Break out the bubbly, 2022 is almost here! After a truly unforgettable year (you can’t say it wasn’t) we’re delighted to toast to a new beginning 🥂 Here’s to looking forward, taking leaps of faith, exploring the cities on our bucket lists, and, of course, more adventures. Happy New Year!
A few morning essentials we just can’t live without – a strong cup of coffee, some stimulating reading material, and, of course, the irrefutable breakfast meat of choice: bacon. Order room service from our own Brabo Brasserie to start your day off on a delicious note. And hey, don’t forget to snap a photo and tag us when you share it with your fellow foodie friends on #NationalBaconDay. 🥓 🍳 🥚

Sure, it’s easy to scoff at New Year’s resolutions. You can make resolutions any time of the year, and it’s especially true that resolutions are often lost and forgotten. (Looking at you, gym membership.) But, this is as good of a time as any to take stock of your values, push yourself with new goals, and make some resolutions that can actually stick! And you love to travel, so why not resolve to travel better? Read our latest blog on the 10 Goals for Travel in the New Year. ✈️

Weekends like this remind us just how necessary the holidays are. We could go on and on to list all the best things about winter (eggnog, s’mores, oversized scarves, cheerful music, etc.), but what makes a holiday that much better is how *nice* it is to slow down and just be. Wherever you are today, join us in taking a moment to stop and smell the gingerbread cookies. Happy holidays! 🎄
Knock knock! Winter’s here ❄️
Ahhh winter. It’s that special time of year that sparks our insatiable craving for hot cocoa (or hot toddies). Sure, we could try to persuade you to join us for wine or cocktails by the fire, courtesy of our own Brabo Brasserie, on these chilly winter evenings... but, instead, we’ll just let the photo do the talking.

And just like that... we are only two short weeks away from a new year. Ok, we know that’s a little startling to hear – but it’s not too late to make the best of the rest of 2021! After you check that final gift off your list, reward yourself with a hearty glass of white wine from Brabo Brasserie (because wine always tastes better in Alexandria). 🥂
The holiday rush is no joke, but we always make time for a little friendly competition. On National Ugly Sweater Day, gather your closest friends and family to host the ugliest (we mean that in a good way 😉) dinner party of the season! With open reservations and catering options from our own Brabo Brasserie available, the only worry on your mind tonight will be dressing to impress for the ugly holiday sweater contest. We’re rooting for you and that cozy, sequined masterpiece you call an outfit to win. You got this! 🎄
It’s that time of year again: yes, the holidays are approaching faster than we can say eggnog. And after the past year, we can’t wait for quality time with family and friends, eating everything in sight and swapping gifts in front of an open fire. As travel continues to gear up, we’ve got some luxe gift ideas for the jet setter in your life, including you. Visit https://bit.ly/31KFNYB for a full guide of travel lover-approved gifts! 📸 @miraclepopup
If your Spotify Wrapped revealed a few (embarrassing) surprises this year, not to worry. Our Audio Aura was ‘wistful and euphoric’, which means it’s our job to tell you that visiting Alexandria and experiencing new adventures is the perfect way to shake up your music library. So, pause listening to Bad Bunny and Olivia Rodrigo for a few seconds, book that much-needed trip, and prepare to embrace the sounds of a new city. 🎶 📸 @albina.udovika
Is it just us or does it feel like 2022 is only a few blinks away? (We haven’t even finished our Thanksgiving leftovers yet!) But, alas, it’s officially time to start thinking about all the things we want to accomplish in the new year. Maybe we’re a little biased (read: definitely), but we believe New Year’s resolutions should include exploring a new city, taking your first solo trip, making time to unplug, or simply planning an unforgettable family vacation. Tell us your 2022 resolutions below! 📸 @johnnykindc
Looking back at a successful Small Business Symphony event with Brabo Brasserie and the Alexandria Symphony Orchestra. 🎄 A wonderful afternoon of live music, holiday shopping, and, most importantly, uplifting local businesses! We certainly hope to see you and yours again at upcoming events. Happy holidays! ❄️
If you catch someone smiling on a Monday, just know it’s *probably* because they saved up to 25% off our Best Flexible Rate on their next trip. Oh, by the way, you can too! Today is your last chance to book that long-awaited vacay to Alexandria with our Cyber Sale. P.S. We’re donating $5/night to our partners at No Kid Hungry. So go on, get your travel on. 🙌
We can’t imagine a world without craft cocktails, boozy brunches, and champagne toasts... Actually, we can, we just don’t want to! On National Bartender Day, we’re showing our appreciation for all that our master mixologists do to keep our glasses full. Celebrate with us by making it a night out at Brabo Brasserie and mix things up by ordering something you’ve been eyeing on the menu. May we recommend the French 75 cocktail? 🍹
Thank you all who were able to join us this past weekend for our Small Business Symphony event! It’s always a delight to support our local community, especially when it involves holiday cheer and fantastic music. As a token of our appreciation, guests who show their receipt of an Old Town small business purchase on Small Business Saturday are eligible for 10% off your bill at Brabo Brasserie through this Friday, December 3rd. ❤️
We hope you were able to join us for our concert in the courtyard last weekend, in support of Small Business Saturday! Don’t forget, guests who show their receipt of an event purchase are eligible for 10% off your bill at Brabo Brasserie through this Friday, December 3rd. Just our small way of saying ‘thank you’ for making a big difference in our community. Enjoy!
Time to read your daily horoscope – Kimpton style. Maybe it’s just us, but Sagittarius season is one of the *best* times of the astrological year for travel. Hear us out: the weather is crisp and perfect for PSL’s on-the-go, the moon is fuller than ever, and the stars perfectly align to lead us into the holidays! If that’s not a crystal-clear sign to book a dream trip to Alexandria – we don’t know what is. ♐

❄️ OUR WINTER SOCIAL PASSWORD IS HERE!! OUR WINTER SOCIAL PASSWORD IS HERE!! ❄️ Sorry, we got so excited to welcome back our beloved Social Password that we lost our cool. We’re calm now. So calm, in fact, you could say we’re ‘Just Chilling’ waiting for you to come see us. Starting today through February 21, say ‘Just Chilling,’ to our friendly front desk team at check-in, and you’ll be rewarded with a feel-good surprise. Also, feel free to lose the ‘g’ if you’re feelin’ it. Happy Winter, friends!

Seasons change, but we’re thankful for the holidays that keep them interesting! This Thanksgiving, we’ll be cooking up some comfort food at Brabo Brasserie and catching up with company that keeps us laughing through a second helping of stuffing... ok, maybe a third helping, but who’s counting? 🦃 Fill your hearts (and bellies) today and know that we’re thankful for you.
