FAMILY FRIENDLY HOTEL
The Westin Alexandria Old Town
Get ready to immerse yourself in a perfect blend of historic charm and modern elegance at the Westin Alexandria Old Town, the official venue for the SENG Annual Conference! Located just a short walk from the Washington Metro station, you can easily hop over to DC to explore the nation’s capital, or, for our east coast friends who prefer the scenic route, the Amtrak station is equally walkable for a smooth train ride in.
Staying at the Westin means you're not just attending the conference—you’re in the heart of historic Old Town Alexandria. Wander the cobblestone streets, discover quaint boutiques, and indulge in the delightful dining scene that ranges from cozy cafés to waterfront restaurants. You'll find plenty to do, from visiting the Torpedo Factory Art Center to taking a scenic stroll along the Potomac River. For even more fun activities, check out Visit Alexandria.
And don’t forget, being at the conference venue means maximizing your networking opportunities with fellow members of the SENG Family! Whether it’s over breakfast, during a casual evening walk through Old Town, or at one of the fantastic local restaurants, the chance to connect outside of conference sessions adds an extra layer to your experience. Be where the action is and make the most of your time in Alexandria!
