My teenage daughter and I stayed at the Hampton Inn in Alexandria for two nights to do some sightseeing in Washington, DC. We chose this location because it has two nights available at one of the most reasonable prices for a Hampton Inn in the DC area. Probably because it is a little far out from the city's center. The... more

Stayed here for two days after a bad storm wiped out power and knocked down trees at our home in Northern Virginia. Only 3 rooms were available at the time I booked and I took the last of the king bed new construction suites. Room was great. Nicely appointed, clean, upscale with polished engineered countertops, brushed stainless bath fixtures, refrigerator,... more

The hotel has been recently renovated and added more rooms and a new breakfast area. The breakfast room was beyond great. Very relaxing and the food was plentiful. The hotel is in a great location and the shuttle service made getting around very easy. They took us to the metro and Old Town where we were able to walk around... more

I was very disappointed with this hotel. They are currently under renovation, they are extending the building. The new section looks absolutely beautiful. However, they are letting the current section that is open go down the drain. The first room I was given was dirty and smelled and there was a baby cockroach in the bathroom. We then moved to... more

We just returned from a 4 night stay in Alexandria. We were in town for a funeral at Arlington. We had a block of rooms and each person called in separately to confirm their reservation. In each of these phone calls (there were approximately 10 rooms) NOT ONCE were any of us informed that the hotel is being renovated. We... more

First, the good news....the new bed and pillows and bedding were wonderful! Also, staff on the whole helpful and upbeat. When we reported a broken toliet, it was repaired quickly. Now the bad news....it lists it's location as "old town", well, after a 10 minute van ride, it is. Not anyway you could walk there. We also reserved a "Potomac... more

We arrived late on 6/12 and we were checked in with no problems. The only problem we had was all the construction going on in this area. It appeared to be rush hour and it took us almost 45 minutes to reach the detour for the hotel. Hotel is what I would call average with this type of hotel. Whenever... more

Pros: Managers are hands on and very customer service oriented. Rooms are clean and housekeeping above average. On check in , you get a free bottle of water and a package of Oreos. Everyone appears to be trying hard to do a good job. Cons: Paper thin walls. Windows don't open up for fresh air. Breakffast has a lot of... more

Having just recently, April 9th to 20th 2007, visited my cousin in Alexandria I thought I should write a review on the hotel. The Hampton Inn , 5821 Richmond Highway, is beyond doubt the finest hotel my good lady and I have ever stayed in. Being just average working class Scotsman/woman we are not what could be called globe trotters... more
