    check-in delay
    overpriced breakfast

    My time at The Alex was quite enjoyable. The location stood out, close to Trinity College and just a short walk to the bustling city center. The King Room I got was beautifully designed. Loads of space made it comfortable for relaxing after exploring all day. I loved having a Nespresso machine in the room. Free bottled water. The gym shared with nearby hotels was impressive, plenty of equipment available. One hiccup came with check-in. I arrived early and had to wait a while for my room to be ready. I understand it was my fault for arriving at 11 am, but a bit more efficiency would have been nice. The breakfast buffet provided a fair selection, but it felt slightly overpriced. Staff friendliness was a constant plus throughout my stay, always willing to help out. Overall, a great experience with a few small areas to improve.

    Contemporary design and excellent service

    I had a fantastic stay with my family, enjoying a spacious Twin Room that was clean and modern. The location was perfect, just a short walk to key attractions, and the breakfast spread was delicious with fresh pastries and organic juices. The friendly staff truly enhanced our experience with their helpfulness. However, the parking situation was a bit confusing and could use clearer guidance.

    high-quality amenities
    convenient location
    check-in hassle

    Rooms feature high-quality amenities, allowing for a comfortable stay. The location is conveniently close to local attractions, making it easy to explore.

    Check-in is a hassle, as they don't allow you until 4 PM, and I had to wait longer after arriving. Though the room appeared spacious, the shower was surprisingly small for a suite—tough for those who enjoy a decent rinse. Also, the coffee machine didn’t work, leading to a prolonged wait for a fix, which broke the flow of my morning. On top of that, I found it oddly quiet in the bar during the evenings—sure, it may have been nice to unwind, but a bit more atmosphere wouldn't hurt. Parking seems tight too. if you're driving, plan on some extra time to figure it out.

    cozy room
    great breakfast

    would stay here again without hesitation

    Had a king room that was super cozy with air conditioning, a coffee machine, and a nice private bathroom. The hairdryer was handy, and the TV was decent. Loved the fitness center for a quick workout and the complimentary bottle of water. Great breakfast buffet with lots of options, including fresh pastries and juices.
