Hotel had a nice vibe. Free breakfast was okay and the wine-and-snack social was fun. We'll come back.

Alexander Inn is wonderful! A classic small hotel that is affordable and refuses to be pretentious. Staff are extremely helpful and the location couldn’t be better. Hats off to a jewel in Center City.

Such a lovely place nestled into "The Gayborhood" of Philly and so close to the Ballet and our chosen restaurants for lunch and dinner. Staff was so friendly and the place clean and charming. Imagine being greeted by bird song as we woke up in the morning. Enjoyed the complimentary wine and cheese int he evening and we understood ther was soup in the afternoon and a breakfast as well. Not a modern, sleek hotel, but would recommend to anyone not looking fro glitz and glam. It had a kind of an old-world, only "insiders" know about this place charm!

This is an old hotel with filled with character and charm. The bed was comfortable and the windows open which I appreciated. The staff and house keepers are friendly and helpful. The location and price are excellent. I liked being in a neighborhood and walking distance to the main boulevards and the Kimmel.

My room was spacious and the bed very comfortable. The included breakfast was good for a light morning meal, and the evening social hour with wine and cheese, etc was a nice relaxing touch. I've stayed here many times in the past for the great location and friendly staff.

I booked a city view room for me and my partner for one night. Our stay was short but from the time I first booked, til I checked out staff was professional and friendly. Easy check in and check out. As someone who loves original character and charm this hotel was super cute and cozy. Clean, accommodating and welcoming. Will definitely book again next time I’m in town.

My stay at Alexander Inn was amazing, as usual, but Dresden made it extra amazing. I highly recommend staying here, the location is amazing and the staff, especially Dresden, will make sure your stay is as great as possible. I can’t wait to come back and stay here again.

5-7 was a guest welcome with wine and snacks. And breakfast in the morning until 10 with good coffee. Everyone is so nice here! And they discount parking at one of the local lots. Did I mention how nice everyone is? Cute/quirky deco vibe in a nice little neighborhood. The bed was comfy... even though the pillows werent great. Good...not great pillows. Not a deal breaker for me. I really liked this place
