The Alexandra Hotel was a hotel at what is now 25–27 Knightsbridge, London.
It was originally the Wallace Hotel, and opened in 1858 on the site of what had been a pub, the White Horse, and soon acquired two adjoining houses to allow expansion. It was bought in 1863, by the Alexandra Hotel Company Limited, formed specifically for that purpose, and the much-enlarged and remodelled 'opulent' hotel, probably designed by the architect Francis E. H. Fowler, opened in 1864.[1][2]

One of those killed was Marjorie Stewart Butler one of the crew of one of the first ambulances on the scene. Butler entered the damaged building to help casualties, but part of the building collapsed on her and she later died of her injuries.[3]
