Virginia Hotels
Ah, Virginia. Where to start? How about Virginia Beach, whose three-mile boardwalk, surfer-friendly waves and plentiful oceanfront hotels make it one of America’s best beach cities? Or head to nearby Norfolk, where you can visit a museum dedicated to the life of General Douglas MacArthur before sampling the pleasures of downtown’s NEON Arts District. At the northern edge of the commonwealth lies stately Alexandria, renowned for its 18th- and 19th-century architecture and its views across the Potomac River to Washington, D.C., where Travelzoo has deals for all sorts of family-friendly activities. Alexandria’s highly walkable Old Town district, dotted with boutique hotels, is the perfect peaceful spot from which to make a day trip to the nation’s capital.
