The Alexander Hotel is conveniently located and an extraordinarily good value. The rooms are very clean and the complimentary continental breakfast is very well done. Joe Mck is exceptionally helpful at the front desk and a real asset to the hotel. I would not hesitate to recommend the Alexander Inn. More

A nice little hotel, well located. Rooms are small but clean. Breakfast buffet is pretty standard. Tria just across the street runs good happy hour deals. As long as you don't mind walking a few blocks there is easy access to the subway (or whatever the subway is called in Phila) and the bus routes on S. Broad St. More

The Alexander Inn is a quiet, clean and friendly hotel. I stay here frequently as my daughter lives very close to the hotel. The rooms are always clean and neat. The area is safe and the location is great for walking about the city. I have never had a "bad" stay at this city hotel. More

Friendly staff Great location Every time I visit Philadelphia I stay there More

The Alexander Inn was great....a beautiful lobby, welcoming staff, excellent continental breakfast, comfortable room, etc. The neighborhood (Washington Square) was mostly gay & has interesting shops, restaurants, etc. The hotel has been tastefully decorated; there is artwork in the hallways & jazz softly playing while you wait for the elevator. The view from our room was of downtown Philly; having... More

As I had never overnighted in Philadelphia before, I had to... More

Stayed one night in January based on the reviews on TripAdvisor and although I am rating it very good, would probably look for other accomodations for the next trip to Philadelphia. The good: excellent location. Was able to walk to South Street for cheese steaks, Independence Hall for history, Chestnut St for great meal at Chifa, Rittenhouse Square for shopping... More

We stayed at the Alexander Inn for our 2nd time for New Year's weekend and loved it once again. The location is perfect for both walking to all of the gayborhood's bars & restaurants, as well as the historical sites Philadelphia has to offer. The room rates are great and accomodations are nice and comfortable. All of the little things... More

I loved the cute neighborhood and alleys. I'd say the location is good for wandering to sites in all directions. The subway is close if you need it. Yes, it's an old building but it's an old city. My king size bed was very comfortable. Room size was great for one. TV reception was a little snowy but I had... More
