Great hotel, positioned right in Kos town so close to all, in a pleasant spot. The staff were excellent and the place was clean too. Definitely a good choice. Breakfast was basic, the usual but did the job. You really can't go wrong staying here.
The room was wide and clean with good airconditioner. There was a large variety of International TV channels. The hotel itself situated in calm area not far away from Venice, with a tram station nearby. The parking was free The staff has a limited command of English. Breakfasts were limited. Reception did not sell tickets for public transport.
Stayed here for one night during my Europe tour. Average accommodation and location, room was clean and comfortable. Dining and meals were ok. Room access was with a physical key which I thought was rather quaint as you don't come across these too often as most hotels now use access cards. Turns out this is quite common, particularly in Europe where a lot of the hotels are quite old.
We stayed at Hotel Alexander for three nights before moving onto Venice. The hotel decor is a little dated but the room was clean and tidy and the reception staff helpful and welcoming. There is a fridge in the room which is useful and you can refill water bottles from the tap water in the bathroom. Air conditioning was good. The shower is an over bath shower and was not good at staying in the bath so the floor tended to flood! We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis and breakfast was a good selection of continental with scrambled egg and ham as well. The staff even provided us with a plate of pastries after we came down late one day, believing that breakfast was until 11,not 10. There is a bus stop not far from the hotel that will take you to Mestre train station from where we went to Verona. There are several restaurants nearby and a supermarket for hotel room picnics.
We went on our Europe Tour 2016 in November, all was very nice, the rooms where clean, small but very cozy. All services where available such as free wifi and we get the breakfast and was really tasteful. I will definitively recommend Alexander Hotel.
Stayed here for 2 nights and can't fault the place, room was very spacious, nice big bathroom with a bath too which is nice after a day of exploring Venice, staff very friendly and helpful on how to get over to Venice, very clean, great air conditioning and breakfast was delicious, quite a good selection, would definitely recommend it if you want somewhere reasonably priced and with secure underground parking this is the place.
Put up for 1 night here as the Ambassadori had problems. So its very close the tram stop with great staff and a fine breakfast buffet. Rooms were small but very comfortable. They staff couldn't do enough for us. Will stay there again.
This was the best hotel I stayed at during my time visiting Italy and by far my favorite. Very simple and easy to get to. There are local good restaurants nearby and great breakfast in the mornings. Couldn't say enough that this was by far the best, parking on site as well and as fore mentioned very close to Venice just a train ride away.
Pretty far away from public transport, really dark and gloomy place. The rooms are so tiny! The included breakfast was very poor condition of food. Wifi had terrible coverage throughout the hotel. And the bathroom's shower couldn't keep pressure or temperature. Went really hot, or really really cold.
Stayed in this hotel for three nights during my trip to Venice and liked everything about it. Even though it is not in Venice proper (as in on the island itself), it is very convenient to travel there by bus or the tram in approx 15 mins. The tram is a good option that runs every 10 minutes up to midnight and the station is less than 5 minutes from the hotel. Buy tickets from the Tobbaco shop near the station. Very spacious rooms (which is rare for Europe), clean and comfortable. Bathroom was upgraded with a nice tub. The hotel staff were friendly and provided information on traveling to Venice and Padova. Good Italian breakfast with pastries, coffee, fruits, meats, jams and cheese. The hotel was a 6 minutes taxi ride from Venice-Mestre train station and there are buses available too, that stop less than a block away from the hotel. To go the airport, the bus stops near the hotel and you can buy tickets at the reception desk. There is a small bar in the lobby area yo buy a drink or coffee if you want to. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here and recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable and convenient place to stay without burning a hole in your pocket while visiting Venice. A few restaurants are available nearby including an Indian one. Personally, I would rather stay in Mestre and travel to Venice to make my stay more comfortable. It is not expensive and it will save you the trouble of storing your luggage at the train station/airport or hauling it to you hotel in Venice.
