Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Alex Hotel is favored for its location in the heart of the CBD, near wine bars and restaurants. Guests often appreciate the modern, boutique style, and many enjoy the mezzanine floor with complimentary tea, coffee, and snacks, alongside the kitchen access available throughout the day. The continental breakfast is also frequently mentioned as a plus, though a few guests have found the selection somewhat limited. A comfortable sitting area, record player, and free bike hire add to the appeal for many visitors.

the staff proved helpful , offering assistance when needed.

i encountered several issues . the noise level from nearby establishments persisted late into the night , disrupting sleep. furthermore , the breakfast selection felt limited , providing few options to satisfy diverse dietary preferences. THE hotel needs to address these concerns to improve guest comfort.

The room was clean with high quality products. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was included and provided a great start to each day. It had fruit, yogurt, and delicious pastries available.

The wifi connection wasn't very strong. I experienced some slower speeds during peak hours.
