I stayed at this hotel because I have heard some good things about the Kimpton brand and wanted to try something new and got tired of looking at the same boring cookie cutter hotels with all of the traveling I have been doing. This hotel definitely cured me of that was a real treat! Let me start by saying that... More

Again, my husband and I booked a Kimpton hotel for an impromptu stay-cation, and again they delivered! We use a free hotel booking service that offers discounts to 4 and 5 star hotels throughut the world (www.SniqueAway.com) and they frequently offer Kimpton hotels for a largely discounted rate. This hotel is beautiful. We chose the loft suite that was amazing!... More

I just got home from a wonderful one nite stay at the Monaco. We arrived just in time for the evening wine reception which was very well run and we enjoyed our wine in the very cozy living room. The service was top notch and special thanks to Jessie for being so warm and accommodating. The rooms were clean and... More

In December we were burying our Son SSgt Sean Ferguson at Arlington National Cemetary. He died in Badgdad on November 14th. When the hotel staff heard why we were in Alexandria they went out of their way to make our stay and pleasant and as painless as possible under the circumstances. They bent over backwards to make sure our transportation... More

The staff of the Hotel Monaco were outstanding! They made me feel extremely welcome after a year abroad. The hotel was the perfect place to relax and enjoy a good rest, great food (fried chicken Friday at Jackson 20!), a long, hot bath...I can't say enough. From the moment I opened the door to my room (well, it really started... More

While everyone is running around the center of D.C. schmoozing with the politicos, my assistant booked me into this boutique charmer outside the core in Alexandria. Great lobby, friendly staff, fabulous wine hour between 5-6pm weekdays and luscious rooms complete with animal print robes hanging in the closet. I noted the CVS kitty-corner to the hotel which was a plus... More

The lobby gives the impression of a mix of funky comfort, but employees are all caring professionals. The King Deluxe room was perfectly appointed, spacious, clean and the lighting perfect. It was nice to be able to open my room's windows. I wanted a room with the fuji bathtub, but it was booked. I was pleasantly surprised at how much... More
