Westin Hotels in Alexandria

Mein Mann und ich feiern unser Jahrestagsende im Lorien Hotel und Spa. Unsere Entscheidung, dort zu bleiben, war teilweise aufgrund des Kundenservices, bevor wir das Zimmer sogar reserviert haben. Der Sternenservice setzte sich fort, als wir ankamen. Ashley kümmerte sich wirklich um uns während unseres Aufenthalts, um mir unseren Geburtstag noch besonders zu helfen. Wir reservierten eine Terrasse Suite, die genau wie in den Fotos aussieht - schön! Plus, es war sehr sauber. Die Lage des Hotels befindet sich auf der ruhigeren Seite der King Street, die mit erstaunlichen Lebensmitteln und Einkaufen entlang der Wanderung zum Fluss verbunden ist. Wir arbeiten bereits an Plänen, bald wieder nach Alexandria zurückzukehren. Die Lorien wird von nun an unsere Lage des Hotels sein. Kim und Marcus

Our family of 5 stayed here for a week. Everything was clean and in good working order, the staff was pleasant and helpful and the location was close to everything we needed. Parking was easy and free and breakfast was adequate. We felt the fitness center was larger than expected. We REALLY appreciated the daily housekeeping at this property as that doesn’t seem to be common these days. Though this hotel doesn’t have a pool, there are several community pools within 15 min of the property that allow you to swim for a small fee. We went to the one in Old Town and an indoor one at a recreation complex and greatly enjoyed it. Though we found this on our own, it would be great if hotel staff could recommend these options.

The person at the front desk when I checked in was wonderful.

Gute Gastfreundschaft

I am glad I didn’t pay full price ($350/night) for this. Great location and everything looks nice from the outside and the lobby. The room is decent from the looks but once you stay in there, you will realized nothing is working properly. The AC/Heater was not working, the control for the AC/Heater doesn’t work so the AC was blasting cold air all night on NYE!!! So we were both freezing and it was 2am! The TV only have 5 channels and 2 are the same as the other 2, so in reality only 3 channels. The TV quality is also very outdated. Feel like we were watching TV from the 80s/90s when it was the actual 2024 NYE concerts. And on the 5th channel, it is just showing how DirectTV subscription is expired, like what? The Wifi in the room is not free unless you are a Bonvoy member. There was less than a quarter roll of toilet paper on the Tp dispenser and they also didn’t provide a second roll. The body wash pump was empty and the shampoo ran out. The bottom side of the toilet seat looks very filthy as if they haven’t clean that part of the toilet seat in a while. The floor of the bathroom was also very dirty. We usually check if we can ask for a late check-out the night before, but we called the front desk with no answers. When they finally answered, they said we have to call back at 7am to let us know. Ehh Hello? The whole point of getting a late check out is so we can sleep in? So I had to set an alarm to call back at 7am to get a 1pm check out. It was a bit annoying. This was a big disappointment for me because this was supposed to be a nice hotel from Marriott as the Autograph Collection. Especially for $350 a night in the middle of Old Town Alexandria, I had expected better quality. Not to mention the chaos during check-in. Seems like there were only 4 workers there for HUNDReDs of customer. People were angry about being stuck in the parking garage and no one can help them and they gave a lady a room that currently already have someone checked-in. Apparently the lady opened the door when the guy was showering in the room. What a chaos!

Das Hotel war in einer wunderbaren Stadt nicht zu weit von DC entfernt. Die Architektur war erstaunlich, und das Zimmer hatte eine ganz einzigartige Einrichtung. Service war gut und ich hatte keine Beschwerden.

Second time-even better! We chose this hotel again because of its proximity to the Metro and Old Town. It was a win-win on both accounts. We loved walking around the area and eating locally plus we loved having easy access to DC for the museums etc. Our room was spacious and comfortable with a large desk for the bit of work we needed to do. The Wi-Fi was free but I had trouble with it using AT&T but my partner has Verizon and had no issues. I did love the digital key on the app. It didn’t work a couple of times as my Wi-Fi was iffy at times in and near the room. We went to the diner next door for more reasonable breakfast prices.

Insgesamt gebe ich diesem Aufenthalt 5 Sterne. Das Personal an der Rezeption war SEHR freundlich! Die Location ist episch! Während aufgrund von Covid 19 derzeit kein Reinigungsservice angeboten wird, kamen jeden Tag Haushälterinnen ins Zimmer, um alle gewünschten Zimmerartikel (z. B. Kaffee-Pflegehandtücher) abzugeben. Das Hummingbird Restaurant ist geöffnet und lecker. Weitere Informationen: Parken auf einem Stadtdeck direkt hinter dem Hotel für deutlich weniger Geld als Hotelparkplätze. Die Wände im Hotel sind SEHR dünn - ich habe meine Telefongespräche buchstäblich mithören können (& ähm ... andere Aktivitäten).
