Above average but overpriced. The valet parking blocking the entrance with parked cars was very unwelcoming.

Everything about this hotel was great.. excellent bedding too!

Beautiful hotel close to everything

Not only is the property in a prime area for shopping and dining, but the staff is absolutely above par. They treat guests as their number one priority.

The staff were extremely friendly & helpful. The rooms are large, clean & stylish.

Wonderful place to stay with great staff. We would come back in a heartbeat.

Comfortable and located in the heart of Philadelphia. Worth staying at.

This is my absolute favorite place to stay whenever I am in Philly. Hands down the best night sleep ever!!! The rooms are always clean and it's just always a great experience.

I stayed here nearly 15 years ago and thought this place was great, but over a decade later it seems less impressive. The main entrance is really unattractive and has no curb appeal. The room I stayed in was nice, but not super clean. It could use a proper deep cleaning to get the edges clean, like baseboards, corners of showers, etc. I probably wouldn't stay here again.

They gave us room which was already used by other people. There were garbage, used glasses, empty bottles, etc. The hotel then changed the room and told us they upgraded our room. We walked in to the new room after spending extra 15 minutes because the lobby was packed with event and had to wait for elevators, the room was exact same as the original preoccupied room we had.
