Best Western Hotel Alexandra

Whilst it isn't the easiest hotel to get to (especially on a busy Sunday afternoon) it's worth it! Situated directly on the promenade overlooking the sea, it has wonderful views and a surprisingly good restaurant. The 'formula' menus were well thought out and the quality of both cooking and presentation exceeded our expectations. The room was comfortable and well decorated and the staff were attentive and helpful less

We stopped here for a drink while out walking. Our waitress Catherine was the rudest waitress I've ever been served by. She cleared our table, snatching cutlery etc without a word. When she brought our drinks out, these were slammed on the table - I actually thought the glass was going to break. The cappuccinos we ordered were only half full, and at a cost of 5 euro's, a full cup would have been appreciated. She did not utter a word. I would NEVER go back to this hotel for a drink. This waitress really needs to be sacked! less

We did a lot of research before booking this hotel, and it paid off. The location is perfect for a beach holiday, yet a comfortable enough walk to old town (25 mins). We had a sea view room with a balcony- it is well worth the additional charge. The rooms are dated, but comfortable. Housekeeping is amazing, our room was spotless! The restaurant is also quite good, I recommend dining at sunset, it's spectacular. We didn't take advantage of the breakfast as it was a bit expensive, and there are plenty of cafes and a grocery store withing walking distance. The parking is on-site and very convenient, although if you have a big car- good luck getting in and out of the driveway located on a one-way street that allows street parking for some insane reason. Of all the places we stayed during our travels, I think we were the most satisfied with this hotel. less

The Hotel is located right on the water. Great place to walk along the promenade to the walled city or just enjoy the beach. We had great views from our room with an outside balcony. The rooms were clean and roomy for European standards. less

This hotel has a lovely situation but is a long way from the 'Intra Muros'. A good half hours walk, or a €8 taxi ride. The promenade outside is broad and full of holiday makers enjoying themselves. As befits a 4* establishment the breakfast (€17) was excellent including egg, bacon and sausages and all the other continental varieties. The room we has (308) was very well appointed with comfortable beds, a nice bathroom with a separate loo and had a little balcony with a table and chairs and quite perfect when the sun is shining, as it was! less
