Archer Hotel Old Town Alexandria

My husband and I visited Old Town, Alexandria, for the first time in four years. Before our courtship and marriage, I had lived in Old Town from 2012 to 2014. This year, our goal was to connect with friends and hit up some of the new galleries and museums. The Archer Hotel was the perfect home base, steps away from the King St Metro. The Archer was ideal because of its convenient location and amenities. We enjoyed the walkability, the restaurant and bar, and the outdoor firepit. Sophia at the front desk made our time a pleasure, filling us with treats and taking cheerful action whenever we made a request. The Archer was a peaceful, clean haven to recharge after busy days in DC. Each morning, we were ready to strike out again with alacrity to see our friends and experience DC. The Archer Hotel helped step into America's Semiquincentennial Celebrations and the wonders of DC.

Good variety of items on the breakfast menu.

Such a great location, very close to the Meteo and great food options.

The large comfortable bed. The location. Very cozy.

Spent an unexpected night here when my flight was cancelled at Regan.

We weren't here for very long, so my experience was limited, but what we did experience was solid enough.

Comfortable rooms and beds. Hotel was busy with a wedding, so lobby was lively but we still had a quiet night's sleep.

They weren't able to get us connecting rooms, but it was late notice, so hard to blame them for that.

TV interfaces at hotels are always oddly bad, but this one was especially lousy. Strange detail I realize.

Valet was nice but a bit clueless, with a bit of a communication gap.

Well located close to the restaurants, store etc… Well decorated, quiet, the staff was caring, nice.

Loved the hotel & the location

Excellent hotel, perfect location very close to the metro station. Room was immaculate and the WiFi was very good. The standard of the food at the adjoining restaurant was very high. All the staff were very helpful, friendly and professional. Highly recommended!

My fiancé had a training in Old Town Alexandria, and we opted to stay at The Archer for a cozy, intimate getaway. The staff here is amazing, super accommodating, discreet, and kind. They always try to accommodate their guests and fulfill requests whenever possible.

The hotel staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. They greeted me almost every time I left and returned, which was often while exploring the area. They answered any questions we had about the town and surrounding attractions and were especially helpful in finding parking in the middle of the city, even off-site!

The rooms were clean, well appointed, and featured adjustable heating and cooling. We also had a nice little view of the city. The bed is incredibly soft and cool at first, though it warms up quickly once you settle in. The pillows are very plush with goose feathers, so if you prefer a firmer pillow, you may want to request an extra one. The room-darkening curtains are excellent for keeping the room cool and blocking out the sun.

The service and food at HomeGrown are fantastic, and everything we tried was delicious. AKB is also a great option for dinner, drinks, or a quick bite on the go.

The room amenities are top-tier as well. The slippers are comfortable, the robes are soft, clean, and cozy, and the shower gets wonderfully hot perfect for relaxing and refreshing after a long day.

The room rates were right up our alley, and in my opinion, you get a luxurious stay for a steal, especially with a lion-claw tub!

We never had the opportunity to stay here. We booked for a wedding thru the wedding website link but never received the confirmation. The next morning I called to confirm. I was told there was no reservation and there were no rooms available under the block. My adult son also booked online and also did not receive a confirmation. However, they did have his reservation. They did want me to book under their regular rate instead of just adding me to the block. NOPE. Seems they should have/could have done better.

New, clean and peaceful. Love everything.

I like the location to places we visited. I also like the customer service. Everyone was very helpful. The cleaning staff was good as well.

Everything was wonderful!
