“Nicest hotel in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia”

Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

We come to Alexandria every Spring/Summer and usually are disappointed with the hotel choices. We were pleased to finally find this hotel and I would recommend it and stay here again. The staff was very kind and helpful and the hotel was clean and comfortable. Our room (Lorien Suite) had plenty of room and even though it overlooked the courtyard,... More

“Convenient & Comfortable”

Reviewed 11 May 2013

Easy access to King Street Metro for quick trip into the District. Kimpton staff was friendly and helpful. Variety of restaurant choices nearby as well as a Whole Foods. Solid internet connection with easy access. HVAC responsive to temperature settings. Usual Kimpton amenities with a great, large bathroom. Room was very quiet, but #211 had an odd corner window only,... More

My lady and I just had the best stay at the wonderful Lorien Hotel and spa in Alexandria! From check in to check out, all of the staff were very nice and helpful! After a pretty poor stay at the nearby Kimpton Monaco (see my review), I was hoping this would turn out better...boy did it! The doorpersons came across... More

Hi 1Jp1, I am sorry things did not work out at our nearby sister hotel, but I am glad you were willing to try another Kimpton hotel.

“Worth the Price”

Reviewed 9 May 2013

The Lorien is a block from the Metro and a short drive or bus ride to all Alexandria/King Street restaurants/activities. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the rooms are decorated with taste and are kept in great shape. Overall, one can't go wrong staying at the Lorien.

Hi Monty1424, I am glad you appreciated the condition and location of the hotel, and that you found our staff to be very friendly. We hope to see you again soon, Thomas More

“Comfortable stay”

Reviewed 8 May 2013

I was at the Lorien for a business function. Its a smaller hotel but the staff is very attentive to your needs. This being a Kimpton hotel, I am not usually concerned about quality and in this situation I was not disappointed. The room was very clean and relaxing, and beautifully/minimally appointed. The bed was very comfortable. The only concern... More

Hello Baltrx, I was pleased to note you had successful meeting experience with us and that you found our staff to be accommodating to your needs. I am sorry the meeting room temperature required adjustment, but was happy our Engineer was able to resolve the issue. When you come back for your next visit to explore Old Town, it will... More

“such a great experience”

I had such a great experience at this hotel! The location is beautifully decorated and the staff was friendly and helpful. I loved the high ceilings and decor in my room, and I have to admit, my favorite part of my room was my bathroom! the open shower and claw-foot tub were amazing. The location of the hotel is great,... More

Hi JC0516, I am glad you appreciated the décor and your wonderful spa like bathroom. I am sorry the trains running on the nearby Metro tracks up to DC caused a little disturbance for you, but as you indicated, we certainly have plenty of guest rooms that face the opposite direction. Yes, King Street certainly has countless boutique shops and... More

“Wonderful alternative to DC hotels - Super pet friendly”

This is my 2nd stay here and thought I should rate my experience at the Hotel Lorien. When we first pulled into the hotel we were pleasantly greeted by the valet, who was more than happy to assist with all of the luggage and paraphernalia we had for our four-legged travel companion. Check-in was a breeze and everyone within the... More
