Check in was quick and seamless. Asked where closest metro was and was told, I just follow that bridge. Ok we'll then.. Room was nice but used to bed being separated in a residence inn, this one was in room with kitchen and living room. Frigerator made noises all night. Bed was comfortable. Hotel has nice buffet breakfast which was... More

My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend when we were in town for the Race for Hope DC. We booked this room through a discount site and got it for far less than the average rate, so we weren't expecting a lot. We were quite surprised to find this little gem when we arrived! We were upgraded... More

The Residence Inn Alexandria Old Town South at Carlyle is a very clean, comfortable establishment. The staff was extraordinarily friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast and social hour saved us significant $ and was surprisingly good! My only complaint would be that the wine should be two glasses per guest/not per room ;). The room was well-appointed, clean, in excellent... More

Spacious, clean and everything you would expect from a well managed Residence Inn. Free breakfast, and a short walk to Starbucks or Whole Foods if you need it. The kitchenette is handy. It's a bit of a hike from Old Town, but a quick drive puts you right in the heart of Alexandria. Unfortunately, the hotel did not have any... More

This was a very nice Residence Inn, the lobby area was very nice, breakfast room nice as well. I appreciated the fact you could buy a beer or wine at the marketplace. The rooms were nice and clean though the floors in the kitchen were sticky with my shoes-I think more from whatever the housekeeping staff uses on them. The... More

We had just finished up a week at the beach staying in a condo and had booked a room here on the way home. The stay did not start well. Didnt know where to park or unload at. Very confusing. And then, we found out it is $18 a day to park in the hotel garage. However, when we got... More

My family always stays in Residence Inns and we never really have problems. The rooms are spacious and the breakfast comes in very handy when we eat downstairs. The strange thing is, how can you be in a place with so much to see and do and the hotel, not only doesn't have a directory, but employees seem a bit... More

Room was clean upon arrival however after a long trip of traveling and even calling from car to make sure we were checked in we were told that the parking garage is full and only has limited space. Apparently whoever "checks in" first get privy to their garage which is outrageous. If a car leaves it should be opened up... More

This place is newly renovated, modern, clean and up to date. My family (including 3 kids) spent a long weekend visiting DC and this was the perfect place to stay. It was away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but close enough that you could be in the city in less than 30 minutes (by Metro or car,... More

Poor planning on my part - try to find a hotel around Washington D. C. during spring break and at the peak of the cherry blossom festival. All of my usual Hilton properties were full and we wanted to be somewhere in Old Town Alexandria. This Residence Inn was highly rated on TripAdvisor, and now I see why. Easy to... More
