Alexander Gardner's Civil War Views

The 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

Best 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

Savantha Georgia

Beautiful hotel . Great customer service. I'd stay again.

Greg Fuller

Nice 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.

Stephanie

Great boutique hotel and location next to many nice shops and restaurants . Pets always welcome and free wine at happy hour is always a plus.

Ben A

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 Parness

If 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 Kessel

Most dog friendly hotel anywhere. Also, best location in Old Town . Nice staff , rooms nicely appointed. Hard to tell it was once a Holiday Inn .

Rachel K

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 Rosol

Great 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.

I've yet to stay at a Kimpton I don't love. Rooms are large and quiet .

it'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.

Rooms 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 Cangialosi

Staff 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.

Wicaksono Arief

Cozy and great hotel . Has happy hours for free wine every weekend

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.
