Charming and comfortable

Carol and Paul Oct 30, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Great hotel with amazing staff! The room was quaint and comfortable and the hotel was conveniently located in the middle of ... Old Town. Only 15 minutes walk from the metro station, 10 minute drive from the airport, and 20 minutes from DC, this was the perfect spot to start and end our days. Only downside to this place was that our room was on the bottom floor, so it was a little noisy at times.

Time savers tip, Long Walk

Use the Metro, there is a free trolley that will take you up and down King Street, which will get you to the Metro station. The Metro will take you to DC and you can stop close to all the monuments. This will save time and money from parking. Be prepared to walk, every monument requires some walking.

Overall lovely experience! The staff is welcoming kind and helpful. Especially a wonderful young man, [...]. We hsd a great ... distance to travel for a Memorial Service and he gave us his personal GPS to use. We are not at all familiar with the DC area so he helped with what could have been a frustating and stressfull commute to Manassas. Thank you [...]!Well trained staff!!

Management dealt poorly with a double billing issue for the room -- was charged nearly 1000.00 for a room which was already ... paid. Did not return phone calls as promised.

First-rate service

Judy Jan 4, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

It's easy to see why The Morrison House is on lists of best places to stay in the DC/Alexandria area. The staff makes you ... feel as though you are the only guest staying there! The rooms are not large, but they're very comfortable (great beds!) and quiet. We didn't eat at the hotel's restaurant, but Alexandria offers a wide array of great places. Everything is within walking distance--the Old Town, waterfront, and Metro station (a quick 20-minute ride to the Smithsonian), and the King Street Trolley (half a block away) takes folks on the waterfront-Metro circuit for free. If you are travelling with kids, let the hotel staff know. They provide special treats for children (our granddaughter received a personal note, a camera, and some sustenance for long tours (chocolate bars).

Elegant Personal Service

Carolyn Jul 14, 2008

Would recommend to a friend!

The Morrison House staff greet you as soon as you arrive by taxi just feet from the front door. The public rooms reminds you ... of an elegant home in Williamsburg, Virginia, with delicious coffee, an excellent library, and attentive personnel. Our room was small but comfortable with a view onto the historic Old Town Alexandria. You are in the heart of wonderful shops, restaurants, and even a vintage movie theater. A short but interesting walk takes you down to the waterfront. The dining room provides gourmet dining and attentive waiters. We plan on staying in this gem of a hotel every time we visit our daughter who lives in Arlington.
