). Thomas Circle provides excellent logistical support to Independent Living residents: examples include the many dedicated individuals who operate the Concierge Desk around the clock; housekeeping staff who discretely keep apartments and public areas spotless; and transportation staff with a mastery of DC geography who often provide a helping hand from door to door. I have especially appreciated getting to know Alberto, a member of the maintenance staff, whose patience, helpfulness, skill, and congeniality make it a pleasure to have his company for a few minutes as he performs tasks ranging from plumbing to picture hanging. I am also benefitting from the onsite physical therapy resources available here.
February 2026
We toured several places while trying to decide where to place my grandmother, and choosing The Residences at Thomas Circle ended up being one of the best decisions our family could have made. From the very beginning, the administration and nursing staff stood out in a way that immediately put us at ease. They didn’t just talk about care, they showed it in how they listened, how they answered our questions, and how they treated my grandmother as a whole person, not just a resident. TBH I kind of wishes it was me staying there. Making this transition is emotional and scary, and we carried a lot of worry about whether she would truly feel safe, comfortable, and seen. But the team here took the time to learn her routines, her personality, and the little things that matter to her day-to-day. That level of attentiveness meant everything to us. Communication has always been thoughtful and reassuring, and we’ve consistently felt supported and included in her care. The environment is warm, clean, and genuinely caring, and you can feel the heart behind how this community is run. Most importantly, we know she is safe, respected, and treated with real kindness every day, which is a RELIEF since I don’t live close by.
December 2025
Leaving my original review from a year ago below, but adding this update. Thomas Circle has proved absolutely wonderful -- we couldn't be happier with our decision to make it Mom's home. The team, lead by Sena and Addis, provide highly competent care that supports Mom's physical, emotional and mental health. A genuine sense of friendship and kindness informs every staff interaction -- Mom seems calmer, happier and very well cared for, which is such a gift to our family. It's a pleasure to spend time at TC and to know that even when we're not with her, she's in capable and caring hands. (and from 2024: While it's early days for my mom at Thomas Circle, I have been blown away by the kindness, responsiveness and professionalism of the team there during Mom's transition to assisted living. Laticia did an amazing job guiding us through the leasing process. Akira couldn't have been a better partner in getting Mom moved in and settled. Addis has provided wise advice and responsive care for Mom's health needs. Sena, the CEO, has been present, accessible and engaged throughout the transition. And Mom loves her apartment and has already made real connections with her new neighbors with the help of the wonderful staff. Thank you, TC, for making a hard change easier in every way.)
December 2025
Every staff member at Thomas Circle is such a pleasure to work with. I get excited everytime I get to visit
November 2025
My dear mother is living her best life, thanks to the Residences at Thomas Circle. She has a comfy apartment in the assisted living section. The staff strike a perfect balance of being on hand when she needs help while giving her space to live with as much independence as possible. We are super impressed with the caring professionalism of all the staff, medical, dining, activities, administrative, janitorial, you name it, they are terrific. The on-site physical therapy, hair salon, bistro, and movie theater are great resources that contribute to the high quality of life my mother is experiencing. The other residents are friendly and welcoming. My mom and I love spending time with this new group of friends. We often share a cup of coffee and conversation in the bistro. The Residences at Thomas Circle is wonderful in every way!
November 2025
Lovely staff and good accommodations!
November 2025
I wanted to share my recent experience touring The Residents of Thomas Circle. To my pleasant surprise, I was able to schedule a tour at a time that was convenient for me, and I was delighted to find that the visit exceeded my expectations. The facility is exceptionally clean, and the staff were very welcoming. The Resident Service Director was fantastic in answering all of my questions, and I never felt rushed. The atmosphere was genuinely warm and inviting. It was heartening to see the actual residents looking happy and content to live there. The dining room was spotless, and the food looked freshly prepared and appetizing. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised when the Director of The Residents of Thomas Circle stopped to introduce themselves to me. It truly added a personal touch to the visit and made me feel even more confident in the quality of care provided. Thank you for making the tour such a positive and informative experience.
October 2025
A small group of Howard U and Hampton U took a guided tour of three amazing residences and we're impressed with a unique dining experience, Hosted by Donna Gayles. Who knew senior living could be so comprehensive and homey!
October 2025
I want to just say to everybody looking for a place to live the community is beautiful! The food is wonderful, everyone is nice. Donna Gayles is a very, very beautiful person and I my review for her all I can say she’s a great person to talk to explain things about the life at Thomas Circle to you and help you with the situations. I give her a 10 out of 10 and above better than Karamo! I thank you so much Thomas Circle. I have a friend who is a currently a happy resident there and hopefully I’ll be a resident there soon too!
October 2025
My husband has lived at Thomas Circle since June 2024. The staff is warm and attentive, and the apartment in which he lives is comfortable with a great view of Massachusetts Avenue. It is also very convenient for me, as his caretaker, since it is less than four blocks from our home. We also cannot say enough about Tyronne! It is a great relief to me to know that my husband is somewhere safe where he can continue to live independently.
August 2025
My husband, Peter and myself just returned home from visiting with our loved one, who recently moved into Thomas Circle. When we arrived at the residence, we were thrilled to see how beautiful and clean it was. We were doing all our research from New York. We were extremely fortunate to have worked with Donna Gayles, who is the Relations Director. Donna spent endless hours of her own time talking to us and communicating by email and texts Besides clearly seeing how she loves her job and helping people, she also took a personal interest in making sure every aspect of the move in and transition process ran smoothly. She made sure that she met our loved one. After many weeks of communication, we finally had the pleasure of meeting Donna in person, and watch her in action. From Donna, and all the other staff we met this week, we left Thomas Circle knowing our loved one is safe, and being well taken care of. We highly recommend Thomas Circle!
August 2025
Most amazing experience: the food is expertly chef prepared; wonderful service; accomodations are to die for!! I have been on more than five activies with transportation! I have enjoyed plays, musical events and dancing of all sorts!! Unbelievable great time!!! Donna is always awesome, very good at what she does!
August 2025
Staff are friendly and perfersonal. I will definitely consider living there. Thank you Donna for the tour.™
August 2025
I enjoyed the company and the atmosphere. I felt safe and welcoming to the community and what it had to offer. I definitely will consider living here long-term. I appreciate the staff and how they treat elder folks, whether you can walk or not. Thank you Donna Gayles for the invitation.
August 2025
The residence is lovely and Ms Gayles with whom we met was very informative & gracious.
July 2025
The tour guide was very professional and knowledgeable.
June 2025
I recently had the opportunity to connect with The Residences at Thomas Circle while searching for an assisted living facility for my mother. Although my mother’s current medical condition ultimately ruled out the possibility of her becoming a resident, I was incredibly impressed by the level of support and care extended to me during this process, particularly by Community Relations Counselor, Laticia Rogers. Laticia went above and beyond in every sense. She took the time to speak with me in depth about a variety of resources and support systems that could potentially benefit my mother. What stood out most was her willingness to personally visit my mother at her current medical facility to better understand her needs and offer a more informed perspective on local options within the DMV area. Throughout all of our interactions, Laticia was not only highly knowledgeable and professional, but also genuinely kind and compassionate. Her recommendations have proven to be immensely helpful, and I am deeply grateful for the time, energy, and personal attention she provided. Even though my mother won’t be joining the Thomas Circle community, I now have an extremely positive impression of their commitment to service and advocacy”thanks entirely to Laticia’s outstanding efforts. If this level of care and dedication is any indication of what residents and families can expect at The Residences at Thomas Circle, then I would wholeheartedly recommend considering this community for your loved ones.
May 2025
My father is having a wonderful time at the Residences at Thomas Circle. He moved in a couple of months ago and is already making friends. I feel really blessed that we found this place for him.
May 2025
I cannot say enough how much I love The Residences at Thomas Circle. My mom recently moved there and loves her new apartment. The residences are very clean, and the staff are all very courteous and professional. Also, they have a large variety of delicious food options, weekly happy hours and several daily activities for the residences. Family and friends are always welcome to not only visit, but also participate in the various activities. Donna, Akira and the entire staff at the residences of Thomas circle are amazing!
April 2025
I’ve lived here for more than a year now and it’s very comfortable. The staff is very accommodating and efficient. There are some issues with the infrastructure, but they’re working on fixing those. The location is super. try it. You’ll like it.
April 2025
Words can hardly express how grateful my family is for the incredible care my mother received at The Residences at Thomas Circle. From the very beginning, the staff treated her with such compassion, dignity, and kindness ” not just as a patient, but as a beloved individual. Their attentiveness, warmth, and professionalism brought us so much peace during a difficult time. My mother was truly cared for, and for that, I will be forever thankful.
April 2025
On Saturday, March 29th I had the awesome opportunity to join the residents and staff for a Tea Around Town Double-Decker Bus Tour of Washington, DC. The weather was perfect and the Cherry Blossoms were in peak bloom. The sights and sounds of DC were amazing and the tea, treats and entertainment on the Bus were memorable!! After the Bus Tour, we were treated to a tour of The Residences at Thomas Circle by Donna Gayles, Community Relations Director. Oh my goodness, I was so very impressed with the facility and all of the well appointed community rooms, the apartments, amenities and the outdoor patio, to name a few. All of the residents that we encountered had big smiles and were actively engaged in various activities and living, in my opinion, a vibrant, energetic, engaging and joyful independent senior lifestyle, it's exactly what I desire to maintain for myself!!! The staff members we met were helpful, cheerful and by observing their interactions with the residents, were authentically connected. I saw a calendar for the month that included listings of daily events, special events, outings and entertainment options. It was near dinner time, and as we walked by the Dining Room and viewed the evening's menu, we also saw several of the plated options on display. They looked absolutely delicious and Donna invited us to stay for dinner. Unfortunately, we accepted a "rain check" for another day due a previously scheduled evening event. I can say with confidence, when the time comes in my life, when I want to continue my vibrant lifestyle and move into the heart of downtown Washington, DC, to be closer to all of the things I love about the city, entertainment, museums, shopping, restaurants, etc, not to mention that in addition to the option for independent living, they offer assisted living, short term care and memory care, The Residences at Thomas Circle, with God's blessings, is my choice!!! Many thanks to Donna and her staff for a amazing tour of The Residences and for the fun filled experience of the Tea Around Town Bus Tour!! I look forward to staying connected and attending upcoming events! Blessings, Denise
April 2025
I have been living here three years and I love it! I have made good friends. I love the service and the concierge staff. I attend the paint and sip classes, the daily exercise class with Reggie, and I enjoy meeting my friends for lunch or dinner.
April 2025
We were graciously invited to indulge in a delightful tea around town, which was lovely outing. The afternoon unfolded with a captivating tour of the facility, showcasing its unique features and inviting ambiance. As the grand finale, we were treated to an extraordinary meal that was nothing short of a culinary masterpiece, each bite bursting with flavor and creativity.

My family and I are incredibly grateful for the care and compassion Donna Gayles and the Thomas Circle team provide. From the moment we walked in, we felt a sense of warmth and support.

I cannot say enough great things about The Residences at Thomas Circle. From my first visit, I felt welcomed by the kind and compassionate staff.

They treat everyone with dignity and respect, and it’s clear that they genuinely care about the well-being of each resident. The activities and social programs are fantastic, keeping residents active and connected.

I have now been a resident for two months and find that everything more than meets my expectations. My brother and sister are also here. For an urban senior living facility, it can't be matched. The staff is extremely professional, caring and friendly, as are the residents. The numerous program offerings, which are provided on a weekly and monthly printed schedule, have been described in other reviews. I recommend that you schedule an appointment for an inspection and tour of the facilities.
December 2024
This community is amazing!!! Great location, Staff and Residents! Love spending time at this community!
November 2024
Several months ago I set out to find a Senior Living Community for myself. I've reached the point where I can do most things but It's clear that that is changing and I want to be in a safe, supportive environment as my needs change. I interviewed at least 35 communities in Maryland, Virginia and the District. NOTHING compares to the Residences at Thomas Circle (RTC). The comfort, care and excellence they are committed to is obvious in every aspect of life at RTC. It is particularly evident in the top notch culinary experience (GREAT food). It also shines in the too-many-to-name list of amenities which is far longer than any other facility in the area: Wi-Fi/internet, a fitness center, art studio, an onsite GWU office staffed by nurses and doctors (IMPORTANT), live musical performances, rehab facility, swimming pool, complimentary transportation, educational speakers, library, movie theater, grocery shopping, laundry service, covered parking to name but a few. Honestly I could go on for pages. The most important thing to me, however, is the staff. In truth I have never met such an unusual group of people in one place. Starting with Tee Yonker, my first contact, I was immediately impressed by her kindness, warmth, caring, sincere interest in helping me find whatever I needed, even if it wasn't RTC. When I came for a visit I realized the staff writ large (management, concierge, dining, housekeeping, driving, gym and rehab staff) are extraordinary. They think nothing of going well out of their way to help a resident. Even Sena, the Executive Director and busiest person there, spent an hour with me during which she listened, asked questions and decided I needed to be seen by a professional at GWU Clinic. She called and got me an appointment that afternoon. That's amazing care, especially for someone who is a guest. So here's to you Tee, Sena, Donna, Akira, Natalie, Maria, Victoria, Daneesha, Helen, Rashira, Priscilla - just to name a few! Thanks to you I made the decision to join RTC and am now the proud occupant of my own apartment. Life is good. T H A N K Y O U !!!!!!!!!!

This place is the best residence home for seniors that I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen about six. Plus Laticia gives an excellent tour. Check it out and many thanks. Patrice.
November 2024
My mom and mother-in-law both live here (in independent living and memory care) and we have been very happy with the community and the quality of services and care. TC is homey, the independent living community and activities are great, and the memory care staff are generally caring and professional.
November 2024
My parents have been living at The Residences at Thomas Circle for almost a year now, and we’re so happy we chose this community. The independent living units are clean and comfortable, and we were lucky to find a 1BR with a den that made their move from their home of 50+ years so much easier. The residents here are wonderful”a really interesting mix of people from all walks of life and backgrounds, which makes the community feel vibrant and diverse. The staff is amazing too. From the housekeeping crew to the dining and kitchen teams, maintenance, and management, everyone goes out of their way to make my parents feel at home. Honestly, sometimes I forget we’re in DC because everyone here is so warm and kind”definitely not what you expect in a big city. One thing we really love is having the GW Medical Faculty Associates team right in the building a few days a week. It’s so convenient for quick check-ins and care. Plus, having nurses and home aides available when needed has been a huge relief for us. Knowing there’s that extra layer of support makes a big difference. The front desk staff is also fantastic”they greet every visitor with so much respect and courtesy. There’s a ton of variety in the activities here, so there’s always something for everyone, no matter their needs, abilities, or health. The dining services are another highlight. The team is incredible”we’re on a first-name basis with most of them, and it’s clear they really care about the residents. They remember everyone’s names, preferences, and even how they like their food cooked. Our favorite night is Tuesday when the Chef does themed dinners”Caribbean, French, Italian, Indian, and more. He even sets up a chef’s table where he cooks on the spot, which gives the residents a chance to connect with the team. It’s such a fun way to show appreciation, and it really makes the place feel like an extended family. The location is also super convenient, and having garage access makes visiting easy. All in all, we couldn’t be happier with The Residences at Thomas Circle!
November 2024
The staff at Thomas Circle were incredibly receptive and responsive during a stressful time. The welcome they provided during a short term respite day must bode well for those who choose to make Thomas Circle their permanent home. We will be forever grateful for their help and caring during these few weeks.
November 2024
As a long-time partner working with The Residences at Thomas Circle, I can confidently say this place is a hidden gem that stands out in every way. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing their top-notch hospitality firsthand, and each visit leaves me impressed all over again. The culinary experience here is truly a highlight. I look forward to every opportunity I get to partake in the cuisine in the dining room and at events. The meals are consistently delicious, seasoned to perfection (IYKYK), and clearly made with care and skill. It’s rare to see such thoughtful cuisine in a residential SENIOR setting, and it genuinely makes a difference for everyone who has the pleasure of dining here. Beyond the fantastic food, the team at The Residences at Thomas Circle is what truly sets this community apart. The staff is warm, attentive, and genuinely cares about creating a welcoming environment. They treat everyone like family, and it’s clear they take pride in making the Residences feel like a real home for residents and visitors alike. The amenities and events are another standout feature. They offer a plethora of amenities (roof top pool, theater room with actual theater-like seats, multiple dining options, etc.) and off and on-site activities that foster a vibrant community atmosphere. From off-site regular trips to on-site programs on estate planning and genealogy, and uniquely themed social gatherings (Flower Power HH) that bring residents, their families, and prospective residents and their families together. It’s a joy to see the thoughtful effort they put into every detail, making this place a true gem. I've asked if I can move in but unfortunately I don't meet the age requirement and my kids would miss me ;-). For now, I will continue to visit whenever the opportunity presents. I am truly grateful for the partnership we’ve built over the years, and I wholeheartedly recommend The Residences at Thomas Circle to anyone looking for an independent living senior community that combines comfort, care, and excellence.

I have had the pleasure of developing a community relationship at the facility with Marketing Director Donna Gayles. Just last week, we collaborated with a lecture event on Patients with Dementia with future collaborations planned. . The team at the facility was welcoming and engaging with our hospice team. It is a warm environment that provides a family feeling for residents....
October 2024
I popped down for my third unscheduled visit in a year to check out the facility for my mother. Happy to report that on every visit I’ve consistently seen happy residents and caring employees interacting with each other. The facility is always clean and well maintained and feels genuinely inviting. Donna Gayle’s, on my most recent visit, was absolutely amazing with a heartfelt discussion and genuine interest in our situation.
October 2024
One word repeatedly came to mind when I toured this community: Family. The staff and residents are so familiar with each other and work together well. Sena, the Executive Director, leads with honesty and respect and this culture shows, as it flows down throughout Thomas Circle. Set in the sweet spot of DC, I can see why residence here is so sought after!
October 2024

This place is amazing! The management and all the staff really care about the residents. Recently renovated facility has plenty to offer: updated movie theatre, bistro and physical therapy room. Robert Meyer and his team provide outstanding service to all our requests. Perfect location with beautiful view of Washington D.C. roof top pool and like a fine dinning menu.

The Location of Thomas Circle in the center of DC is amazing. It is in the center of one of the best restaurant scenes in the world and close to all of the cultural activities in the city.

My mom had been reluctant to leave her condo in Virginia, where she spent 12 years in retirement with my dad before he passed. In her short time there so far, the community has embraced her and she only wishes that she had moved there sooner.

The folks at Thomas Circle's assisted living have been wonderful. All of the staff are friendly and supportive, and I'm very thankful for the attention they've given my mother. I'm happy knowing that she is in a safe place and getting the care she needs.

I attended a gala event at The Residences in March and had a wonderful time. The staff was attentive, the food was great, and I thoroughly enjoyed the conversations I had with residents. The live band and vocal performance were also a great addition to the evening, you can tell that members of that community value each other.

My family went back and forth on the next home for our mother, and we ultimately (and easily) decided on The Residencies. She’s now been there for six months, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. Admin is easy to work with and so courteous, and we are happiest about the care, esp with the head nurse, Addis, and working with the GW MFA doctors. This was such a big step to take, but so worth it.

One word: AMAZING! We moved our grandmother here several months ago. To say she has received top notch care would be an understatement. I would recommend The Residences at Thomas Circle to any family in the DMV. You will not be disappointed.

I've lived at RTC for three-and-half years. I've enjoyed the diversity of its population, the responsiveness of its leadership, and the variety of its on-site and off-site programming. RTC is a multicultural community with folks from many walks of life. The administration/staff skillfully guided us through the Covid-19 period . Now it is exciting that RTC is returning to a full range of programs, even some new ones. My one-room apartment is ideal for me. Two of my favorite programs are daily fitness and weekly TED talks. The shuttle service takes me to medical appointments, shopping trips, errands, and programs. Every community needs improvements. I'm confident that RTC's administration will make them.

I have lived here for 10 years and I am an active 93 year old! This is a rental community and I like the flexibility that I do not have to buy in. If you move here, you should try to get involved because there is so much to do! At Thomas Circle I enjoy daily exercise, spending time by the rooftop pool, reading, political discussions and the niceness of the people who work here. I like the residents and get along with everyone.

I visit the New Renovated Resident of Thomas Circle. The facility is beautiful inside and very clean and colorful everybody there is so friendly and helpful. I have been coming to this facility 4 +years they are very serious about providing the best care for their patients. I have met the RN on the floor and Director of Nursing and Executive Director over the years very pleasant kindhearted people and very professional. Every time I come there I watch how the interact with their patients and that put a smile on my face because when you help people it has to come from the heart, and I can see that when I am there in the facility. Yes, I would recommend this facility to my love ones!!!

I have found Thomas Circle to care for my mother in a very sincere manner, especially since my mother arrived unexpectedly last summer after an emergency occurred in her townhome. I found sincere caring individuals in each department that I work with and cooperation to help accomplish all necessary tasks as Financial POA. The nurses are readily available, although their daily schedule is most challenging. I call at least weekly to find out how my mother is in health and favorite activities. Thanks Thomas Circle!!
January 2022
Excellent facility! A family friend received fantastic care while they was here. Everyone was super nice and compassionate. Thank-you so much to the management and kind staff.

I have been very pleased with the care my sister has been getting in the memory care unit.

I am very happy with Thomas Circle. It is wonderful knowing that there are good, skillful and kind people available to help my Mom and Dad when they need it. I know they are safe and have a great apartment and access to lots of great services and amenities. The best thing about Thomas Circle is the excellent, kind and compassionate staff. It's also a really welcoming and happy environment. We are very pleased!

In August, I helped my aunt move from her apartment of 50 years to the Residences at Thomas Circle after a hospitalization. Though she'd been putting off moving for quite some time, the first day she spent in her new apartment, she said it was perfect, and she grew accustomed to Thomas Circle very quickly. It was very easy to arrange some home health care for her, because LifeMatters has an office in the building, and I was really impressed at how well the whole staff of Thomas Circle and the LifeMatters team worked together. I've enjoyed getting to know the other residents of the building when I've visited, and the location right in the heart of downtown DC is vibrant and filled with opportunities. The staff of Thomas Circle couldn't be more accommodating, and the food is very good. They offer morning fitness classes, movie nights, guest performers, trips to DC museums, a cocktail hour on Fridays-- the list goes on, and if you're a city person, the location can't be beat. I'd recommend the Residences at Thomas Circle to anyone who wants to be in the heart of Washington DC, with friendly, caring support and access to a ton of opportunities in the city.

The team is wonderful and I love it here. I came down from NY and have lived for 2 years. My favorite thing to do here is play poker and dinner with my friends. I would recommend anyone to live here !
October 2021
A close family member of mine is in the assisted living facility here. I feel that he’s been getting compassionate and attentive care from the staff, and it’s helped him get through the physical and mental challenges he’s faced since the injury that caused him to need this support. The pandemic has made it extremely difficult to have a clear day-to-day view of his life, but from everything I can see, this has been a good place for him to be.

The Residences at Thomas was a wonderful home for my husband (80) who has Parkinson! There was PT everyday and also Speech therapy. There were 24 hour Nurses on duty and available! Always secure with all precautions taken during this time of COVID. We are thankful for being able to find a caring home in this difficult time!

My sister was a resident in the Independent Living area of The Residences at Thomas Circle. The Residences at Thomas Circle is more than a place to stay. Residens can be as active and as busy, or not active or not busy, as they chose. The ammenities offered are extensive and provide many opportunities for the residents. However, the major benifit to living at the Residences at Thomas Circle is the staff and the staff's caring approach to the residents. The Resident Services Manager was expecially helpful and approached her position not as a chore to be done, but as a calliing to help others. That attitude and the extensive ammenities listed on the website make the Residences at Thomas Circle an ideal place for someone looking for Independent Living. Also, the presence of medical personel on site is an added bonus. I did not have any contact with the Assisted Living, Skilled Nursing, and Memory Care areas, but I assume that the same philosophy of resident care which I observed in the Independent Living Area guides the staff in those other areas
September 2021
This is an exceptional community. It’s a lively, inviting, yet relaxed and comforting environment that a couple of my friends have lovingly called home! There is such a warmth in the building not just because of its aesthetic appeal but because of the caring staff that works there. The entire supportive team from the physicians to the housekeeping staff have been great! I’ve had the pleasure of working with their team on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed! The recent renovations are lovely and the leadership of Sena Quist is equally delightful. She truly cares about each and every resident, which makes all of the difference in the world!
September 2021
My sister lived with me for 8 years before I found the Residences at Thomas Circle. They provide excellent care for her and the staff are great. They are familiar with the residents and their families, the facility is always clean, the food and food choices are delicious and freshly prepared, there’s many daily activities for the residents and it gives me a piece of mind knowing that my sister is being properly cared for by a 24 hour medical team. Living in a full apartment unit is truly the next best thing to living on her own. ‘ to the staff at services at the Residents at Thomas Circle.
September 2021
The staff here are totally amazing! My family was feeling so apprehensive about moving our loved one into assisted living, but they made the transition so easy! This isn't just another facility this place has proven to be a home and the staff have become family!

My connection to The Residences at Thomas Circle is multi- tiered and deeply felt. It begins with a belief that it is arguably the best retirement community in our area. I have had the privilege of knowing the truly remarkable woman who has served as its Medical Director for many years, a geriatrician who treated my own mother many years ago with the same care and gentleness that she now treats the current residents of Thomas Circle. In addition, let me mention the Director of Nursing, fondly known as Addis because her true name is quite difficult to pronounce. The day I met her was the day my adopted aunt was admitted to Thomas Circle for rehabilitation. My adopted aunt was very uncomfortable upon admission and what struck me was that the Director of Nursing stayed until 9pm the evening of that admission, until my friend was comfortably tucked into bed and finally sleeping. Addis always goes the extra mile and she sets an example every day for her staff! More recently I have had occasion to visit residents in Assisted Living and I find that the nursing staff are responsive to resident requests and are well versed in techniques sometimes needed in difficult situations. Further, there are many wonderful individuals who serve in various capacities supporting the services provided by Thomas Circle, such as the Executive Director, Resident Services Director ,the receptionist, Physician’s Assistant- all of whom I know-they are all engaged, committed and very special!

The staff is absolutely amazing! I was nervous about being away from my dad but I'm so happy that he is there and can call Thomas Circle home!

If you’re questioning on bringing someone here just do it. The staff were trustworthy and friendly. The management was responsive and connected with their community. The facilities are clean. Seriously, I am happy to have my father here.
August 2021
The new chef is amazing and the menu terrific. The new Memory Care Neighborhood is so beautiful, it's the perfect neighborhood and residents are well taken care of. Independent Living residents are busy and have so many interests to participate in, they just went to a local Irish Pub!

Staff and nurses are very good. Food is excellent!

Making the transition to move a loved one into an assisted living home is hard, but The Residences at Thomas Circle made it so easy and painless. The staff was wonderful and has made this move very comfortable for me and my familymore importantly my loved one. I am grateful to have found this establishment for my loved one and super grateful for the staff that oversees their care. Thank you!!!
July 2021
My mother has lived at Thomas Circle Independent living for almost 10 years. I realize now that the extensive activity calendar is meant to provide activities to all abilities and interests. Whereas Mom used to do more trips outside the community and independently, she now takes advantage of the many options closer to home and within the community. The staff is genuinely caring and patient. As a frequent visitor to the community, I’m always amazed at how the staff knows every resident, even the new folks. There are many long-term employees who are the core of the operation and are wonderful. I live a few hours away but rest easy knowing Mom is safe 24/7 with the caring staff and other safety procedures that are in place.

The staff at The Residences at Thomas Circle have been a godsend to my father and to our family. My father is thriving in memory care because of a caring and dedicated staff that insure that is he well cared for and safe. The staff, including nurses, program staff, and other staff are very kind, professional, accessible and responsive. My family is very happy and confident that we made the best choice for my dad's care.
June 2021
I placed my husband at RTC in February, before we were fully vaccinated and while all the Covid restrictions were still in place. The staff was so creative and helpful in navigating all the restrictions in a way that kept everyone safe but still made him feel welcome and at home. Since then, he has been diagnosed with two additional serious medical conditions. The care he has received throughout has been just excellent. And while he was initially very apprehensive about leaving home, now he happily says RTC is his home. He enjoys the staff tremendously, jokes and laughs with them constantly, and is no longer isolated at home, with only me and an occasional health care aide. He tells me he feels very well cared for there. He enjoys the company, loves the food, and in spite of all his serious medical conditions, is upbeat and happy. It is so good to see him contented and enjoying himself in the face of all these medical issues. I am so grateful to the wonderful staff. They are consistently caring, uplifting and pleasant. It’s a wonderful environment. Really so pleased to have him there.

The location is in the heart of DC. They have some onsite parking for residents and visitors- which is very helpful! My mother lived there for 15 years- 9 years in Independent Living and 5 years in Assisted Living. The management has changed about every 3 years, which has been frustrating. The staff has generally been very dear and caring towards the residents. The current admin is great to work with. It was an excellent place for my mother. I'm grateful for all they have done. My only real complaint is that the apartments in AL are not well suited for wheelchairs. They were never really modified. None of the sinks were accessible to someone in a wheelchair.
April 2021
I was extremely nervous to place my grandmother in any kind of home. If I had the ability to take care of her full-time, I would have preferred that. The people here will ease your concerns and take good care of your loved ones. The staff are extremely friendly and reliable and I really love the activities they provide, especially Natalie.
January 2021
If I had another living parent who was interested in independent living, I would look no further than to the Residences at Thomas Circle. The staff at TC is excellent - caring, considerate, amiable, and knowledgable. The apartments for independent living are well appointed and an in home care facility is on the premises, making scheduling an aide easy and affordable as they offer half hour increments. A PT studio and a beauty salon are also easy to get to on the Lower Lobby. The meals are quite good. The location of Thomas Circle is also great - close to several grocery stores, pharmacies, and entertainment once it opens again. A bonus to my mother who moved in Jan '21, she and all the residents and staff were vaccinated against Covid. I cannot speak more highly of my family’s experience with Thomas Circle, especially staff members Denise Kasper and Laticia Rogers, and Cameron Brumfield of Life Matters.
February 2020
Excellent staff and very good facility. My father was there for rehabilitation after a major surgery. He was very well taken care of and recovered very quickly.
December 2019
I went to the Residences for their rehab therapy program, and had an hour a day of physical therapy and occupational therapy each, with occasional therapy on the weekend. I was there five weeks and made great progress; the therapists were excellent and my time was well-spent. The rehab facility is small and the gym is one room--for me this was perfect. Lots of personal attention, casual, and friendly. I would highly recommend this program, especially to those who prefer this type of environment.
