Absolutely wonderful place to have our wedding.
I cannot say enough fantastic things about our time at the Duvall House. The house was the perfect location for our small wedding in the back patio, and the lodging was perfect for our families who came in from out of town. The house itself is chock full of great talking points, ambiance, and the location cannot be beat just blocks away from the main part of Old Town. And the host Chris is the best host you could ask for, helping to set the house up appropriately for our special day. Cannot recommend this place enough!

We had a wonderful stay at the Duvall House! This historic gem truly takes you back in time, commemorating the legacy of George Washington. The experience of staying here was unparalleled - it felt like stepping into a piece of living history. The ambiance was charming and inviting, perfect for our small working group retreat. The house is well-equipped for gatherings, and the cozy atmosphere made it ideal for intimate dinners. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience!

Charming Comfortable Clean
If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable and charming home in the heart of Old Town and minutes from DC, look no further. Tucked behind City Hall and steps from vibrant King Street, the house offers a quiet place to relax and sleep yet is only a few minutes walk to charming shops and restaurants and a very short drive to DC museums. The host could not be more gracious and easy to work with.

Wedding Weekend
We brought the family to VA/MD for a weekend wedding. The venue was at Oxon Hill Manor which was a short 15min ride. Many of the guests were at Hotel Indigo just a short walk from the house which provided us easy access to all the events around the wedding. The house was in immaculate with many historic pieces throughout. We travelled with our 2 adult children and the property was more than comfortable for 4. We were only a block or 2 from the Potomac, shops and fantastic restaurant options as well. There was plenty of parking in the area but we used Uber to easily travel to all destinations. The Old Town neighborhood was a terrific place to visit and Chris’ property was the perfect spot for us. We plan to return and highly recommend it for others

Revolutionary Era/Modern Conveniences
From start to finish the hosts were accommodating with all requests. Duvall House displays an interesting collection of historical artwork, furniture and decor. The AC cooled the premises even though the temperature reached high 90s. The kitchen was well equipped. The location was within walking distance to the pier. We have stayed in several other historic homes but none of them had the same mix of history and modern “necessities”. The home was unusually quiet for a historical home. I highly recommend it to families with students studying American history. We hope to return and hold a luncheon in the ballroom.

Just wow…
We are history buffs and this couldn’t have been a better property. Both for the location and for the house itself. We felt like we were going back in time but with modern conveniences. The location saved us money on car rental as we didn’t need one as well. The hosts were responsive and helped in so many ways. We will be back.

Absolutely Perfect!
What an amazing property! Chris was a FANTASTIC host. The house was perfect for my family that came into town visiting me for a military celebration. The location is so safe and with street parking right in front, made it easy to load/unload, especially with a baby. The space was immaculately clean and pet friendly. Even though it was historic, it had all the modern amenities we could ever want, including a much appreciated air conditioning. Also, the ground floor bedroom and bath for my father was perfect. The property is within walking distance of EVERYTHING in Alexandria and it was so nice not to have to worry about driving. We ate at a lovely Italian restaurant only a block away and then my family explored the riverfront. We also took advantage of being so close to the Torpedo factory and another restaurant right on the riverfront with outdoor dining that was also dog friendly. Chris went above and beyond with a lovely welcome basket, informative historic book, and facilitated two street parking passes. We also used parking in the garages that were extremely close/reasonably priced. Chris even made sure the sleeping arrangements were as we had requested (two additional blow up beds and even a crib provided). It was stress free not having to worry about linens and toweling. When we accidentally left a necklace (he noticed first), Chris reached out immediately and mailed it. Thank you for making such a memorable stay for my family and I would absolutely book again!

Outstanding place for visiting DC, Alexandria
Outstanding property and host. Great spot for visiting DC. A block away from the trolley stop that will take you to the Metro. Runs 11am to 11pm little over a mile walk if trolley isn’t running. Alexandria is also a great spot to visit in itself, coffee shops, restaurants, shopping etc. also the Alexandria Riverfront. The home is comfortable, clean and well kept. Would highly recommend.

Great place for anything
I cannot express my appreciation to chris m. First he was extremely responsive and accommodating. Having colleagues fly in from Europe to work on a project, I needed a place where everyone could stay, comfortably, work during the day and go out to experience historical Alexandria. The Duval was perfect, plenty of room to work together and still have areas for privacy. Everyone loved it , we were very productive and enjoyed ourselves, too. There were so many small details that were taken care of, down to the welcome basket of treats and wine! Thank you! We will definitely be taking advantage of this wonderful location again soon

The house was breathtaking...there were so many beautiful pictures and period pieces it was hard to take them all in. The house was very well appointed and your every need taken care of. All the beds were comfy and warm, the kitchen had more than enough stocked essentials. We loved sitting arounnd the beautiful copper topped table in the kitchen for morning coffee and late night drinks. We stayed in many rental properties and Chris has been by far the most helpful and attentive host we have ever had. I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone! Thank you Chris for making our say so comfortable and enjoyable.

A Fun Experience
Staying at the Duvall Historic Home was a fun experience for our family of five. Despite its old-world feeling, the place is very clean, beds are comfortable, showers were hot and there was plenty of room for everyone. Kitchen had everything we needed although we didn’t cook—just brought in carry out. The location is perfect for exploring Old Town Alexandria and when we went into Washington DC it was a quick 15-minute drive. We rented a car and parked in a parking garage very close to the property when we needed to park overnight. Highly recommend Lavender Moon cupcakes down the street—amazing!!

Thankful for a great Thanksgiving
This was an incredible property for our Thanksgiving celebration. Chris was a wonderful host setting up the tables in advance, answering my multiple questions in advance quickly and even stopped by to help me when I couldn't figure out the TV. We prepared the feast onsite in the kitchen, and served our sit down meal for 19 in the ballroom. Pre-dinner cocktail hours were hosted in the main level parlors which spilled out to a lovely courtyard. Everyone enjoyed the space, and the exuberant nods to George Washington, and has asked that we repeat our celebration at Duvall House next year. And the location is perfect. You can walk to a wide variety of restaurants, coffee shops, and the weekly Farmers market within a few blocks. We recommend this is a perfect venue for events, family reunions and any visit to Alexandria and the Nations Capital.

Lovely Summer Family Ladies Get together
What a perfect place for the ladies in my family to gather and honor my sister who is getting married in a few weeks. We loved every aspect of this historical home which my mom and sisters had a difficult time leaving. We wanted to stay forever! Chris was incredible and was there from start to finish to answer every question i had with the utmost genteelness. He was a superb host! You will not find better. He catered to our USMC family of ladies and we felt completely at home. We were supplied everything we needed for a wonderful relaxing weekend including a complimentary bottle of champagne, bottle of red wine & snacks in a welcome basket. What a beautiful home to do live music in! Too! The harp and cello sounded exquisitely beautiful in the downstairs parlor/historical music room. We are already looking forward with anticipation to the next time we can plan a family visit to The Duvall house. Aka historical Duvalls Tavern” Thank you Chris for your kindness!

This was a great location in Alexandria for sightseeing in DC. Lots of restaurant options within walking distance for the two families that stayed in the house. Historical decorations in the house went well with the theme of our DC sightseeing vacation. Metro into DC was easily accessible by the free King street trolley (11 am-11pm) in Alexandria.

Excellent property in a great location
What a fabulous house! We were out fir my father in law’s interment at Arlington. My hubby grew up on the west coast and is a bit of a history buff. We were both wowed by the house and location. A couple of family members stayed with us and there was plenty of room for both privacy and socialization. Communication was flawless and the hosts did everything possible to make our stay enjoyable. For future guests, it is worth mentioning that there is a bike check out service 1/2 block away, which sometimes makes quick trips to the store or local historic sites easier than a rental car or Uber.

Delivered everything promised and more
We had a delightful family stay in this historic townhouse in old town Alexandria. Our children came away with a new appreciation of George Washington and the early history of our country. The owner was very responsive throughout our stay and also graciously allowed us a late checkout on the day of our departure. We were also very happy to reserve the small ballroom on the second floor for a special occasion family dinner of 30 people. Our guests admired the character and history of not only the ballroom but also all of the public rooms of the house. We heartily recommend Duvall House for anyone interested in exploring the historic quarter and waterfront of Alexandria or hosting an intimate event of their own.

The location was perfect. It was a lot of fun to stay in a historical building. We were a group of 6 adults and we had plenty of room. Chris was very responsive throughout the process. Prior to our arrival I was concerned about parking since we had to rent an enormous SUV for the six of us. Not a problem - covered parking lot two blocks from the house.

Family trip to DC
Staying at Duvall House is truly living in history! We took our children ages 13-5 on their first DC trip, and we loved having Duvall house as our home base. The house certainly gives you the feeling of stepping back in time while at the same time being very clean and comfortable. It was a great place to relax after a busy day of tours and sightseeing. We also loved being right in the middle of Old Town so close to so many great restaurants, the Wharf, the Mt. Vernon Trail, shopping, and so many historic sites! We hope to visit again!

We have been to Alexandria many times so our stay was mainly to meet with and visit family. We spent much of our time in the home and it was a delight to explore! Perfect location to access anything in Old Town as well. Chris was an attentive but not overbearing host, which we have all come across!

Family vacation and mobility issues
This wonderful house was the basis for our family to gather in historic VA to see family who have not been stateside for 10 years. The linens are great, beds comfy, kitchen equipped, and clear checkout instructions. The house is awesome. We had a mobility impaired member (walker and can do a few stairs). The first floor (8 steps up from street)bedroom with its own fridge and sink and laundry room AND a bathroom, all next to the wonderful 1 step down patio with auto lighting was fantastic. She loved it, and we were able to all sit and relax in the great weather. Cafe around the corner and 1/2 block up, great vietnamese food 1 block up. Gatsby's 1 block up. Would not do a wheelchair bound buddy but if your person can do 8 steps with handrail, book it. Of course King Street awesomeness is 2 blocks away and the trolly is 1 block away. Chris was excellent and responsive. What a marvellous place. K

This property was amazing and I have stayed in lots of places through VRBO. We are already planning our next trip. The pictures of the home do not do it justice. It has to be seen to be believed. We were like kids in a candy shop when we first walked in and explored this property. Also, the location could not be better. And to make this experience truly memorable, the property owner Chris is the best. You cannot go wrong with renting here.

Best location ever
As former Alexandria residents, we knew that a location next to City Hall would be a great central location for walking around Old Town. Parking was easy with the provided street pass and we also used the free trolly to the metro. Parking and the trolly stop were each within a couple of blocks. The property itself is lovely and very spacious. We slept five with no difficulties. As history buffs, we had a good time with the many Washington-themed items and artwork, and enjoyed reading the history of the property. For such an old building, the AC and electricity all worked well and the bathrooms were nicely updated. Last, Chris left us some nice goodies to enjoy in the kitchen and communication leading up to our stay was great. Thanks for helping to make our trip "back home" so enjoyable!

The Heart of Old Town
How great is it to stay in a historic home that pays tribute to George Washington. We chose to site in every sitting room and ball room just to say "we were here". There's a museum-like feel, with so many images of George and Martha Washington, with all the comforts of home, and we loved sitting in the courtyard out back in the evening. The house had everything we needed, minus 1 corkscrew, but easy to find in Old Town. You couldn't get a better location, adjacent to Market Square, and less than 5 minutes to the waterfront. This is a must-do for anyone who loves old homes, history, and a ton of space.
