  • This was the cutest boutique hotel! The staff was so friendly every time we walked by, often opening the front door for us as we came and went. The location was actually perfect, close to downtown and restaurants by car and the private beach was such a treat! There were fresh chocolate chip cookies every night at 7 pm and a nice coffee and tea selection. It rained one of the days we stayed here but there were umbrellas we could use in the lobby. It’s truly the little things that can make or break a stay and Alexandra Inn got it so right with every little thing! It was the cleanest hotel we’ve ever stayed at. My husband and I went for our honeymoon and we already can’t wait to come back!

  • We loved our stay! Definitely check out the rooftop lounge and restaurant, especially for Monday evening music! The staff were super attentive, too!

    Review from Kelli (July 2024)

  • Loved our stay at the Alexandra Inn! Very clean, comfortable, and the extra foyer/vestibule area separating the rooms from the hallway help keep it extra quiet! Highly recommend.

    Review from Lesley (October 2023)

  • Impeccably detailed, from decoration to service, definitely a beautiful beachside stay. Staff always available 24 hours is so nice and with a rooftop terrace views couldn't be better. Steps away from the sand, easy access to the preferred of the two Bays in Traverse City, the coveted East Bay sand beaches were amazing.

    Review from Brenda (October 2023)

  • From the first moment we entered the hotel we had a great experience. The hotel is immaculate and comfortable throughout. The rooftop bar and restaurant staff go above and beyond to provide excellent service. We look forward to staying here again!

    Review from Mary (October 2023)

  • The property is beautiful! It is decorated so cute! The staff was so kind and helpful. They had amazing coffee and treated us like we were family. I loved the private beach and the fact that they had beach towels and chairs. The chocolate chip cookies were awesome too!
