We had an excellent stay here during Philly’s recent snow storm. While most restaurants were closed the hotel made sure to provide an option for take out dinner or ice cream. The staff was friendly and the Family Room Suite was perfect for our stay with my sister & mom. Heater worked well and loved the windows and balcony to watch the snow. Many dining and attractions within walking distance. Would definitely stay here again. Take note parking next to hotel is $37/night

We had an AMAZING STAY here during MLK weekend. Our room had a gas fireplace and balcony. Downstairs is an Italian restaurant (Panorama) and a great bar with -124 wines on tap. Look them both up! We went for a night to watch an event at Xfinity (15 min Uber). We loved it so much that we booked an extra night. Special shout out to the staff (Antonio and Robert) that greeted us. They were VERY accommodating and looked out for us. Antonio hooked us up with a really special evening once he found out it was a birthday celebration. We HIGHLY recommend staying here. Cozy, comfortable room in a fun area. Lots of bars and restaurants. Thank you for a great weekend!

We loved this hotel. It's within walking distance to many Philly highlights. The staff were great and helpful. The room was cozy and clean. Spring for the bathroom with the big jet tub; we were very glad we did and enjoyed it. Will definitely stay here again if we are in the area.

The hotel is adjacent to Interstate 95, so the noise from traffic is pretty loud. Despite the noise, the hotel is conveniently located near historic sites and attractions in Center City Philadelphia and is in Olde City, a nice area with many shops and restaurants nearby. Overall, a good value for a hotel in Philadelphia.
