Alexander Inn

The location was hard to find, but very easy to operate once checked in.

It was okay this time. It wasn’t the best the last times I stayed :(

This is an unbelievably charming boutique hotel in the middle of Philly’s gayborhood. The only way I can explain this room is, and this is not a negative, it reminds me of a hug from a 1980’s Italian grandmother. Pink bathroom tile’s in perfect condition, old study Lewan doors, before they became cheap, and super short crush carpets. Loved it!

Friendly and helpful staff. Convenient location.

Very well maintained older property with charm that oozes from every part of it in an easy walk to anything neighborhood. Friendly & efficient staff. Clean room with AC. Very nice hospitality with a wine & cheese social in the evenings and a small continental breakfast in the mornings. The only con would be parking which is no fault of the hotel. The garage is 3 blocks away. It’s not a long or bad walk by any means however, the spaces are tight and it’s not cheap-Just keep that in mind.

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.

A really lovely place to stay.

Even have a little cocktail and snack hour every night 5-7. Continental breakfast is free. Would definitely stay again.

Breakfast and social hour snacks and wine were great perks. Staff was friendly and helpful. Bed was great. Nice walkable neighborhood. Carpet in the room was very old and did not feel very clean. Shower water pressure was very low. No refrigerator or coffee maker in the room but there was 24 hr hot/cold water and ice available in the first floor.

The place is getting a bit run down. Changing the temperature required calling the front desk so that the front desk person could come with remote to change the temperature (and then take the remote with her…ie they won’t trust you in room with the remote!).

Clean and quaint room. Pleasant staff and wonderful breakfast. Great place to stay, and I would come again and recommend to friends and family.

The hotel was excellent and it was very family oriented. The lady that checked us in was amazing and her hospitality was outstanding!!! We will back soon and thank you :)

There was something very quaint and cozy about the old-fashioned vibes of this historic inn. It was nothing fancy or pretentious and that's just what made it special. I had a small room and it had everything I needed. I was there during a record heatwave, so the AC wasn't working so well, but otherwise my room was great. The front desk staff people were very kind and helpful with recommendations for my trip. I especially loved the daily wine and snacks - a free happy hour - which is where I made some new friends who were also staying there (it was during America's big 250th birthday so we were all very excited about seeing the history and fun celebrations). There was only one staff member in the restaurant (during breakfast) who was always a bit grumpy and rude, but apart from him, everyone was very nice and I had an amazing experience during my first trip to Philadelphia. I would 100% recommend staying here again. Poor AC but it was during an epic heatwave, so I know the old AC was working as hard as it could. There was one rude and grumpy staff member who worked in the restaurant at breakfast time. He's not a pleasant person and should probably not work in a position where he interacts with customers. He didn't actually even work hard (he just stood around "waiting" for the guests to finish eating their breakfast but then even hours later it looked like he didn't tidy anything up), and most of all, he was just grumpy and rude acting like somehow the hotel guests were slowing him down with his day.

Very interesting decor and architecture. Close to everything. Great service and chocolate croissants.

The hotel is beautifully decorated, the staff was accommodating, the wine social hour and complementary breakfast were nice touches, it’s very well located but still quiet, the room was clean and comfortable.
