This hotel (or inn) offers basic needs and a bit more. The room and hotel were clean. Hotel staff were friendly, efficient and will go out of their way to ensure your stay goes smoothly and to your liking. Great location! I wouldn't hesitate recommending Alexander Inn to anyone.

I love staying at the Alexander! It is convenient and charming, well-maintained and quiet, and I always make friends, at the evening Social Hours. I look forward to arriving, each trip, and am sad to say farewell.

Decent hotel for 2 night stay. Staff available & willing to help. Evening social was a nice add. Building was tired but it worked. Breakfast was disappointing at best.

This hotel is very well located but their rooms needs a lot of improvement. if you turn on the air conditioner is like having a truck running inside your room. The front desk staff is very friendly. Their breakfast though is not good and not well attended.

I my shoulder touched the shower curtain. The shower was very small. I loved the complimentary wine and charcuterie at happy hour. They continental breakfast and free filtered water are also great perks.

Disliked: Room comfort
The room was clean, the staff friendly. The location was convenient to places I wanted to see in Philadelphia. The “happy hour’ was good, breakfast was good. Drawbacks: the room was ice cold and we could not adjust the temperature. Parking was 3 city blocks away. Not convenient for bringing luggage to and from the hotel. No shuttle to/from parking. No place to pull up to the hotel to drop off luggage. The price was very reasonable for the location and distance to places of interest. I give it 3 stars. I would not stay there again, nor recommend it to anyone.
