Cannot understand how there are negative comments for this hotel as we had a fantastic time. They let us into our rooms early, the staff were always freindly and very helpful. The rooms were spotless and the bed was the best I have ever slept in at a hotel bigger than a king size!!! We have stayed in Dublin 4... more

I also don't understand the negative comments on this hotel. The room was large, with a gigantic (king-plus) bed; luxury bedding and nice bathroom. The location was good--close to St. Stephen's Green, about a 15 minute walk to the Temple Bar area; we also walked to St. Patrick's Cathedral. The restaurant food was kind of mediocre--but it is Ireland, after... more

I stayed at the Alexander for two weeks, as a solo traveler (a friend joined me for part of the trip). The trip was half vacation/half geared toward genealogical research at the nearby National LIbrary of Ireland. This was my third trip to Ireland, and one of the best hotel stays I have had there. The staff was friendly and... more

We have just returned from a weekend at Alexander Hotel and we are very disappointed: - Inattentive and rude staff (specifically a woman called "Elsa" or something like this) - I was not very impressed with the servicing of the room (no mini bar by the way) - Heating didn't work and it was very noisy too - Comfortable bed... more
