Staff were great, rooms were very comfortable and it’s in a great location
IrelandWe had a lovely, comfortable stay at The Alex. Absolutely loved the decor and staff were great. We were happy to find a pool table in the residents bar as well. Hotel is handy for town. As it’s situated behind trinity you are close to all of the best shops in city centre though while staying on a quiet enough street. The nearby street parking is free at the weekend too.
IrelandThe whole experience was incredible start to finish. Felix who worked on the front desk was so attentive & warm. Will definitely return.
AustraliaThe staff were exceptionally very accommodating and helpful
IrelandEvery member of staff we came across were so friendly! Being quite anxious about staying in a hotel during Covid, knowing the policy that the hotel was following put my mind at ease and was more than happy with how the hotel operated during this time. Would definitely stay again! Super central to city centre too!
