Morrison House Old Town Alexandria, Autograph Collection

It’s a unique experience with a lovely lobby with chessboards, comfortable seating, an adjacent library, books for reading—conveniently located to King Street, the Main Street of Old Town Alexandria…and it’s affordable.

Cute place with lots of character and wonderful staff.

Great location. Quiet neighborhood. Really nice front desk staff. Room was lovely.

Well gpod

Cleanliness good. Good location for walking to shops/restaurants

Very nice hotel, in a fun location, with a great staff.

Clean room | Staff was accommodating

We were a bit disappointed. We were stuck in a basement room. The hotel was not what we remembered. We went there to relive our 1st Valentine’s say, which was 28 years ago. It was a bit shabby. The Marriott chain purchased it, so we expected it to be even more special, than it was 28 years ago. There was no mention, when we checked in that the front door of the hotel, would be locked at night. We rang the bell, but received no answer. We finally realized we had to use our key card to get in. Another couple came in behind us with the same issue. The hotel clerk was in the office, while we were waiting for the front door to be answered. We were offered a free breakfast, for the next day. It was not good. The pancakes were crunchy. They were completely dried out. The eggs were congealed, and there was not much else to choose from. I sincerely doubt we will ever go back. We paid around $300.00 for 1 night. 😞

The staff are wonderful, and the rooms on the lobby level are delightful and cozy.

Clean room, great location, quiet hotel.

HVAC WAS VERY LOUD

Located close to restaurants and shops Did not see the sign - too small

Staff was great, allowed late checkout,

Great location. Great lobby - Sitting area and Dining area. The Concierge was kind enough to place the leftovers of the dinner I ate at a restaurant in their refrigerator overnight. I was supposed to get a wake up call and it was never delivered but it is okay as I had awakened in time.

Nice peeps at the check-in, and a pretty hotel in the heart of old town! What's not to love?!

Staff was very attentive and friendly. Had everything I needed.

We stayed overnight to enjoy old town Alexandria, this hotels location was great fir that. Thee staff was friendly and efficient.

Dirty bathroom. Lots of hair on counters and shower from previous guest. AC was locked at 75 degrees and was MUCH hotter. Sweat all through the night. Terrible sleep.

It’s old nature not like most hotels. Its location. No parking and narrow road access

A great dig friendly property with professional staff. Would definitely return.

Being an Autograph Hotel,I was a bit disappointed. The location is unbeatable but there is no place to park on your own. Valet is $45 a night, too pricey for me! There is a nice fountain in front of the hotel that is in a desperate need of paint and the front door looks a little rough. Otherwise, very clean,nice staff, nice breakfast $25, and a small bar. I would stay here again for the location.

I routinely stay in the Marriott Autograph Collection hotel chain. They usually are very special. Unfortunately I can’t say that for the Morrison House in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia which is an Autograph Collection Hotel. The outside of the building is very charming. However once you put your foot in the door all that charm vanishes. The interior is very dingy, and down right dirty. There appeared to be dried splattered stains all over the elevator doors and walls. I was a little hesitant in even getting in it. When we entered our room there was a dirty used glass with dried coffee in it. It obviously had been there for quite a while. There were dirty used towels on the bathroom counter top. I immediately went to the front desk and told them what I found. The receptionist checked his computer and said the hotel supervisor had personally signed off that the room was clean and ready. We were given another room that was clean but unfortunately the shower soap dispenser was empty. I didn’t find it out until I was taking a shower. I just used the shampoo for shower gel. The room did not appear the way the photos show it to be. The room was very gloomy and dark. It is also partially underground. When you look out the window your head is literally at the same level as the street. Needless to say we were very disappointed in our room. The staff was very friendly and the location is very good but in no way is this a four star hotel. Because of the poor filthy

This is me and my wife's favorite place to stay when we want a staycation. The mixologist on staff is amazing (if you are into mixed drinks), and the hotel is so close to many of our favorite restaurants in the area. So walkable, yet off the beaten path. As a lover of books, getting to take books home is a bonus. We stay here at least 2 times a year.

A nice hotel in a nice area. Friendly staff but it took over 30 minutes to check-in because of issues with the last minute reservation I made through Expedia. The night staff required making a copy of my drivers license and credit before I received a room key.

Tried to check our bags while our room was being prepared and they were leaving them right in the open. Two smoke alarms in the room and the lights blink and flash all different colors all night. AC stopped working. Guy at desk was rude and unhelpful

Lovely property

Hotel was in a good location. Room was small with only one chair. Could not adjust the air conditioner and fan was noisy. Overall, a quaint hotel and nice place to stay.

Great quick trip to Old Town in this wonderful boutique hotel. The hotel is very inviting with lots of great spots to relax in. The bar was cozy with a fantastic bartender and fun cocktails. They had a live piano player on Saturday night. The rooms are small, but modern and comfortable. It’s a very easy walk down King Street to the waterfront. Just be aware there is no parking on site. You can street park or valet for $45/night. Highly recommend!

Steps from King Street restaurants, great for strolling around historic Old Town

Great location and great atmosphere. N/A

Very quaint and charming old Hotel, beautifully maintained. Pleasant, friendly staff. Smack in the center of Old Town, 1/2 mile easy walk from The best fireworks yet, this time shot off at midnight from the Potomic- Firtst time in all the years we've been coming. Pleasant, friendly, feels safe.

This is an adorable hotel, with adorable staff, and free books. We loved our stay.

It was absolutely beautiful and the staff were very welcoming. The room was very peaceful to me too.

Wonderful people and a wonderful property! I highly recommend the Morrison house for what it offers and it’s proximity to all of the shops and restaurants of Old Town!

Also they charge 2 $20.88 per day extra for parking and I now have another $140 fee on my card that I have no idea why

Fantastic people and service

The bar and restaurant were both closed. It was 96 degrees and we had to walk up to the 5 th floor. The staff is fantastic.

Morrison House was a great place to stay. The amenities are good. The location is perfect and the staff very helpful.

Beautiful hotel, spotlessly clean, staff were very helpful, friendly and welcoming. Great location and central to all attractions. N/A

Superb

Nice corner room but overall cleanliness has diminished somewhat from prior stays. Staff is friendly and welcoming. Hotel can use a facelift.

Dated. old. carpet from a long time ago. Ridiculous rates for this property.

Disappointed in the bare room and did not understand the automatic $25.00 charge for breakfast/ I did not think this room was worth the $$ The double charge for parking ws excessive for a one night stay

My wife and I loved this hotel and enjoyed the restaurant inside if it too.

Beautiful with lovely, helpful staff. Classy hotel beautiful bar that stayed open for us when we arrived at 10pm

Location and historical feel. Very clean and comfortable. Staff polite and helpful. Limited services for room. No coffee or even an ice bucket. Parking was included but had to go down to a creepy garage to get my car. Hotel bar/dining closed Sunday-Wednesday so do not plan on that. There is a sister hotel however, that honors voucher. Hallways were very cold!

The location is excellent. Comfortable rooms. Excellent staff and Bar area. There was not a safe in the room and I noticed no fan or air switch in the bathroom to clear the fog when showering.

Fabulous boutique hotel. Very clean and pretty with friendly staff. Great experience!

The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful. They seemed to genuinely care about our comfort. My husband is handicapped and they were extra attentive to his needs. I’m not fond of the redecoration of the interior but it’s still a lovely place.

The appearance of the exterior and the location in Alexandra. The second floor entrance and limited food service.

The walls are very thin and we could here are neighbors all night.

Derrick, an amazing piano player and singer, serenaded us in the bar. He is there Thursday and Friday evenings and well worth a visit. The bartender was great also. Exceptionally kind service.

Super amazing!

Location was excellent. Staff was helpful, but didn’t know a whole lot about the area. We would’ve liked to of had coffee service every morning, and also filtered water for no charge. Telephone was not functioning and there could be more outlets for charging laptops, etc. N Lack of on site, dining/breakfast, coffee, water on the daily.

The place was charming, clean, and comfortable.

no

...

The fire alarm went on twice ,so we left 3:00 in the morning to go home.all our plan changed. it ruined our vacation.

Superb

Nice location. Great staff.

We expected to see a little more in the lobby area that told us about the history of the house ...but nothing that we saw connected us to the house's past.

Very helpful staff. Our room was lower level but roomy and clean. Great area to walk to places to eat

a wonderful, 2-day stay. The hotel restaurant is lovely, service exemplary, creative menu with a South American flair. Small bar has live entertainment, there's a casual lounge off the lobby. Location is ideal: walk to museums, shops, cafes, or hop the free, King St. trolley or circulator bus.

location, beautiful steps leading up to property, no microwave

Cute property in the heart of Old Town

Pleasant

Quant and lovely place. Definitely stay there again.

Clean hotel, with friendly staff. Very little in ways of amenities

Nope

The customer service was outstanding and we loved the hotel. Everything was very clean.

Staff very helpful. Beds super Comfortable. Spacious room.

Not real helpful at check-in. Getting our bags to the floor was cumbersome. We had to ask many questions about the facility that normally get as routine check in from other hotels.

Quiet location. Around the corner from King Street where all of the restaurants/stores located including free King St. Trolley

$4 bottles of water when the price was not clearly shown was over the top. The so called "breakfast" was inadequate and way over priced.

Front desk staff is your first contact with hotel and they need to inform guests of Wi-Fi , food & beverage offerings and local options for meals and dining in the in town location

It was perfectly located for my needs. Smaller facility some staff was able to pay attention to details and give excellent service.

We enjoyed the location, right in the thick of things, yet, off the main drag. It was a lovely hotel, nice furnishings and comfortable. Staff was very nice and friendly.

We had an awesome check in with very friendly Kubilay. And we enjoyed the wine hour with the wonderful Monique. We love your hotel and the staff really shine! Thanks for a great night!

Excellent: The Staff! On our 3 night stay we had contact with numerous desk attendants and 1 housekeeper. Everyone was helpful and courteous! Excellent: Room size was large for a small hotel and extremely clean upon arrival. Good: The beautiful exterior of the building. The common room with gas fireplace. The unadvertised wine hour daily from5-6pm. The beautifully appointed rooms! Bad: I missed the small print that the rooms would not be serviced during multi-night stays. Eating breakfast in our room was lovely but the trash and crumbs that built up over 3 days is inviting rodents and insects. Ugly: Today I went to the website and copied this: “Our restaurant features a seasonal menu of small plates expertly paired with masterfully created cocktails, as well as live entertainment. With three elegant event spaces, we can host professional and social gatherings that are sure to impress.” I also went to hotels.com and viewed the very pictures that convinced me to pay a higher price to stay at the Morrison House. I was looking at another hotel on the waterfront and noticed that their restaurant was closed. I called and asked about it and received a run around, so booked the Morrison House. Guess what! No restaurant, no bar! Because it was before

This is our all time favorite place to stay. It’s small, warm and comfortable. The staff is great. We have gotten to know them over the years and they are like family. Can’t say enough good things about it.

The staff were overly accommodating. The living room with fire place was so cozy. Beautiful bar and steps from everything on king street. Valet parking and to go breakfast. Coffee service and complimentary wine hour at 5 pm. Cozy comfy beds, clean and enjoyable. We'll be back.

The location is excellent and the property is charming. Room is clean and comfortable. We chose the ground floor because it has no carpet, but its actually 1/2 underground and window is small, not a lot of light. The housekeeping was noisy. Breakfast is grab-n-go and no vegan options. Late at night there was no staff to open door and card key didn’t work.

Great location. Quiet property

Our stay at The Morrison was incredible and the staff was 100% the reason. Mikayla and Monique were absolutely fantastic and made us feel like family. Our house had flooded so we had to stay here for a week and these ladies made the situation so much better. Sam was also great and super attentive and helpful. We will 100% be returning.

The property manager, Sam, was extremely helpful, friendly, and always checking on the needs of the guests throughout their stay.

Sam was wonderful. Made sure that we had everything we needed for our stay. Decor and location was top notch.

The Morrison House was extraordinary. The manager Sam Shaheen was so kind to help me with the parking. I ended up in the incorrect garage, he took care of the parking fee and got me to the right garage. The staff was very accommodating, carried my bags to my room. I enjoyed the Friday at 5pm wine tasting!!!! You received two complimentary glass, and they were not little wine glass. The other great thing is you can walk everywhere from this location!!! I so ENJOYED my weekend stay and will be back!!!!!! absolutely loved it!!!!

I loved the beautiful hotel because of its attention to detail.

Staff was friendly and very accommodating. They gave us suggestions on places to eat and visit and even extended our checkout time, in order for us to have more time to explore the town.

The location in Old Town was great. We walked everywhere. The hotel staff was wonderful, very polite and informative. Gave great directions and suggestions as to where to go and where to eat.

I loved everything about my stay at Morrison house! Great location! Excellent, friendly staff that went above and beyond to make us feel welcome! Both Sam’s were awesome and the young lady that was working the front desk in the evening was very nice and helpful as well! Hotel was clean and rooms very spacious! Will definitely stay here again when visiting Alexandria! Great experience!!!

I love the location. It was close to many places to eat and I enjoyed taking several walks alone to enjoy all the beautiful historic buildings. I would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed this location in Old Town Alexandria. Perfect walking distance to all restaurants and a nice walk down to the warf.

The staff was wonderful! They were very welcoming and helpful. Little disappointed that lounge was not open but understand. The small happy hour (wine) was very nice accommodation for that, when we are back in area we will surely stay there again.

It's not the beautiful place it once was. Lost its class, its ambiance. Staff is good. Beds are comfortable. Furnishings, carpets, design look cheap. Not worth it's cost compaired to other nearby hotels.

Lot of things they didn’t tell you or have posted, ex. They don’t have room service for cleaning and replacing towels; you have to request it the night before, but they don’t tell you that. They also have a bar but it closes on a whim, they prefer you bring your own wine, etc. it seemed. Otherwise, ok.

We arrived very late at night and were warmly greeted by a long time employee. Check in was smooth, room was clean and nice. Location is great. Would recommend.

The staff was very accommodating and I would highly recommend this hotel.

Front desk help was wonderful! The lobby has a cozy relaxing front room with a fireplace. They offer a free glass of wine at 5 to unwind. The location cannot be beat as everything is within a few blocks stroll. Highly recommend 👌

Close to DC and attractions but feels like you are staying in some ones home.

The stairway entrance is difficult with luggage, but the staff were there to help with carrying, loading and unloading

Gorgeous place! Fireplace always going :)

Great location and the staff was very helpful. Nice historic building with updated rooms.

Very nice property overall. We would definitely stay again. Parking not ideal but expected for the close proximity to everything. Only minor issue was we requested a couple additional wash clothes. The front desk couldnt get them to us until 9am the next day when the cleaning staff came in? Staff was very attentive. Bars are still closed in VA. So we decided to just sit in the lounge with our own bottle of wine. Staff brought us a ice bucket for the wine and two wine glasses. Helped make it a nice evening for us.

Our most favorite hotel. The staff is amazing. They are the best I could imagine. They make you feel so welcome. They remembered us from our last visit. The rooms are comfortable and attractive. During pandemic you have to ask for housekeeping but other than that everything was perfect.

Internet fee not welcome, other charges too. TV remote control awkward, too much selling focus.

Lovely lobby w fireplace. Generous hostess during wine reception.

Overall stay was nice. I lived very close by for 15 years, so very familiar with this property. Only issue is the parking charge at $38 is simply not reasonable, even by garage standards. I tried one time street parking, but because I have an overseas phone, the ParkMobile App would not download so could not use, forced to Valet. Lower it to something reasonable, say $25.

Conveniently located and walkable to everything downtown. You can park your car out front and valet will take care of the rest. Rooms are small but have a bed and breakfast feel to them. Staff are polite and helpful.

The room was very clean and better than expected! The staff was incredibly polite. They had a complementary happy hour our first night, and we had a wonderful conversation with the receptionist! The location was very close to King Street and near to many restaurants and shops.

Nice stay. Convenient location. Pretty rooms. Saturday night into Sunday, parking is free on the street-- otherwise overpriced with the hotel itself. Comfy bed.

We had an amazing stay! The staff went above and beyond in helping me to arrange a special surprise for my fiancé. It was perfect and so appreciated! The area is fantastic!

Morrison House was wonderful! The location was perfect and we loved the charm of this hotel. It felt like home and Monique was such a fantastic host! The room was clean, decorated beautifully and the bed was very comfortable. Love the wine in the evenings and the hospitality from all staff was remarkable. I would stay her again and again!

Gorgeous property - good location - awesome staff

Loved everything about this hotel. Friendly staff clean. Great location

Our stay was great. The service at the front desk was very helpful and attentive. This might sound crazy, but we believe that our room (407) may have been haunted as both bedside lamps would sporadically flicker on and off throughout the night. We didn’t have any issues with it as we believe it was a friendly spirit just acknowledging its presence.

Staff was great!!! Room could be cleaner pleasant experience overall

Property was well cared for and extremely clean. I would return on my next visit to VA. Thank you for making my visit so memorable.

The hotel and room were very clean. The staff was very kind and helpful. The breakfast and service in the dining area were excellent. Its was great, we will definitely be returning.

A beautiful hotel in a great neighborhood. Will plan another trip soon!

The location is awesome! We were steps away from King Street and all of the tourist attractions, including dozens of restaurants.

It is convenient, cozy, great walking area and has a great feel to it.

The lobby was beautiful and hotel nicely decorated. But HEADS UP about parking. It is an additional $38 (per day I believe) which I missed when booking. The rooms were quite nice but maybe could use a little warming up. It was kind of a stark colonial meets contemporary design and not like the main floor. The bathroom was very nice though.

I tried to book a second night and it didn't seem to go through on Expedia. We checked out the next day and staff did not say anything or question why we were checking out early. Later that evening I received an email asking me again how the check-in went. After looking at my account, I realized I had been charged $340 for another night and had already gone home. I gave feedback to expedia. They had the hotel respond to me directly. I emailed Morrison hotel manager about the situation 12 days ago and did not receive a response. Very unfortunate.

Shower pressure was terrible. Seemed to have limited staff. Anthony was great though!

A fantastic location in the middle of Old Town! Beautiful hotel, friendly staff, and COMFY beds & robes!

They didn’t have my reservation and service was not great. Had to leave and come back. Slow check in process. Whole thing was meh

Also the $3.50 charge for a small bottle of water!!!!!

Beautiful boutique hotel in great location. Everything we expected

Great location. Staff was awesome. Quiet. Felt like a home.

The property was fine and management and staff were welcoming and accommodating.

This is a great hotel. Small cozy and in a great location.

We showed up 2 hours before the check-in time of 4pm and our room was ready, which was great. But then everything went downhill. Our room was freezing cold and showed a Temp of 60 degrees on the thermostat. We weren't going to spend much time in our room and decided to turn the temperature to a reasonable temp of 70 degrees in hopes to balance out the room to a comfortable temp upon our return. After a night of dinner/drinks, we returned around 1230am to a now sauna of a room. The thermostat temperature reached 105 degrees! Heaven forbid we would have fallen asleep in those conditions. That seems a little dangerous to me. Also, my wife purchased some expensive chocolates for her mother and they were now melted. We tried to fix the thermostat with no luck. They ended up having to move us across the hall to another room, which we were very thankful for, but it was still an inconvenience to have been in this situation to begin with at now 1am! What would they have done if no other rooms were available? The main reason why I am writing this is because of the way the morning front desk attendant handled the situation. The night staff was very accommodating and we informed her of the situation that had happened. I showed her the chocolates and all we got w

The staff is very friendly. They are accommodating and professional.

Fixtures need updated examples, shower head and faucet, paint bathroom , carpet is coming up . Our bed was hard and the pillows over stuffed
