Our stay st the Alexander Inn was fantastic! We were looking for a place in the hubbub of downtown Philly and this place certainly delivered. Our room was gorgeous and spacious. Nothing was out of order or went wrong. The continental breakfast and complimentary beverages was a highlight. There is a parking garage down the street that they discount, but it is still fairly expensive. The Inn was close to public transportation and in a great central location to walk to Philly's many attractions. The staff was super friendly and helpful when we had questions. The frint desk staff and the staff who worked the breakfast room were all friendly. We stayed on the 3rd floor and there was certainly lots of noise from the street reaching our room during the daytime bit it quiets down at night. I will definitely be coming back next tome I am in Philly!

Cute hotel with a vintage vibe. Centrally located, walking distance to most of downtown attractions, Reading Market is less than 10 minutes walk. Service in the hotel was great!

Liked: Cleanliness
The location was perfect for me. Check in was a bit rough as I was given the wrong room and then charged multiple times. The social is basic you get a ticket for a drink and there are some snacks. The room for me was small and since this is a pet friendly hotel I was lucky to get the room next to the yappy dog. Breakfast ...I was up early and it appeared that someone took all the options. I could not find anyone to replenish so I am no sure what was there. Cute place but maybe in the wrong management hands...

At first i was not too sure of the location as i had never visited Philly before. However i had a sigh of relief upon reaching the hotel & the overall surrounding area being safe. The hotel was charming & comfy, and the staff was very helpful esp the lady who checked me in & gave suggestions for cheesesteak & also walking directions, she was really good! The room was spacious & the bed was firm which i appreciated. Bathroom was clean. Good location- quiet but safe as mentioned & within short distance to the city main sights. I do appreciate the hotel makes an effort- they have a free breakfast offering as well as complimentary light bites during the pm.

Love the architecture and the feeling of stepping back in time. The elevator was medieval. That's too far back in time.
