This is our third stay in a year at the Alex and all our visits have been very pleasant. Our rooms clean and comfortable, an excellent selection of items at breakfast, fresh flowers and a coziness that feels like straying with a favorite family friend. The service has always been wonderful, the staff is warm and friendly which we really... more

I stayed here for 4 nights in June and really enjoyed it. Perfectly located for seeing the sights of Philadelphia. The hotel is clean and the staff are friendly. Just one word of warning though, I’d booked a ‘twin’ so expected 2 beds, but they told me a ‘twin’ was a single. I would stay there again. more

My husband & I stayed here for one night while we were in town to see a concert. We prefer to stay at small hotels rather than the big chains so I was quite happy to find this place. The staff were nice and they let us check in early. The room was a little small but comfortable enough. The... more

The personal service, breakfast, location and most important for me now, the price were all excellent. The complimentary services were exceptional. I would recommend this hotel to all of my friends and family. more

After a rough 7 nights in NYC it was fab to check in at The Alexander - comfortable, clean, and excellent service. Bedroom: perfect, comfortable clean beds, iron, safe, tv, a/c, alarm clock, fridge - what more do you need?? The bathroom only had a shower and not a full bath, but that suited me fine. Breakfast: fresh fruit, waffles,... more

This is a small hotel in a really good location. Lots of places to eat nearby. Staff were helpful. The room was small but well laid out and comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was good. more

A really good hotel this - only 48 rooms - a good sized room (if you opt for queen sized), friendly efficient and welcoming staff, free breakfast and great location for exploring this really interesting city. If we ever return to Philadelphia this will be our number one choice of accommodation - book it - you will not be disappointed. more

My husband, teenage daughter and I spent a long weekend, August, 2008 in Philadelphia to take in the historical sites. We had read the reviews of the Alexander Inn and thought it would be the perfect place to stay. We weren't wrong. We had a corner room on the top floor which was great and had plenty of room for... more

My new favorite hotel in Philadelphia is the Alexander Inn. Traveling for business (or pleasure) to downtown Philly is a treat because of the clean and easy to use train service between the airport and downtown. The Alexander Inn is a short walk from the Market East Station. Comfortable accommodations, pleasant service, an enjoyable breakfast all at a reasonable price... more

My colleague and I stayed at the Alexander Inn for a convention and I was very disappointed with the service. The individuals at the desk seemed to be uninterested in helping us out in any way. We had to change rooms after one night and I asked if we could leave our luggage in the room and they move it... more
