We truly enjoyed our recent three day stay while visiting Philadelphia. The hotel is perfectly situated for walking to the historic area. Located directly on the river at Penn’s Landing, the pool, restaurant, and bar all have picturesque views of the water. Our rooms were very comfortable and nicely appointed. The bathrooms were updated and spacious. Our two rooms had gorgeous views (especially at night) of the city and Ben Franklin Bridge. My only issue is that the hotel has no connecting rooms, which poses a slight problem when traveling with a family. Aside from that, the indoor pool was outstanding with ample towels and a lovely ¾ wraparound terrace. There is also a sauna and well-maintained gym with very nice amenities. We really enjoyed the happy hour at the terrace bar, which had comfy seating and relaxing water views…perfect retreat after a day of sightseeing. We found the staff to be friendly and accommodating. Housekeeping was extremely efficient and we were never short of any creature comforts. I would definitely recommend this hotel to those visiting Philadelphia. It is easy to get to, and once there you can foot it around town, hop a visitor’s bus or hail a cab. You’re in the heart of things, but the river location offers a serine escape at the end of the day.
