Top Athenaeum Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Alexandria Old Town Area South

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, neat rooms, comfortable beds, friendly staff and very nice breakfast!"

Residence Inn Alexandria Old Town/Duke Street by Marriott

8/10 Good

"Very convenient hotel, kitchen facilities are great."

Hotel Indigo Old Town Alexandria by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel located in the heart of Old Town Alexandria. Minutes away from everything. The hotel staff was kind, courteous, and helpful. The property clean and has everything you would need, including parking! I would come back."

The King Street House by Kasa

10/10 Excellent

"The property was safe, clean and efficient. Has everything you need for a short or longer stay. Parking is the only issue in ALL of Old Town Alexandria. We found the best for us was to park at the (2 blocks away) Cameron Street parking lot. Bring luggage on wheels and walk the 2 blocks in. You can also unload at the door and then park. There is a CVS down the street for any medicines or forgotten needs. Milk and Honey next door was a great restaurant. Make renovations and sit on the 2nd floor for a romantic dinner for 2. We would stay here again in a heart beat!"

Hilton Alexandria Old Town

10/10 Excellent

"Great location near Metro and King Street. Clean and comfortable room. Only weird thing was the motion sensor light in the bathroom that turned off while in the shower. Nice staff and buffet breakfast"

Hotel Heron Alexandria Old Town, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Metal piece below sink fell off and bruised/cut my wife’s foot."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Alexandria Old Town

8/10 Good

"Perfect place to stay for the week specifically because of location. Less than a 2 minute walk from the hotel lobby to the metro or the old town trolley. LOVE LOVE LOVE the location. Not impressed with the breakfast options- it was the same all 6 days and while I’m fine with that, my children definitely were not. Also disappointed with the pool/spa. Dirty and not updated. We went the first night, left quickly and did not return. I was bummed as that was something I was looking forward to."

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, friendly staff lovely area"
