“Elegant and Kid-Friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 30, 2013

This hotel is really unusual because it offers elegant surroundings in a perfect location combined with a genuinely child-friendly environment. Everyone from the concierge to the doorman went out of their way to make our party, composed of grandma, mom and two kids, feel comfortable and welcome. The rooms were tastefully decorated and spacious with views of the park and every possible amenity, including homey touches like complimentary milk and cookies at bedtime for the children. With Indpendence Hall and the Liberty Bell a block away, who could wish for more.

“Decent but not great”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 30, 2013

I stayed this past weekend and was warned in advance that the spa and pool were under construction but the gym was still usable. The gym seems like it was a little neglected (no towls, no way to clean off machines) during the construction but it was a nice gym. The rooms are large and comfortable and it's a great location. The valet guys were nice although they forgot that we had called down for our car making us a little late when we were leaving. Having stayed at the newly renovated Kimpton next door in November and the Omni in January, I'd go back to the Kimpton.

“You won't be disappointed with property, the service is great”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

Stayed here for one night and enjoyed a lot of special treatment from a hospitality manager named Christine. I have to say that after letting them know about an event for which I was in town with a younger family member, they made us feel very familiar and warm.

The pool and work out facilities are under construction and you will not see that listed anywhere, so if you expect to use those facilities - ask if its open.

Otherwise, the room had a great view of the birthplace of our nation but the noise does carry up from the street below. The bed is very comfy and the room was very dark and generally quiet.

You will not be disappointed with the location, the service and the overall upkeep of the room if you stay here. A fine value.

“my first visit to philadelphia- it was good”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 25, 2013

from the moment of arrival to departure, we felt special. the location is fantastic! walking distance to all things 'historical'. it is only 2 blocks from the liberty bell exhibit. nor is it a far walk from the famous restaurant row aka south street.
this hotel has definitely been added to the 'do it again' list. i enjoyed all the perks of being a select guest member for sure. i think my stay would have been just as enjoyable had i not as i have stayed at their jacksonville property as well years ago.
this visit i enjoyed a corner room with the most vibrant view. it almost felt 360. i could see penn's landing and more. the bed was so comfy. after walking around for hours i really needed a soft landing! lol i appreciated having the bose clock/radio. there was a bit of staining in the bathroom tub. however that didn't take away from the experience. plus i don't know how they did this: heated towels (maybe it was the steam)! it was heavenly!!! go stay you'll enjoy. the brunch was very tasty with many stations offering hot and cold dishes including complimentary specialty beverages. the staff was extremely friendly and helpful . it felt very genuine. you wont regret your time here.
