Morrison house old town alexandria autograph collection

The 45-room Morrison House, a proud Autograph Collection hotel and the city’s only AAA four diamond hotel, is decidedly boutique. Guests delight in the intimate nature of a stay here where interacting with the staff and other guests comes naturally. The beautiful Federalist-style building is tastefully decorated with a nod to Alexandria’s Colonial past while embracing a modern look featuring every comfort. A literary touch can be found in the hotel’s library and elegant in-room writing desks.

Morrison House is a block from famous King Street and only a few blocks away from Alexandria’s waterfront. The Study, the hotel’s signature restaurant, serves fresh seafood and other locally sourced refined but approachable American cuisine.

Not real helpful at check-in. Getting our bags to the floor was cumbersome. We had to ask many questions about the facility that normally get as routine check in from other hotels.

Disappointed

Booking was difficult. I was in Paris trying to get a room for the evening of my return. I was told that my credit cards (3) did not work although they had been fine for multiple transactions in France. I was put on long holds and then the agent tried to book me in other properties. $4 bottles of water when the price was not clearly shown was over the top. The so called "breakfast" was inadequate and way over priced.

We enjoyed the location, right in the thick of things, yet, off the main drag. It was a lovely hotel, nice furnishings and comfortable. Staff was very nice and friendly.

Update your website & hotels.com posting!

Excellent: Location, location, location! Morrison House is perfectly located just off King Street near small boutiques and restaurants. It is a comfortable walk from the Alexandria Amtrak Station and the waterfront. Excellent: The Staff! On our 3 night stay we had contact with numerous desk attendants and 1 housekeeper. Everyone was helpful and courteous! Excellent: Room size was large for a small hotel and extremely clean upon arrival. Good: The beautiful exterior of the building. The common room with gas fireplace. The unadvertised wine hour daily from5-6pm. The beautifully appointed rooms! Bad: I missed the small print that the rooms would not be serviced during multi-night stays. Eating breakfast in our room was lovely but the trash and crumbs that built up over 3 days is inviting rodents and insects. Ugly: Today I went to the website and copied this: “Our restaurant features a seasonal menu of small plates expertly paired with masterfully created cocktails, as well as live entertainment. With three elegant event spaces, we can host professional and social gatherings that are sure to impress.” I also went to hotels.com and viewed the very pictures that convinced me to pay a higher price to stay at the Morrison House. I was looking at another hotel on the waterfront and noticed that their restaurant was closed. I called and asked about it and received a run around, so booked the Morrison House. Guess what! No restaurant, no bar! Because it was before
