Second visit

Our second visit to the Alexander Inn and we would definitely return. The staff at the front desk are incredibly helpful. Breakfast was lovely and drinks in the evening were very welcome after a day of walking. The room was clean although could do with a deep clean.

Hotel was very nice, but the breakfast was weak and underwhelming compared with other hotels I have stayed at. Though it worked, the elevator was very slow and creaky.

The location is excellent, perfect for a night in Center City. Room and bed were comfortable, just a little on the small side. Free cocktail hour and breakfast added a nice touch. Will definitely stay there again.

Kitchen needs better stock

The only downside was the breakfast. They did not have cream or 1/2 & 1/2 for their coffee. Only 2% milk or little packets of powered cream. That was unacceptable!
