Hotel Lorien Old Town Alexandria

Hotel Lorien is a lovely modern couterpart to its sister hotel down the street where we’ve stayed in past years. 

Mr. F&F and I were attending his company party that evening and the Hotel Lorien was a stone’s throw to the party.  I’m still partial to Monaco but did enjoy the modern design elements and attention to detail at the Lorien. Starting with the room’s lovely headboard and cement counter as a feature element in both the bath and the desk area.

…the hotel hosts a cocktail hour and coffee bar in the lounge area off the lobby…homey and comfortably modern…

I love getting inspiration from travel and well designed hotels should feel like a home away from home.  But most importantly, this was a great weekend of respite for Mr. F&F and me.  Gotta do this more often, sir!
