Check Availability & Pricing
Hotel Information: Located in one of Washington’s most historical and attractive suburbs, this updated hotel was built in 1987. The spacious, restful lobby overlooks an enclosed brick patio with tables, chairs, greenery, and water features. During the week, most clients have business with the federal government and corporations nearby. On weekends vacationers arrive, in town to see the sights or attend weddings.
Amenity highlights: The hotel’s fitness center is equipped with two treadmills, stair machines, a stationary bike, weight machines, free weights, and a TV. A few steps beyond are the indoor lap pool and spa tub. Dog owners can request Sheraton’s complimentary Love That Dog (LTD) program, which supplies canine guests with special beds and a map of dog-friendly spots in Old Town.
Insider tip: Old Town Alexandria’s quaint shops are some of the area’s best. King Street is the main thoroughfare, but guests also enjoy exploring side streets. The British Collection Company on South Royal Street sells and serves tea in a tidy little room. Two blocks west on St Asaph Street, Fetch carries dog treats shaped like postal workers and cats. And on King Street, Gallerie La Taj is a mini-museum of African art.

Dining
Fin & Hoof - As the name implies, the Fin & Hoof Restaurant is the place for beef and seafood, perhaps followed by a glass of port and fine cigar in the adjacent bar. It also serves lunch. At breakfast, the mood in the softly lit dining room changes as chefs unveil a large buffet with omelet and waffle stations.
