I was there 8/4-8/6/25 and they did not have a happy hour at the bar. The hotel was nice, I thought it was a little dark in the lobby. The theatre room was nice option. Overall I enjoyed the property.

✨ A Hidden Gem We’ll Keep Coming Back To! ✨

Our stay at Hotel AKA Alexandria was everything we didn’t know we needed — stylish, peaceful, and right in the middle of everything we love: great food, walkable charm, and truly thoughtful guest service. From the moment we checked in, we felt welcomed and seen. The front desk team was attentive and kind, and room service? Quick, courteous, and attentive. The design of the hotel is modern and calming, but it still has personality. Our room was a dream — minimalist luxury with plush bedding, gorgeous lighting, and that rare mix of quiet and comfort that’s hard to find. One of the most unexpectedly beautiful touches was a silent reading event hosted during our stay. It felt so aligned with the calm, curated energy of the hotel — like they’re really about cultivating experience, not just accommodation. Loved seeing a space that values rest and presence. Plus, the location couldn’t be better. You’re steps away from local gems — cozy cafés, vibrant restaurants, and scenic streets made for morning strolls or golden hour photos. We never had to move our car — everything we needed was within walking distance, and that’s a win. We’re already talking about coming back — and would be honored to return (and share even more of the magic with our community). If you’re looking for a stay that feels curated, elevated, and in sync with the slower, softer pace of life… Hotel AKA is the best option. IG: kenyeeeezy

After a tough travel day of long delays and a cancelation, it was very comforting to spoil myself a bit. The room was a perfect spot for that - comfy and clean with luxurious touches that elevated the experience. Arrived feeling tired and frustrated, left feeling refreshed and renewed.

Restaurant prices were very high. $78 for breakfast - 2 Glasses of OJ, 1 Croissant with fruit and 1 Eggs Benedict 2 coffees. Had to call Front Desk to get house keeping to clean the room and still had to chase down a house keeper. This was close to 3:00 PM. This happened each day. Staff was very friendly.

This property is beautiful very quiet and serene. I had an experience with a front desk personnel named Ernesto who was very disrespectful. But the general manager and another staff member named Isaiah were VERY HELPFUL AND AMAZING. They were super sweet, professional and respectful. They truly turned my experience around for the better. They have exceptional customer service and I really appreciated all they did to take care of me. I would definitely recommend this hotel and I will be returning.
