In the heart of Old Town. Walk to anything Absolutely the best Bellman I have ever encountered. Lots of really good restaurants (and the riverfront) are just down the street. An interesting note: the mixture of the carpet and the wallpaper in the upstairs hallways will make you feel like you've stepped into an Escher (sp?) drawing.

We had a great stay at the Alexandrian! Wgat a wonderful location, right in the bustling area of the shops and restaurants, closest to the waterfront of all the hotels in that area. Easy to park in their garage. Free trolley right across the street takes you up and down King Street. Spacious rooms with a fridge and keurig on the room. Wonderful staff, Angie at the front desk went above and beyond to find us a room with early check in availability. My only complaint would be that the mattress was too firm for my liking but the linens and pillows were great. Really cool bathroom! Easy proximity to get to Wasington DC if you choose-was a ten minute, $20 lyft ride or you could take the subway or bus. We loved our stay!
