Great location

Great location, many good restaurant all in walking distance. Located right down the block from Independece Hall. Rooms were clean, and front desk staff very helpful. They recomended a great restaurant. My only complaint was at 2 a.m, the bars let out and it was very noisy on the street. Maybe having a room on a higher florr would help.

Do not overlook the Omni

Went to Philadelphia for a graduation; my stay was very brief, but in those brief moments I immediately recognized why Omni Hotels has ranked the "Highest in Guest Satisfaction among Upscale Hotel Chains" by J.D. Power and Associates", more than once. Hotel room very clean and roomy. Beds are fantastic, best sleep I've had in a long time. The location is perfect, a short walk to the Liberty Bell. I do however, recommend Valet Parking (worth the expense). If you have to go out, the Omni will get you a taxi (not expensive from hotel to Center City). Do not overlook this hotel.
