My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed the Alexander Inn. Although the rooms were small, the location, cleanliness, comfortable bed, in room safe made up for it. We found the staff very friendly and helpful. We will certainly stay there again when we come down to see the Eagles play and would recommend this place to anyone. more

My sister and I stayed here Halloween weekend and really enjoyed our visit. The hotel was exactly as we expected from all the reviews on TripAdvisor. We got a room at the end of the hall and I suspect it was just slightly bigger than a regular room. Perfect for the 2 of us. The windows open in the bedroom... more

Went to Philly for an overnight stay with family. Hotel was in a quiet safe neighborhood conveniently located within walking distance from many historical sights (Independance Hall) and restaurants. The hotel was charming. The room was spacious and clean with a large bay window overlooking the neighborhood. Found that it was very quiet at night. No outdoor noise like you... more

This hotel is a good find for the business or budget traveler. The location is terrific--Spruce Street is very pretty and you can walk to most of Center City--and the service was very good. There was always someone at the front desk and my room was always tended to in a timely manner. My room itself was fairly spartan and... more

Just got back from a four-night stay at the Alexander Inn. What a perfect choice! My business conference was located at the Loews Hotel six short blocks away. I saved about $70 a night. Loved the breakfast (very generous continental-plus), loved the service (at the front desk, the breakfast room, and the cleaning staff), loved the location, and truly loved... more

Alexander Inn is way better than a traditional boutique hotel. It should meet most of your desires if you are not looking for a large anonymous hotel with a swimming pool and an expensive mediocre restaurant. The staff (owners?) are super personable and obviously enjoy being there and hosting people -- something you may find at a smaller B&B, but... more

After spending five nights in NYC with hotel standards of (to say the least) various standards, it was a bliss arriving to Alexander Inn. From check in to check out= great! We hade booked a double double room which was a large beautiful decorated room with a nice "gaybourhood view". The location is superb with walking distance to practically everything!... more

I chose this hotel entirely based on the Trip Advisor reviews and responses to questions when i called the hotel. I was pleasantly surprised on all counts. I arrived nearly three hours before check in. I... more
