Stayed here for 5 days in June - easy access to the Metro (right across the street) which will get you to any tourist areas. Hotel is located in a very safe area and within walking distance of many restaurants. Loved the cooked to order breakfast and the managers reception. Rooms and eating area could use updating. Staff was excellent!!
Would stay here again!

My family visited Washington DC during Cherry Blossom time. The hotel was right across from the Metro Station which made it so easy to get into town. In the city it was very crowded so we were happy to have public transportation right there for us. My 3 children ages 10, 9 and 4 loved the pool and the glass elevators. The staff was very helpful and our room was very clean. We all enjoyed the breakfast each morning and my husband & I enjoyed the happy hour. It was a nice way to unwind after a busy day of seeing the sites in DC. We will definately be back!
Good Overall

I went with an extremely large group, and let me tell you that the service was great. You could not have a more helpful and friendly staff. The rooms were ok to live in, except they could have been a little bit cleaner. The location of this hotel is wonderful, and so easy to get to Washington from. We will definitely be coming back.
Not what it used to be. . . .

I've stayed at Embassy Suites Hotels in NYC, Boca, Arlington, Dulles, and this one had been my favorite until my last stay. The Hotel is showing it's age and it needs some TLC. Also, what had been a much appreciated break after a work day or day spent touring-- the Manager's Special-- is now gone? Please replace old bedding and old fixtures and make the Old Towne ES a relaxing, fun place to visit again!
EMBASSY SUITES ALEXANDRIA ACROSS FROM THE KING ST METRO

Ugh! We have stayed in this hotel five times before and always loved it. However, on this last visit, it was very expensive, the food was overcooked and inedible, they got our order wrong as well and didn't apologize for doing so, the beds were sunken in the middle and falling out of the frame--VERY uncomfortable, and the bathroom was less than perfectly clean. All in all, they have soured us on this visit and we won't be coming back. You should find another in this chain closer to the sights of D.C. that would be just as expensive and probably better run. Yuck! And when you've been out all day in 100 degree heat, the least you can hope for is that they don't burn your daughter's dinner.
