The hotel is on the edge of downtown but good location for walking to downtown and other hotels. Right across from the convention center and Reading Market which is nice. Close to Chinatown if that is important to you. They have valet parking for $24 but you can park in a lot across the street for $20 which is easier... More

Located near Chinatown for those who like Chinese food, easy to navigate into the city by foot. Not far from the train station, cost about $9 in a cab. We had a queen bed which was nice and comfortable, all facilities were modern. We didn't use thd gym but it was a good size with modern equipment in it. The... More

I booked this hotel online, prepaid, received a confirmation number, and another confirming e-mail reminding me of my stay. Due to a reported computer glitch, the hotel was badly overbooked. I received a phone call from the hotel the week prior and was told I was being relocated to their airport location. Not good since I booked this hotel due... More

Old furniture, loud elevator you could hear from the rooms, small rooms, mixed bag of front desk staff, uncomfortable bed. Need I say more?

We elected to stay at the Four Points because of its' proximity to a wedding reception location in Chinatown as well as their affiliation with Starwood. While we were impressed with the interiors of the newly refurbished hotel [great modern aesthetic and VERY clean] and the genuinely kind, well-trained staff...our experience there was dampened by the high noise level as...

I was completely happy with the room, very clean and comfortable beds, nice bathroom with a mirror and lighting that makes you look prettier, so you feel great when you go out! ;-) Four points is a little fancier than I'm used to (and pricier) but for downtown philly I'm sure it's a good value. I had requested early check... More

I stayed here recently when I was in town on business. The staff was friendly and welcoming and in general the hotel was clean and served its purpose well. The room was a bit tight as the "desk" pulled out from the entertainment/wardrobe wall unit and basically hit the bed. The bathroom was spacious and had plenty of counter space... More

Four Points by Sheraton in Center City Philadelphia is located just blocks from the historic district and right next to the convention center. We had two rooms for the weekend. Both rooms were clean and neat. Beds are very comfortable. We faced the street, with a great view. Some have complained in other reviews of noise, but we found that... More

We stayed this weekend at this hotel. The room was clean not so spacious though. The bathroom was clean and modern, had a great shower. They have a restaurant down stairs which was good for a quick drink. If you forget anything , the front desk has items for purchase. It is a bit ridiculous in price-$2 for a disposable... More
