We had another great stay at Residence Inn Bala Cynwyd! The location was great for everything we were in town for. We love that it’s right on the river and you can walk across the bridge to restaurants. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. We appreciate that the fan runs in the room so you never hear others. We will always chose this hotel when we are in town!

Great stay!!!

The exterior is amazing to view. Lots of shaded outdoor seating and outdoor activities to enjoy. I loved the old industrial look surrounding the modern. There also a really cool walking bridge. Very family friendly and great for a business trip. Breakfast was good with a nice variety. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were very comfortable and spacious. BUT, here is something to note… the fan in the bathroom for all the rooms does NOT shut off. All you can do is close the bathroom door, it then becomes a hum and you can sleep through it. Overall, a great stay and the group I was traveling with wants to return next year.

Game room and restaurant!

This is a newer hotel - very unique and clean. Also close to the city. There is a Game room with foosball and Xbox - ask at front desk for controllers. Breakfast is great and hot water in the shower. If want a suite, the bedroom can't have King bed (only 2 queens). The ice machine on 6th floor has a water bottle filler! Overall great stay for family.

Our stay here was beautiful! Beautiful scenery with the rustic mixed with modern build and design. My room was also wonderful, spacious, with many amenities and everything worked just fine. The breakfast could have a bit more variety but it was free and the pool makes up for it. Restaurants, walkable paths, free parking, complimentary wine for the birthday visit(although they forgot it at first after I called) but nonetheless we received it and all was well
