We stayed at the Alexandrian for a Board Meeting and they were absolutely accommodating. The meeting spaces were very well equipped for all of our needs. The rooms were very delightful, comfortable beds with charming decor. After a long day of meetings, it was refreshing to return to a room that was not your average stuffy hotel space. The staff were also very accommodating and always eager to assist!

First room had a very loud gurgling AC unit, understandable for a old hotel yet still annoying. I asked to switch rooms and was moved to a larger king suite. Toilet continued to run and refill every few minutes, annoying but not a deal breaker. What was a deal breaker was an absolutely disgusting shower. Completely unacceptable and a reflection of both poor housekeeping and poor management for letting something like this to persist as it doesn't happen overnight. This is something I would expect at a youth hostel on a backpacking trip in Europe, not a Autograph Collection hotel. Room 537. Ambassador Elite/Lifetime Titanium Elite Member.

So I didn’t choose this hotel, I was supposed to stay at the Morrison around the block, but was emailed on my flight to DC that I was being transferred due to “unforeseen circumstances,” but that’s not why I choose two stars. I was “upgraded” to a king suite with a courtyard view and terrace. Upon entry the room smelled of mothballs and onions. I’d love to know why, but I digress. All I wanted after traveling was a shower, lucky for me all the hotel had was cold water. Then….the noise. At first, I figured it was the room above me rolling luggage. But after 30 minutes, it didn’t stop. Apparently, my room bumps up right to the elevator corridor, so I was able to hear each and every time the cables moved, jangled, or did what they do. This noise occurred every 30 seconds until about midnight. I wish I could post my video, but take my word for it….absolutely ridiculous they expect guests to stay in these rooms. I called the front desk and was only offered a pair of cheap earbuds. Funny they knew exactly the noise I was talking about. No dinner comp, internet comp, etc. Between no hot water and the noise, it was a miserable week. And definitely not worth the price I paid.

The Alexandrian Autograph collection is a very nice hotel with a great location. The hotel is only about a 15 minute walk from the water and close to shops. The hotel, in itself, is not the most exceptional but it is unique. What really stood out to me from other hotels is the exceptional staffing. The front desk team really took care of me. Betty and Bezah were very pleasant and welcoming. Tyler and Oscar in the evening kept the pleasantries by always providing a warm greeting of "welcome back," while answering any of my questions or requests. As stated earlier, the hotel staff is really what makes this place stand out and I'm happy to book with them again!

The hotel was very nice the rooms were very classy and old fashioned. The service was amazing they gave us free champagne 🍾 for my wife's birthday! Zeniah one of the receptionists organized that for us! She is a very sweet lady indeed ❤️ Finally, the only complaint is that the hotel does have some pretty noisy rooms. They should have double windows like Four Seasons Ritz Carlton or St Regis.
