There was no fridge in the room. I got a coupon to order from the Italian restaurant but they would not honor it because I wanted to take my food to my room. 😏 I had a long trip there and was not appropriately dressed to sit down in a restaurant.

Nicest place I’ve stayed in a long time!

I cannot wait to go back! First, parking is right next to the hotel. Second, you get an actual key on a cool gold plated key ring. The rooms are so unique. The bathroom is wonderful! The tiny balcony is adorable! Super clean! In waking distance of historic Philly, all great restaurants, and bars. Quick Uber ride to all the Philly sports. Will go there again!

Wonderful hotel. Fabulous restaurant!!

Loved this hotel. Spacious and charmingly decorated. Restaurant in the hotel was one of the best meals I’ve ever had! Couldn’t decide so I got the scallops and then eggplant parmigiana. Wow! Outstanding!! The only thing I wish is that they had blackout curtains over the window. There were beautiful shutters on my window, but the hallway light was a spotlight outside of that window all night, throwing a lot of light into the room. I would not hesitate to stay here again. And hope to be back for another meal!

The room was as described, and comfortable. The Old City area is very noisy, and the hotel is right next to the highway. The coffee bar in the morning is a joke, so we had to walk to get our tea and coffee. The hotel employees were very kind and considerate except in the restaurant where the server was shocked my partner and I only wanted to share appetizers and not have any wine or alcoholic beverages.

Great and not so great

Wierdly mixed on Penn View... FIrst the negatives. There is NO parking. None. There are pay lots nearby but are not affiliated in any way. The hotel is 100% not accessible. Neutral- no breakfast, but there is free coffee and funky little muffins. There’s also a Italian restaurant on ground floor, we didn’t try it but the menu looked interesting. Didn’t notice if it was busy or not. Good- the rooms were cute and felt like nice mix between modern and 18th century. The location is outstanding, so close to so many landmarks and tourist destinations and lots a fun places to eat.
