All the staff I encountered were very friendly, the room was comfortable and clean, the location was great for restaurants and not too far from popular historic sites and the grab and go breakfast was perfect to get a quick start to the day.

While all the staff were friendly and helpful, Max went above and beyond in determining recommendations tailored to my (very picky elderly) Mom’s tastes and comfort level for dining and sightseeing. He also was very patient in giving me directions (maybe more than once) and was always so engaging. His smiling countenance was the “cherry on top” of a wonderful visit.

I rated Alexander Inn a 5 in all categories but the best experience was Chris at the front desk. She was very helpful and extremely informative of where to go and what to do. Any time there was something needed during out visit she was quick to get it done. I travel quite a bit and have numerous experiences with front desk personnel and in my experience Chris ranks at the top of my experiences.

Lovely old hotel in a nice "Gayborhood" as they call it. Location was good for us because we love to walk but it's a bit of a hike from the 'old city' historic area and the parking garage is also several blocks away. It is also very expensive to park there, as is the case with most big cities. The front desk staff were all friendly and helpful. The room was small but charming, the bathroom was tiny and could be a challenge for large people. The continental breakfast was just perfect - juice, fruit, bagels, coffee and croissants.

The Alexander Inn is centrally located to City Hall, Love Park and the Liberty Bell. Parking at 12th and Walnut Street garage was easy and convenient. Both hotel and parking were reasonably priced with Travelzoo rates. Coffee and croissants put out in the morning were excellent and the sitting room was cozy and pleasant. We enjoyed the window nook in our room (had King bed deluxe) and enjoyed morning coffee in the comfort of our room while looking out at the city street. We enjoyed our stay. The Inn isn't fancy but it is comfortable. Chris and Christina at the front desk were very helpful and friendly. We would consider returning.

This is a hotel with an historic air about it, which is interesting, but has its downfall. There is no central air. We had a wall AC and a fan on the floor - this during heat wave in Philly. Bathroom and room is small Had to walk 3 blocks to park car - again in heat wave. Free breakfast is very sparse.

Front desk staff was exceptional. I called a couple days before to find out where the parking garage was that was discounted through them. Very clear directions and info given. Rooms are small, but clean and have everything you need. The small breakfast items they offer from 0730-1030 was a nice surprise! very good coffee, fresh croissants, fresh fruit.

The Alexander Inn is a small, older hotel but it is one we highly recommend! It is in the perfect area for shopping and dining and a short walking distance to all of the classic historical sites in the city. The rooms are a little on the small side, especially the bathrooms, but it was just the two of us celebrating our tenth wedding anniversary and it was more than enough space for us. The staff is extremely friendly, there is a free continental breakfast, and the entire hotel was kept very clean (which is so important when traveling these days).

The hotel has parking at a nearby garage, and we thought it was guaranteed at the time of booking. It was self-parking, and the garage was full. We drove around for an hour and a half looking for parking, and finally parked at the Eastern Penitentiary lot and took a Lyft back to the hotel. This was a major stressful inconvenience. The room was very clean and nicely decorated, but the bed and pillows were not the best, and the bathroom was very small. I tall man would have trouble moving about.

We were pleasantly surprised by how nicely appointed our room was, the way everything worked (plumbing, electric, etc.) and was easy to control, with plenty of plugs and storage space. The in room safe was easy to use. Everything was very clean. Loved the tile work in the room and the public areas. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The only thing I would request is a bit more food on the breakfast bar... perhaps some cereal, yogurt, butter, cheese.
