BlackBook "The Alexander combines just the right amount of laissez-faire attitude and professionalism."
Fodor's "The well maintained rooms at this small hotel have an Art Deco feel." Full review

Star Service "Regular updating and a service-oriented staff keep this hotel's reputation primed for above average expectations, but this is a Sheraton, so don't expect luxury." Full review
