25.01.2022 Hello Thursday, looking forward to tonight’s dinner menu & seeing what Chef’s do with this beautiful Yarra Valley Asparagus! Dinner bookings are a great idea as we have limited indoor seating. 57721014

22.01.2022 Flashback!!!! I'm retiring a phone, and just looking through pics, before I turn it off that last time. This ones bring back great memories of one of the festival at Pizzini wines that we got to cook with our friends Scott & Al from Grant St Grocer (a month or so before we started at the Hotel), jeez they were long days but lots of laughs, thanks for the good times ... #chefslife

21.01.2022 A little DIY project for our laneway at the side of the hotel. what will it end up like? We’ll keep you posted Thanks Dad

19.01.2022 Trying to find positives of covid - catching up on accreditations and improving business practices has been one of them. Very happy to receive our Australian Quality Tourism Business Accreditation today, a mountain of work goes into this and keeping it updated, thanks to our team for all their work to make this happen. Also, we received our Ride High Country Preferred Business accreditation recently.... To other businesses that are interested, check out the Cycle accreditation at Tourism North East, to keep promoting our towns as cycle-friendly. Sing out if you have any questions. https://www.tourismnortheast.com.au//ride-high-country-pr/ Just for interest - our hotel has maps for cyclists, water bottle refills, bike workshop area and bike lockup cage for our guests. We have a couple of bikes onsite for our accommodation guests to use, and we are exploring options for bike hire. #ridehighcountry #qualitytourism

18.01.2022 Melbourne one more week until we can travel freely within the state again!! We are so looking forward to welcoming you back, and we'd like to buy you a drink to say 'Thanks Melbourne' for doing the 'hard-yards' during lockdown over recent months. You are awesome. Getaway over a weekend, or a sneeky mid-weeky (we have free wi-fi, you can even work from here for a change of scene). Book via our website or on the booking link below and stay during November (only available if you... book directly online, not via a 3rd party booking agent). Quote 'Hard-yards' in the comments of your accommodation booking and we'll have drinks waiting for you. Our Restaurant is open Thursday - Saturday for dinner, or on other evenings we can book you into other local eateries. See you soon, Cheers xx https://apac.littlehotelier.com/proper/alexandrahoteldirect

13.01.2022 What a glorious day! Fingers crossed tomorrow’s as good! Join us for lunches on the weekends in our beautiful courtyard, where else would you want to be? I can feel a pimms coming on

11.01.2022 Oh Melbourne, how we love you And how wonderful to visit you again. We ate our way around town, getting all food love & inspired. Thank you Melbourne for your wonderful hospitality - from our gorgeous little apartment, to coffee at Ormond Collective, dinners at Foglia di Fico and Bar Carolina, lunch at Entrecôte (felt like we’d had a France & Italy experience), all an absolute treat. And catching up with some dearest of friends, isn’t life grand.

11.01.2022 Well the weather is getting better, accommodation is picking up and the new normal is feeling 'normaller' (I don't think that's a word). With that, we are thinking about a new breakfast menu starting in the next week or two. Help us to write our new menu and tell us what's your favourite brekkie dish when you go out?

10.01.2022 Open From 9am weekends #weekendbaker

09.01.2022 Weekend Baker @ Alexandra Hotel open from 9am

07.01.2022 So it turns out, Mark Cordina, an awesome fella that’s been a wonderful friend & customer to Alexandra Hotel has mad-skills in metal work. This is part of a new piece he’s making for the kitchen. Chef Pat & Chef Ben have been doing a bit of char-grilling in the current menu & Mark is building them a very sexy, custom, bespoke new grill. Will post another update next week

06.01.2022 So it's been a little while between Brekkies, but we will open again this weekend. We open around 9am, and breakfast goes until 11 am'ish before heading into Lunch. Opening Hours Dinner Thursday - Saturday... Breakfast & Lunch Weekends ph) 5772 1014 or book online See more

06.01.2022 Getting to know the team - Maestro- Mix-a-Lot (Dan) When you can go to Melbourne what Bar/Restaurant will you be booking? An old favorite - Movida, and this is how I love to dine, little bits of everything, and Madame Brussels for a jug (or two) of delicious cocktails.... When you can cross borders or take a flight, where will you be heading? Imaginary holiday - Greece!!!! But realistically Byron Bay for a nice ocean break or maybe call it ‘research’ for cocktail inspiration. How did you end up here in Alexandra? After selling my restaurant in Mornington Peninsula I needed a change for a few months, so arrived in sunny Alexandra and that was 10 years ago. What’s the back story? How did you end up in Industry & where has it taken you? After living abroad for two years, returned to live in the big smoke of Melbourne, I worked in the clothing industry for 3 years and then fell into hospitality by means of waiting at a restaurant I loved across the road in Hawksburn. After 8 years there, moved home to Red Hill where I managed Red Hill Estate Restaurant ‘Maxs’ for 8 years before partnering with Max in ‘Solair’ restaurant at Arthurs Seat for 4 years. What’s your fav pantry or fridge ingredient & why? Sour cream and an array of condiments, depending on the mood, and eggs (is it possible to live without them? How do people not like eggs, I don’t understand.). Oh, and Tonic

04.01.2022 What makes your day on a rainy one? How about some CWA scones & receiving beautiful home grown roses - thanks Meg Webster for the flowers xx We are selling scones at the weekend Baker - date or plain with jam & cream

04.01.2022 Thank you to our Melbourne Customers, that along with us, where hopeful that the travel restrictions might be lifted. We have had accommodation bookings in our system, holding onto the hope of a weekend away to look forward to. And you have all been so prompt to cancel when ‘Sunday announcements’ occur and the realisation that you won’t be able to travel just yet happens. Thank you for doing what you’re doing. We have everything crossed that travel restrictions will ease, ...and we’ll get to welcome you soon. Sending love & support to our Melbourne community, we miss you. Jackie, Pat, Tania, Dan & Kat @ Alexandra Hotel

04.01.2022 This was a lovely surprise article in this week's Financial Review. A great article for our fantastic Green Tea producer Two Rivers Green Tea here in Acheron. A nice collaborative piece about some of our local businesses - Two Rivers Green Tea, Grant St Grocer & Alexandra Hotel.

03.01.2022 Hey gorgeous folks, it's so exciting to be out and about again, and it's kind of like we hit the pause button earlier in the year, and all of a sudden Christmas is around the corner and we are catching up and celebrating life with friends. We are booked out for Dinner Friday & Saturday nights this weekend, but we have tables available tonight (Thursday) and over the weekend for lunch or breakfast. If you've got a date in mind to catch up with friends, we'd suggest booking a ...week or two before. At this stage, we are only able to take groups up to 10 people, but hopefully, that will change over the coming weeks. Stay well, stay safe & we look forward to seeing you soon. nb did I mention we have a booking app, and we're loving it, you can even click on the link here on FB xx

03.01.2022 Can you ‘taste the freedom’? Maestro-Mix-A lot has made a cocktail with a nod to the weekend escape vibe going on! So lovely to see so many wonderful faces of friends Local & Melbourne based. Just sorry we couldn’t fit more of you in. Fully booked Saturday night, getting that way for Sunday also. Xx

02.01.2022 What a year it has been! It’s the week before Metro & Regional Vic opens up again, and we just wanted to pause for a moment and say THANK YOU to all the local & regional support from customers/friends/community that we’ve had over the three and a bit years, but especially since March. We wouldn’t still be here without you.... We’ll all get use too the latest ‘new normal’ and restrictions and regulations will contract & expand as required, we will keep doing our best to keep adapting as we all go through. (It is enjoyable to be putting food on plates again) Sending big hugs & really THANK YOU
