    Pros +

    • I liked the location, near the university and close to the downtown pedestrian areas but in a quiet neighborhood. The hotel was very modern and comfortable.
    • Hotel and room very stylish. Staff very helpful. Breakfast was great. Location was quite.
    • The staff was extremely friendly. Also, the decor and cleanliness were impeccable.

    Cons -

    • I selected this hotel specifically because it listed AC and the AC was very weak and I had to sleep with the window open to get the room cool enough to be comfortable.
    • Location little far from attractions, but in quite/peaceful location, close to train.
    • A little difficult to find so make sure you have a map at the ready after arriving at the train station, or take a quick taxi.

    Staff was very nice

    Room was very small. No coffee maker in room and we paid over $9 euros for two coffees.

    8JulianPosted on: 6-6-2025

    Excellent location, friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast

    Rooms were a tad small.

    9ManuelePosted on: 6-1-2025

    Walking distance from the Amin train station. Quiet, clean and neat environment. The breakfast was offering everything you need in little quantity that I found fair and sustainable.

    Nothing to report

    Lovely hotel - great option to be near the train station. A short walk into the town.

    The rooms were quite small - albeit clean and comfortable.

    7BenPosted on: 12-31-2024

    Good location. Clean and modern features

    Given a single duvet for a double bed. I thought that was poor when paying for a full room for 2 nights.

    8EmmeliPosted on: 10-23-2024

    Nice, modern and clean hotel with comfortable beds. Friendly staff and over all a nice stay.

    I the room I was missing slippers, bathrobe and water. For the price of the room I belive this is normal to be included.

    Spotless clean and everything very modern. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Attention to details: eh assortment of soap and shampoo and lotion bottles renewed every day (I hate it when soap is just a big bottle hanging from the wall). Very quiet location. Conveniently locate close to the center, the railway station and the university.

    The duvet on the bed was very small: it did not get beyond my lower chest if I wanted it to cover my feet. And also rather narrower than the mattress

    Staff is very friendly, hotel is quite new and modern

    Quite small rooms

    9FikriPosted on: 4-18-2024

    Clean and modern hotel. Renovation looks new, hotel was clean. I was happy with the hotel and would definitely stay again.

    The toilet’s dry area had no proper drainage. As the shower is small and the shower screen has no door, water easily splashes out. The flooring of the toilet was tilted towards the toilet door, and as a result i woke up with a puddle of water in front of my door the next morning

    7IvoPosted on: 2-25-2024

    Hotel was overall good. Clean, well-maintained, beautiful. Staff was polite and friendly.

    The breakfast is very very limited. And the refilling of finished products took ages or did not happen.The parking situation is pretty bad. We were offered a garage space for 20 euro a night but they said It'd be "too small" - we have a Golf. Parking outside is readily available but for 3.80 euro/hour. If you want a cheaper option, there is a parking 1m away which costs 10 euro a day. Which was ommitted by the staff.

    The room was modern and clean. They offered breakfast and the WiFi worked well. The Check in process was also smooth.

    I recently stayed at The Alex Hotel for two nights, and I must admit that my experience was far from what I had hoped for.The first issue was the size of the room. It was much smaller than I had anticipated based on the information provided during the booking process. This lack of space made it somewhat uncomfortable to move around and relax in the room.However, the most significant problem was the malfunctioning electronic window. It wouldn't close properly, which meant that the room's air conditioning couldn't function as it should. This issue was not discovered until after midnight, causing some disruption to my night's sleep. Despite notifying the hotel staff promptly, they were unable to resolve the problem in a timely manner.In an effort to address the inconvenience, I politely asked for compensation in the form of a complementary breakfast. Unfortunately, my request was declined by the hotel staff, which was disappointing.In summary, my stay at The Alex Hotel left much to be desired. I expected a more comfortable and trouble-free experience. While the issues I encountered were not major, they did affect my overall satisfaction with the stay. I hope the hotel can address these concerns to ensure a better experience for future guests.
