The Alexander Inn is a handsome, charming, bijou hotel in the heart of Center City Philadelphia. The location and ambiance are just right. The best part of my stay, however, was the staff:, funny, warm and wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble fro them. They have a talent for making you feel welcome without being fawning or intrusive. I chose the Alexander Inn for its location and its charm; I’ll return, thanks to the wonderful staff.

Our stay was amazing. They let us have breakfast as soon as we checked in, and they give you one ticket for free wine. The room was clean and overall everything was excellent. Would recommend this! 10/10
