Absolutely loved our stay. We stayed for 3 nights and this is such a beautiful hotel. The design and thought behind everything was impeccable. Everything is pristinely clean. Loved the Kiln as well as the speakeasy. Next time we make it back to Alexandria/DC we will be sure to stay again!

Nice hotel. Rooms are spacious and everything is in really good condition. Friendly staff. My only complaints: no way to regulate the room temperature, and the water pressure could be higher. Everything else was great!

We stayed in the building that is separate from the check in building. I did not like that the door was left unlocked all day and I’m not sure about the night because I was in by 10 PM and the door was still unlocked. I got up the next morning for coffee by 6:30 in the morning and it was still unlocked so I don’t know if was left unlocked all night

We excited about staying in this Hotel. The rooms were clean and wonderful. The Hotel was well appointed and wonderful decorated. The staff was friendly . The Hotel had a very good restaurant. Despite these wonderful appointments I wouldn’t stay there again. Expedia price says expressly taxes and fees included. We where charged an additional $87.00 in fees and taxes during our stay. The Hotel did provide a $50.00 credit but charged us $267.00 for “incidentals “ for two nights, that they deducted the taxes . I was planning on recommending this hotel but I will not do so . I hope this didn’t happen to other patrons and just me. If that is the case shame on this Hotel.

Fabulous NYE 2025 at Hotel Heron!

Had a great stay at Hotel Heron for New Year's. I was one of the lucky few that got to experience the amazing 10 course tasting dinner at Kiln that was very special and so deliciously decadent!
