Brother was in U Penn hospital...... so I stayed at Penn Tower...........Not a bad place to stay, at all....Hooked right to the hospital, so you didn't even have to walk outside if you didn't want to!! Not sure why people complained about it??? No noise what-so-ever!!! Felt safe "AT ALL TIMES"..... A little more costly than what it is worth,... More

I chose this hotel because it connects to HUP. That is the only good thing about this place! Sleep is very important to me and I did not get it here. This place is so old that the doors slam shut. Someone on my floor was in and out late into the night and they were very rude about trying... More

the convience is what was valuable to me. I've had a double mascetomy and have a problem with carring an overnight bag and purse, besides being by myself. I was with my daughter ,her husband and grandsons,they were their tonsels and adnoids out,the one is under three yrs, so he had to stay over the other went home with my... More

The penn tower hotel rooms are old and not Particularly well maintained BUT if you are there because you have someone in U Penn Hospital, or Childrens Hospital it is invaluable. Bridges connect with both hospitals and the Perelman Center for advanced medicine. You do not ever have to go outside unless you want to - which you will at... More

My husband and I stayed at Penn Tower Hotel the night before his specialist appointment since the appointment was for 8:00am and rush hour traffic getting to Philadelphia from our home is a nightmare every day. The patient rate is $145.00 per night plus tax and parking is an additional $10.00. The room was basic...beds, bathroom, tv with basic channels.... More

Stayed here while my wife had surgery at HUP. Room was huge -- largest I have stayed in for many years! Bed was comfortable; and furnishings were very satisfactory, if not plush. Television offered extensive cable choices. Bathroom amenities were nice. Downsides were absence of wifi, coffee maker (though some rooms appeared to have them), and frig; and a bathroom... More

This hotel charges $145 per night + $10 per day for parking for patients families. If you want a microwave, add $15 per night, a refrigerator, another $10 per night, IF they have them! It has two positives, one is the bridge directly to the hospital and the other (if you get the right room, we were in 1703) is... More

I was planning on staying at the hotel while my husband had brain surgery and we were both staying there the night before the surgery. The surgery was a frightening prospect and the hotel reviews I saw were just as scary as I'd be there for a week. I was pleasantly surprised. I'm glad I read the reviews and knew... More

My mother and I stayed for 3 nights when my father was having surgery. Room desperately needed to be refurbished. No cable TV, had to run water in shower 20 minutes to get hot water, rough, frayed towels, torn wallpaper and missing fixtures, not even an alarm clock provided. Must walk 3/4 mile to get to hospital. Would not recommend.
