Hamid Alan9aryFebruary 27, 2021We enjoyed our short stay here. The room was clean and tidy. location of hotel is near attractions & restaurants. Special thanks to Ahmad and rest of staff for making us feel welcomed 🙏🏽
Alexander Gardner's Civil War ViewsAugust 7, 2011The hotel stands on the spot once occupied by the Marshall House. It was here that Col. Elmer Ellsworth was shot dead by its proprietor on May 24, 1861, becoming the first casualty of the Civil War. Read more- Greg SilvaApril 19, 2013Best customer service. It was my son's birthday and they went out of the way to make him feel special. Card, cupcake , and ever a present from the staff. Couldn't ask for more
Beautiful hotel. Great customer service. I'd stay again.
Greg FullerMarch 16, 2018Nice hotel right on the Main Street in Alexandria. Rooms were nice. Only negative would be the parking garage that was under construction when we were there.- StephanieJune 7, 2013Great boutique hotel and location next to many nice shops and restaurants. Pets always welcome and free wine at happy hour is always a plus.
Fitness room is small; Look up the Mt Vernon Trail, it is only a couple blocks away and offers great views of the Potomac and DC.
Rory ParnessMay 24, 2014If you are tired from walking up and down King street, pop into the lobby, rest on some comfy couches and watch the bridal parties go by.
Barry KesselJune 27, 2013Most dog friendly hotel anywhere. Also, best location in Old Town. Nice staff, rooms nicely appointed. Hard to tell it was once a Holiday Inn.- The 5pm wine happy hour is crowded with hotel guests drinking in the lobby. Take it to the patio if the weather is nice.
Maire RosolMarch 26, 2011Great staff & aervice. My flight was very late & checked in to hotel at 3 AM. Y I was sooo thirsty & they brought a pepsi & a glass of ice to my room. Talk about caring about the guest.
Rooms are nice and the meeting space is great. Good place for family and friends. It's close to the water.
Wine happy hour for the win Alex. What is one of the amenities that makes this a great hotel?
Gregory RMarch 2, 2014it's ok. could use a little attention to detail in rooms. I was on the top floor. Room had a single, small window. room itself was like so many business hotel rooms. Wired internet was fast.
M. MOT.March 31, 2019Rooms are big, beds are small. Don't ask for top floor (6th) A/C has to be running all the time to keep the room cold enough & windows are too small. Definitely needs some updates!
Courtney CangialosiDecember 7, 2011Staff is super friendly. Request a goldfish for your room. Also enjoy the free wine hour from 5-6 pm with a kids hour at 4-5.
Cozy and great hotel. Has happy hours for free wine every weekend
Nicole GauvinOctober 24, 2011Books holiday party or event at the Hotel Monaco before November 1st and you can choose to have 5% of food and beverage costs donated to AWLA.
Billy BouliaJune 19, 2011Great hotel!! Pet lovers abound. Amazing staff and great quality. I will definitely be coming back soon!!
- Maire RosolMarch 26, 2011Great staff & aervice. My flight was very late & checked in to hotel at 3 AM. Y I was sooo thirsty & they brought a pepsi & a glass of ice to my room.
JessicaJanuary 8, 2012Beautiful interior & free hot cider or lemonade (seasonal) in the lobby sometimes
If you happen to get a room next to housekeeping (204, for example) don't be surprised if you can hear the Hispanic ladies yapping away in there all day long. Loudly.
Customer service has gone waaaay down since it became the Alexandrian.
Make sure to go around the corner to Lavender Moon for cupcakes- If you bring your dog, they'll provide the pup with a special bed
David JoneAugust 24, 2010Hey guys, say the word “Popsicle” at check-in within August. They’ll have a surprise for you!
- Courtney CangialosiDecember 7, 2011Also ask to see Charlie the dog who is in charge of pet relations.
