Sheraton Suites Old Town Alexandria

Sheraton Suites Old Town Alexandria Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Sheraton Suites Old Town Alexandria, you immediately get that classic hotel vibe — nothing too flashy, but solid and dependable. This three-star property sits right on North Saint Asaph Street, and honestly, the location is probably its biggest selling point. I mean, you’re literally in the heart of Old Town Alexandria, which means cobblestone streets, historic charm, and the Potomac River are all just steps away. The lobby feels comfortable without trying too hard, and the staff actually seems to know what they’re doing.

The Suite Life

Here’s what I really appreciated — every room is actually a suite, which you don’t always expect at this price point. You get a separate living area with a pull-out sofa, plus a bedroom that’s properly separated from where you’d hang out during the day. The beds are genuinely comfortable (guests consistently rave about this, and I can see why), and there’s enough space to spread out your stuff without feeling cramped. The kitchenette setup is pretty basic — mini-fridge, microwave, coffee maker — but it’s handy for storing leftovers or making morning coffee without having to get fully dressed.

Location Magic

You know what’s great about staying here? You can walk to King Street in about five minutes, which puts you right in the middle of all the action. The waterfront is maybe a ten-minute stroll, and if you’re into history (or traveling with someone who is), you’re surrounded by it. Mount Vernon is a quick drive away, and getting into DC is surprisingly easy — the King Street Metro station isn’t far, though honestly, sometimes it’s just as quick to drive depending on where you’re headed. Couples seem to particularly love this spot, and I get it — there’s something romantic about wandering those historic streets in the evening.

Practical Stuff

The parking situation is handled on-site, which is actually a relief in this area where street parking can be a nightmare. Breakfast is available and it’s American-style fare — nothing groundbreaking, but it gets the job done if you want to fuel up before exploring. The hotel feels well-maintained without being fancy, and the service strikes that sweet spot of being helpful without hovering. I noticed they seem to have figured out the little things that matter, like reliable WiFi and housekeeping that doesn’t wake you up at dawn.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t going to be the most Instagram-worthy hotel you’ve ever stayed in, but it delivers on what matters most — comfort, location, and value. The fact that recent guests rated the location so highly (we’re talking 9.0 out of 10) tells you everything you need to know about why people choose this place. You’re paying for that prime Old Town access, plus the peace of mind that comes with a reliable chain hotel. It’s the kind of place where you’ll sleep well, wake up refreshed, and step outside into one of the most charming neighborhoods in the DC area.

Washington’s apartments welcome families with stroller-friendly museums, splash parks, and metro links to the zoo.

• James from United States (9/10)

  very spacious and comfortable

• Yvonne from United Kingdom (8/10)

  I liked the automatic night light that came on under the bed when I got up at night to go to the toilet. I liked the radio beside the bed although it ran half an hour slow. The room was very clean and the fridge was cold.

• Peter from United States (9/10)

  Sofia was very helpful on the phone and upon arrival! Mariel and Muriel were exceptionally helpful at the front desk, they went out of their way to help us! Maide (I’m not sure i spelled her name correctly, but she’s from Madagascar) also was very kind and helpful.

• David from United States (9/10)

  The hotel has a great location. I don’t know why I was charged a resort fee as there are no resort facilities. I arrived late in the evening and left early in the morning. The staff was friendly.

• Teresa from Puerto Rico (8/10)

  Cleanliness, overall design of hotel, friendly breakfast staff, pleasant lobby and lounge areas, great drop off space. Great to have refreshments in lobby area. Great Cassina work/dine table. Plenty of reachable plugs for charging. Nice room design.

• Greg from United States (8/10)

  Excellent location. Overnight parking was expensive and one of the two elevators was not operating making for a long wait and crowded ride. The room was clean but found the pillows were not at all comfortable. And no microwave.
