We are 100 metres from Leura Railway Station and at our front door a bus stop that takes visitors to all the local attractions. There are 2 golf courses close by, Leura Mall is within easy walking distance, with many wonderful and quaint shops. Among the greatly variety of shopping opportunities there are fashion shops, both stylish and alternative, antique and furniture stores, gifts and jewellery, stationery, chocolates, as well as art works and collectables from well known artists to list just a few.
Completed in 1903, the naming of this historic hotel at 62 Great Western Highway reflects the contemporary popularity of King Edward VIIs wife, Queen Alexandra, in the years immediately following Queen Victorias death. It was built on land offering fine views over the Leura Gap by a Mr Kensett who aspired to the construction of a first class residential hotel.
The spacious and gracious design was executed by local architect F.C. Goyder, His design was an adaptation of the Queen Anne style with a 26-metre front balcony offering excellent views, 22 bedrooms with electric service bells, three bathrooms offering hot water, a large dining room, smoking room, recreation room, drawing room, fine interior arches and an admirable staircase made of kauri pine. Today The Alex stands elegantly with the original features, the only licensed hotel in Leura.
