Just a short
drive away from Washington D.C., Alexandria continues to be a popular vacation
spot for families, with historic sites miles away and a great view of the
shore. Alexandria also has the best
lodging in Virginia, ranging from high scale resorts to quieter name-brand
hotels, all within Alexandria's famous Old Town area. Although lodging here is traditionally kid
friendly -- along with being somewhat expensive -- Alexandria always has
something to fit any size or budget.
Motels are sparse here, however, so don't expect it.
If you have
money to burn, check out the shore for the most expensive hotels in
Virginia. In close proximity to the
shore's best attraction, the food, the view is best during the early morning
where kids can surf the waves safely and quietly. Get a whirlpool suite in their famous resorts
for peace and quiet during your vacation.
Some resorts also include waterparks for kids to play in.
If you want
the taste of fun and elegance without the hefty price, consider staying in the
Old Town area, a preserved downtown district in downtown Alexandria. Virginia's hidden gem, name-brand hotels here
manage to hold Virginia's historic look while bringing modernism (and fun) to
Old Town Virginia. For lodging that fits
a budget, consider a stay in the name-brand hotels in the middle of Old
Town. These hotels usually include fun,
kid friendly attractions inside their hotel perfect for entertaining kids
during the evening.
