The hotel was very well located for public transport and dining options/ supermarket - the staff were friendly - there was a useful fridge in the room. Although there was no air con, fans were provided which worked well in the heat.

The hotel is in a great area near a tram stop. The restaurant has interesting Ukrainian cuisine, for dining indoors or out. There are several other restaurants very close. The staff was professional, if not especially friendly. There is no front desk staff available overnight.

I had failed to note that Hotel Alexander does not have air conditioning, and it was very, very hot. Mid 90s Fahrenheit (low 30s Celsius). So we were not comfortable, but in all other respects, this hotel was wonderful. The staff were all helpful, kind, and professional. The tram stop was a 2 minute walk. The free breakfast was hot and delicious. The WiFi worked. The room was spacious for European hotel rooms, and we loved the large balcony patio. Great for a family of 4.

My review would have been much better had I not been charge way more than the price I booked it at through Expedia. The price when we booked was about $220 Canadian dollars. We chose to pay when we arrived. However when we got there we were charged over $600! I can understand that it was because EuroVision was taking place. Maybe it’s Expedia’s fault and I shouldnt be making this the hotels fault. In any event. The room was clean. It’s in a good location.
