remarkable

Standing out significantly

Remarkable describes something worthy of notice or comment—standing out from the ordinary.

A remarkable achievement exceeds expectations; a remarkable coincidence seems too striking to ignore.

The word often carries admiration: She made remarkable progress.

But remarkable can be neutral, simply noting that something deserves attention: It's remarkable how quickly rumors spread.
