Pleasant Surprise

After one night in a "Queen" (felt like a Full) size bed at The Benjamin, we were anxious to find a hotel with a King size bed! The Alex was only 6 blocks away, still in Midtown, and we were able to walk over there. The Alex is new and modern but very comfortable. Our room was decent size especially for New York and we had a very comfortable King size bed!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Take advantage of your Concierge! Ask them to get you on the list at a hot club or recommend a great place for dinner!

Great Hotel

Was very impressed. The Alex was already recommended to me by a good source, so I knew I would get first class quality. Thanks and cannot wait to go back!
