Lovely hotel really friendly staff would very much recommend. Excellent service close to city centre and all of the amenities. Great gym located in the hotel next door. We booked the executive room which came with complementary drinks which was well worth it.

Staff shows alarming lack of empathy or care for your individual situation. Beware: 4pm check-in time may be utterly non-negotiable (for some guests, apparently not all). Preferential treatment seems to be given to tour groups over individual travelers.

We were very pleasantly surprised at how spacious and beautiful our suite was when we walked in! We felt that every detail for design and function were addressed. We could not have been happier! Thanks to the staff too!

Good hotel, with comfortable rooms. Issues that did arise were dealt with swiftly with a change of room due to noise. The welcome pack of food was a nice touch (there was a lot of food and we ended up cancelling our dinner reservation). We didn't have a breakfast as we needed to check out early to get to the ferry terminal. Would stay again.

Centrally located, The Alex is a wonderful hotel in walking distance from most of Dublin's primary attractions, and certainly an easy Uber to any too far to walk. Despite being downtown our room was quiet and cozy. The decor is immaculate and cleanliness is clearly a priority. The rooms themselves are spacious, cool (proper AC!), and beautifully appointed with a very modern throw-back appeal ... kinda like you're in an awesome Wes Anderson film in Ireland. There's also a very good coffee shop in the lobby. Overall A+ and would return.

Jason and his staff provided extraordinary service and attention to all of our needs. We traveled in Ireland for 2 weeks with stays at two 5 star castles. Jason and his staff stood out and provided for us and exceeded all expectations. We would gladly return and recommend The Alex to all family and friends.

Comfortable hotel in good location for weekend break. The rooms were lovely and clean with nice bathroom. Great breakfast, although some of the staff in the restaurant could have been more pleasant. Helpful staff on reception. We would stay here again.

The location is fantastic, the gym is in another hotel around the corner, the executive lounge is not worth the extra money (coffee machine unusable one day, cappuccino function broken all week, lounge was not replenished more than once during our week stay) housekeeping did not replenish items in the room, the A/C was not very good in the unusual hot weather. The bed was comfortable, water pressure was very low. A solid 3 star hotel experience.

The decor at the Alex hotel is very cute and modern and it is in a quiet location closely located to the city center. It was clean and cozy but the rooms were lacking a bit. It seems like they spent all their money on the decor for the lobby and none for the room. That wouldn’t stop me from staying there again but I just thought it was weird there was no dresser. Either way, a cute and comfy place.
