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.

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.

The Alexander Hotel is convenient to recreation, sporting events, and sightseeing; arts and entertainment; dining and shopping; work venues and transportation. But, so are many other hotels. What sets the Alexander Inn apart is its quaint setting, in a historic neighborhood, and its staff, each of whom is welcoming and professional. When you stay at the Alexander Inn, you are treated as family (family you enjoy being around!) and not just a room number. And, the nightly Social Hours allow guests traveling alone to mingle, if they choose to, in much the same way guests do at a bed and breakfast. I would not stay anywhere else in Philly!
