"My absolute favorite place to stay when I’m in town !"

Courtyard by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown

The Windsor Suites

"The room was clean and the staff was super kind and helpful"

Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia

8/10 Good

"The experience in the hotel was great the free coffee, water, and toiletries were the reason that I booked this hotel again. The only slightly confusing part was the parking garage situation."

The Inn at Penn, A Hilton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent newly renovated rooms. Staff was friendly and helpful. Highly recommended."

Loews Philadelphia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome"

AKA University City

8/10 Good

"Very nice accommodation in a great location. Some minor improvements would be great, like making sure that room is ready at check in time or bathroom has soap or check out the fridge to make sure it’s not frozen pool of ice, but overall very clean and comfortable place. Obviously the greatest rooms are reserved for reservation done via website or agents other than the Expedia but still you get to stay close to nice suites even though you may not be in one. Thank you Expedia"
