Embassy Suites by Hilton Alexandria Old Town

Loved the breakfast. That is a primary motivator for me at any Embassy Suites. The staff was great. You really can't beat the location and the access to the Metro. Fly or drive to DC and access to anything is easy.

The manager's reception in the evening was meager as far as food was concerned. I have seen much better at other Embassy Suites. The parking rates were outrageous. You pay parking rates that are the equivalent of buying your car a room at other hotel chains.

What a great find!!!!

Arrived by train at 915AM on check in day, expecting to leave bags and check in later, what a pleasant surprise to find out a room was ready and we could move in. The staff were all friendly and helpful, the breakfast was a great start to our day, and was by no means meager pastries and fruit, but eggs, sausage, potatoes, waffles, French toast,, oatmeal, grits, and more! The nightly managers reception with drinks, and snacks was a great touch to the end of the day. The hotels location could not be more convenient for travel, Amtrak, and D.C. Metro stations mere steps away, in addition to the The King Street free Trolley. I saw many families enjoying the Hotels amenities as well. We did not park here but the price seemed comparable or less than other area hotels, the price for our Amtrak tickets was about what it would have cost to park, without fuel costs or a stressful drive from Norfolk. Nothing fell short of our expectations, and we will likely make this trip again.

We were welcomed by a very friendly receptionist, her name was Leah. She was very helpful in checking us in.
