The Brandman Agency announced sister hotels, The Alexandrian and Morrison House, both part of Marriott International’s Autograph Collection, as the newest additions to its worldwide luxury travel and lifestyle portfolio. Located outside of Washington D.C. in heart of historic Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, the charming boutique properties strive to preserve the city’s rich heritage while remaining an integral part of the modern community.
The Alexandrian features 241 modern guestrooms with beautiful city views. The heated indoor pool family and pet-friendly atmosphere attracts visitors year-round while the extensive courtyard restaurant Jackson 20, known for its one-of-a-kind bourbon, is a local hotspot and city staple. Located only a few blocks away is the charming Morrison House set within an intimate Federalist-style mansion featuring only 45 luxurious guestrooms. The bed-and-breakfast style property offers unparalleled hospitality and service earning it’s bragging rights as the city’s only AAA four-diamond hotel.
Like stepping back in time, the cobblestone streets of Old Town Alexandria are lined with beautifully-maintained historic buildings, more than 200 independent restaurants and boutiques, a scenic waterfront and historic museums maintaining a charming, walkable neighborhood feel. While only a 30-minute ride outside of Washington D.C., the city feels a world away. It was proudly named the #1 Best Value U.S. Travel Destination 2018 by Money magazine, a Top 5 Best Small City in the U.S. 2018 by the Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards, and one of the South’s Prettiest Cities 2018 by Southern Living.
“We are thrilled to welcome The Alexandrian and Morrison House to The Brandman Agency portfolio,” said Melanie Brandman, Founder and CEO of The Brandman Agency. “Both properties are filled with character and are located in one of the most sought-after cities in the Northeast. We look forward to shining a light on all they have to offer.”
“We’ve proudly selected The Brandman Agency to elevate exposure for our properties,” said Michael Nelson, Area General Manager, The Alexandrian and Morrison House. “With the Agency’s reputation and strong media contacts, we are confident we will continue to drive the awareness that our properties deserve.”
