3-Star Hotels in Alexandria

This was our stop over on our way from Orlando to Dallas, so we were really looking forward to a good night's sleep. It was in a good location with nearby restaurants and grocery store. We felt safe keeping our locked moving truck on the property. Room was large and comfortable with a good hot shower with good pressure. We spoke with Gregory before and after booking. He was so friendly, informative and helpful. On arrival Tim was great for check in. Small vending area available. A good experience.

We spent four nights at the Holiday Inn downtown Alexandria. The description on Priceline said it was a brand new hotel and it definitely wasn’t new but it had been updated and was clean. When we got to our room we noticed it was missing the desk and chair that is shown in the photos and also listed as an amenity. There was a mirror on the wall like it was centered to hang over something, like a desk, but no where to be found. We asked the staff downstairs about it and they didn’t know it was missing but she said she would try to get us one. A few minutes later a nice man knocked on the door and he has a swivel chair. We were grateful for that and asked if a desk was coming too. He says, “you don’t have a desk?” And is looking past me to see and he was obviously surprised and had no clue what was going on. He didn’t think he had anymore and apologized. The next morning housekeeping came around and my husband just asked her if she knew anything about our missing desk and she said she would make a few calls and in less than five minutes someone was there at the door with a desk! Promote this young lady, she makes things happen! We ordered from the restaurant once and the hamburgers were very very good. Breakfast buffet was good and about $10.99 I think. This isn’t a Holiday Inn Express, there is no free breakfast.

My organization and I come to Alexandria a few times each year, and we've been faithful customers of the Home2 Suites the past few years. We typically booked 1-3 room(s) per stay, and most of our experience was relatively enjoyable. However, earlier this month, there was a MAJOR concern, and management failed to handle the situation properly. A person from my company is taking cancer medication cream, and their product treatment mysteriously vanished from their room while they were gone. This only occurred after an unrequested visit from housekeeping. The vanishing cream (this cream was in an expensive bottle and could appear to be a cosmetics cream; the treatment was purchased for $250+) was never found after repeated searches. My team and I thoroughly searched the hotel room several times, looking through the garbage, searching above shelves, checking underneath furniture - trying to do anything we could to ensure that the medication had not been accidentally misplaced. Additionally, we waited until we checked out of the hotel and we returned home to confirm that the medication was not packed away in our personal luggage... Alas, after everyone within the company unpacked their traveling bags, no cancer medication was found. I understand that 9 out of 10 times, missing items are typically attributed to guest error or misplacement. However, this was the 1 out of 10. The person in my company had to pay for another round of cancer medication treatment. There was no reimbursement whatsoever for our stay (we had booked multiple rooms for several nights), no responsibility on behalf of the management to conduct thorough investigation on the missing medical treatment, no protocol established to help restore trust in this business. Due to damaged trust and the failure of this hotel to adequately provide a solution or support in this situation, we will not do business with this establishment going forward. If you stay here, I recommend putting away any valuables, even when room service is unrequested... You might find something missing... but don't worry - at least you'll get those fresh towels you didn't request.

For the most part, the hotel was updated and comfortable. There were a couple of problems. This hotel was the host hotel for a Conference with probably 250-300 people. There were only 2 ice machines and one of them did not work. Upon arrival, we discovered that our phone in the room did not work. It was reported immediately and when we checked out 2 days later, it still did not work. To me this was a safety issue that should have been addressed immediately.

The stay was fine. We had to stay only for one night. But the toilet was unclean. The receptionist at the night was a little impatient. But the person on the morning shift was amazing and catered to any need anyone needed. The amenities were fine. The beddings and temperature were fine too. Breakfast was also good.

Kathryn was exceptional. She's easy to work with and VERY understanding. She made sure she went the extra mile to accommodate me and I definitely appreciate that. Superb customer service, and I would definitely recommend this place just on her hospitality.

I am staying at the Comfort Inn with my two daughters for one night on the way to pick up my son from camp in the morning. I’ve stayed in a lot of choice hotels and this one is pretty mediocre. First the check in person basically just handed me my key and sign in sheet with no explanation. I knew to initial and sign but others may not have. If there is WiFi she didn’t offer a code, she did not even tell me what floor the room was on or where the elevator is located. When we went to the room the pool was very crowded so we decided to go to dinner. When we returned around 8 it was still full so we waited another 1/2 hour. By about 8:30 the pool was pretty open but it was murky and dirty and there were still a lot of people hanging around. . My girls went in anyway and while we were at the pool it appeared that many of the people who were using the pool were not even guests at the hotel. There is a gate that leads directly to the parking lot and it was wide open. A bunch of people left through that gate directly from the pool area and got in cars and drove off. This was the most concerning thing about the stay. If the hotel is full with families and kids it’s understandable that the pool area gets overwhelmed. But if there are non guests using the pool this is a problem as well as a safety issue. Anyone can walk right into the pool and the hotel. The rooms were average and had a funny smell. The bathroom was smallish and had water stains on the ceiling. I paid a little less than I normally do for a Comfort Inn or Suites but it still isn’t worth the price.
