The property had antique charm, excellent location, and helpful staff. The breakfast and happy hour were just right. It was noisy but I don’t live in a city so maybe that’s just me!
This hotel was very nice! The room was clean and functional for our trip purposes. We mainly used the hotel as a home base for sleeping. I appreciated the complementary breakfast and the staff were helpful and kind.

Place is ok but I wont go back. Location is great. Unfortunately, the shower filled on the first night and never drained the entire weekend. No parking whatsoever.
I enjoyed that the property was near by to many places to visits, the area was clean and felt safe, and the staff were very nice and helpful! Some things that I wish could be better were more breakfast options, more amenities in the room (like a microwave), and a bigger bathroom space to place personal toiletries. Besides that, this place was sufficient and very convenient for a short trip and would recommend.
It had a cozy feeling with amazing staff and great assistance. For every little inconvenience great care came in abundance. I can't wait until my visit.
This is my 4th time staying at Alexander Inn because the hospitality staff is great with communication and always available to help make your stay better with recommendation and friendly . The rooms are always clean and comfortable. Great location and very central to everything.
Great area. Great price. Everything was cozy and old school. Bed was comfortable. Walking distance to many restaurants and bars
Even have a little cocktail and snack hour every night 5-7. Continental breakfast is free.
Would definitely stay again.

The hotel facilities are outdated, but the location is quite convenient.
Breakfast offerings were just OK, but the 5-7 free wine social hour was very nice. The room was well kept and housekeeping was very thorough. They also post interesting nearby events on a bulletin board in the (very small) elevator, which I appreciated, and the staff overall was very kind. The Kandinsky print in our room was hung upside down, lol. Definitely a budget hotel with overall very good value.
It was a funky, charming space at the edge of historic Philadelphia. They had lovely complementary wine and appetizers each evening and a nice breakfast, all included in the price. Location was perfect.
Located in a beautiful historic neighborhood known for its 19th- and early-20th-century rowhouses and historic buildings, including charming brick townhouses, Victorian-era architecture, and picturesque narrow streets. Just a 6-minute walk from City Hall and Independence Hall, it’s perfectly situated for exploring Philadelphia’s historic landmarks and vibrant downtown
Every nights social hour was a welcome respite. A couple glasses of wine and a few snacks hit the spot. The facility is older and doesn’t hide its age well but it’s kept clean and current. Rooms are small and beds firm. The shower was strong and hot. No complaints! Sweetest staffing all around. Would definitely stay here again.
