Washington DC is a stone’s throw away from this chic apartment, but we think you'll love staying in historic Alexandria. This home has been designed to fuse comfort and style, making it the ideal base for a stay in Virginia. All the rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows, bringing in plenty of light. The living area has a chic white and grey colour scheme, and in the kitchen you'll find an island breakfast bar and coffee machine so you can start your day in style. If work is on the agenda then you can head to one of the shared lounge spaces to catch up on emails, or if it's a workout you need then the resident's gym is guaranteed to get your pulse racing. There’s even a yoga studio if you prefer exercising at a slower pace, and the sky lounge has panoramic views reaching across to Washington. From this spot you can easily explore the charms of Alexandria, with its cute shops and bars, or arrive in the US capital city within 15 minutes.
