I stayed at this hotel with my boyfriend on my trip to Philly for the PDR (Philadelphia Distance Run). I have to agree with many of the previous reviews which state that the staff was friendly, the hotel was clean and quiet and location was amazing. Parking was also cheap compared to other hotel parking in downtown Philly. This is... more

My friend and I travelled to Philadelphia from Toronto via New York, and we loved this hotel. The staff were extremely friendly, the rooms were great and spacious, and the location could not be better. It is about 5 blocks from the Walnut-Locust subway station, and Broad Street, about a 10 minute walk from the Reading Terminal Market and City... more

Stayed one night with my best friend while visiting for her birthday. Love the atomosphere and the location. Walking distance to South St. and Philadelphia Magic Gardens, and LOTS of other stuff downtown. Or if you don't like to walk, take a taxi. The staff was friendly, the room was clean and the bed comfy. Breakfast was more than sufficient... more

The Alexander Inn is a great place to stay when visiting Philly. Very reasonalbly priced and centrally located with every kind of restaurant within walking distance. My room was on the small side but spotlessly clean and looked as if it was newly decorated in the art deco style. A cold breakfast is provided which was very good as well.... more

Like many other reviewers here, we chose the Alexander Inn based on reviews here on TripAdvisor. It was a wonderful experience and we hope to return when visiting Philadelphia again. We have two young daughters, ages 10 and 8, and found this interesting hotel to be in a nice neighborhood, and within walking distance to most local attractions. Our room... more

Price is right, $149 for a king-size bed and bay window view of city. Fairly quiet neighborhood with restaurants nearby. Breakfast is buffet, but would have liked a microwave to warm up the sweet rolls. Also would have liked a thermos of hot water to make hot drinks to go with the fruit and sweet rolls that were available at... more

Had the pleasure of staying at the Alexander Inn between September 6th - 8th. Read great reviews on here so was expecting good things, and wasn't disappointed. It is in a great location, with great bars and restaurants literally around the corner, and within easy walking distance of most of Philly's sites. The staff were superb, the simple continental style... more

Alexander inn is in a great location for downtown Philly. The Inn is in a busy area but the rooms are totally silent which is great. Breakfast is a cold continental buffet style and there is always plenty of food. The location means that once you have arrived you dont need a car. The Inn do point you to a... more

This hotel has customer service down to a science. Every one was super nice and helpful. The hotel is very much a boutique hotel, rooms are small but very clean. The complimentary breakfast was just perfect. Location fantastic! (But stay away from Mixto right around the corner -- horrible experience there with an amazingly rude waitress. She could learn something... more
