Great place to stay!
What a wonderful hotel! Clean, friendly and convenient. Spent a long weekend in Philadelphia with friends and this hotel was perfect. Walking distance to Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell but also plenty of great places to eat and relax.

Location was great. All the staff I interacted with were lovely and helpful. I loved the lobby with hot chocolate and a warm, inviting fireplace, and the stairs up from the lobby. Felt very cozy, private and safe.

Will definitely be coming back!
I don’t leave reviews for a lot of hotels, but I felt like I needed to leave one — this hotel did NOT disappoint!!! Came for my sons birthday weekend and we were so happy from after checking in till we left. One minor thing is that they don’t have the tall trolleys, only the small ones like the ones you lift boxes with. After figuring out how to put our luggage on there it was no biggie. Might consider bringing duffles instead but nonetheless we LOVES our experience here. Breakfast was A1 as well!

Amazing stay!
Perfect place for our family to stay! Breakfasts were delicious with lots of variety, beds very comfortable, rooms were very clean (as well as the lobby & breakfast room), mostly quiet, except for last night when a large group were making noise in the hallway at 4am. We have nothing bad to say about our wonderful stay here for 3 nights! Ohh & right across the street from the incredible American Revolution Museum & lots of great restaurants nearby. Only a few short blocks from Independence Hall & the Liberty Bell. Amazing trip, made better by this hotel & location!
