An old building that adds to the charm of staying close to Old Town. Great location for sightseeing, restaurants and night life within walking distance. Rooms are a little small but have high ceilings and large updated bathrooms. The front desk staff are incredibly nice and go out of their way to be helpful. They recommended great places to eat within walking distance of the hotel. With tea & cookies, and sometimes wine and cheese in the evening, as well as complimentary breakfast, it felt like we staying at a bed and breakfast, instead of a hotel! Well worth the money.

I have stayed here many times. The staff is friendly, helpful and just really pleasant. They always seem happy to see me again. The rooms are great, the location is outstanding and though the street can be a bit noisy at night, the widows have been reworked so that very little noise gets through.

A charming small hotel in the Old City section of Philadelphia. We were greeted warmly by the staff who honestly answered questions about where to eat dinner. We took their advice and were pleased. Another nice note we arrived just as the wine and cheese offerings were being concluded buy they stayed open so that we could partake. The staff provides nice touches for the comfort of their guests. We stayed once before and came back and we will do so again.

Be prepared for a small room (albeit with nice high ceilings) The main fault is the poor quality mattress and the squeaky bed.
The room featured an old small tube TV and the hotel offered limited breakfast selections (the breakfast area blares a noisy radio! )

In any other location this is a $60 room, but this excellent location jacked the price to $200 +

The next time i'm in the Old City I'll be searching out another hotel. The Independence Park is ONE AND DONE.
