The hotel’s location was excellent. We parked when we arrived and only needed the car once in four days. The staff were wonderful, and I’d absolutely recommend staying here again. My only suggestion would be to update the mattress in our room, especially since it’s one of the upgraded categories because we could feel some springs while sleeping. Aside from that, everything else was perfect.
The only time we ever needed our car was went we left to visit the brewery.
Breakfast at Cafe de Soleil where we had a 10% hotel discount

I really have no complaints with this hotel as long as you know in advance two things: 1. They charge a $25 a day amenity fee, which can be offset by taking snacks from their snack bar, which is weird. 2. Parking at this place isn't worth the headache. Either take a Lyft or walk from the Metro. With all that being said, my stay was great. I stayed in room #307. Great floor to ceiling windows with a view of the waterfront. Plenty of restaurants/bars just a block away. Check in and check out was a breeze. I didn't try the hotel restaurant, but the wife and I did enjoy sitting out on the hotel patio in the late afternoon. I would definitely stay here again.

A wonderful stay at Hotel Indigo

We had a lovely stay at the Hotel Indigo over Labor Day week end. Everything about the hotel was great, from its location very near the waterfront to its very comfortable bed. Recommend highly to visitors to Old Town Alexandria Va

Love this hotel & location. Room was spacious & well appointed. Filtered water dispenser was a fantastic feature. Staff was accommodating. Didn't quite understand the $25 daily fee which provides a $15 purchase at the in house market as we typically would not be purchasing these items. Would've preferred a reduced fee.
