We stayed at the Alexander as a result of the price and a recommendation from a friend. Our room was a superior with queen bed which was extremely tight to say the least. You do expect smaller rooms in NYC but this felt especially small. The queen bed was a good size and comfortable and the bathroom was modern and... more

First of all I don't know what I was thinking going to NYC with small children...must have been delusional. I was traveling with two toddlers. The Alexander hotel advertises that it's near subway stations...true enough but I'm from Florida and assuming that there is an accessible elevator at every station. Now mind you that's not the hotel's problem; however, there... more

My wife & me choose this hotel for the good comments we saw on internet We booked a double room with private bathroom (strongly specified at the moment of the reservation). Once we arrived for the check-in (very late in the night), we were told that our room was with shared bathroom; anyway the assured me to solve the problem... more

it does have its downside. From their website, everything looked good, until I went in. Didn't realize in NY you don't have private bathrooms in your room. Beds were hard as rock at best, and there was no parking, except the street parking or garage next door. anyways, you get what you pay for. Staff was alright, location is decent,... more

Have recently spent a week here, as a solo traveller and it was perfect for my needs... As I said it was cheap and with no frills... But the room was just right and very clean, I had a shared bathroom which again was very clean an there were no issues on the sharing, I never had to wait -... more

Our daughter was married in the Upper West Side on Nov 8, 2009. There were 180 people coming to the wedding, many coming from all over the country and staying 3 nights. I had heard about the NYC hotel prices and was afraid some people would not come to the wedding if 3 nights in a hotel was beyond their... more

We found the hotel to be in an excellant location, very close to broadway. Every morning we took a different route into the city, either taking different route through central park or getting on the underground, less than a 10 minute walk away. There were lots of restaurant nearby & Carmines restuarant was an american family experience we will never... more

They probably don't have the room available you booked! And they don't care about that!! They are not even interested in any customer satisfaction! We stayed for five nights and had to change rooms twice (!!!), so stayed in three different rooms!! Of course we got NO compensation for that, just bold comments from the unfriendly and incompetent stuff. Need... more

I was shocked at how big my room was and at such a great price! I've been coming to NYC for a yearly shopping trip since 2000 and a friend recommended Hotel Alexander to me based on the location. This was by far the my best stay for my money in the past 9 years! The staff was very friendly... more
