It is a very beautiful hotel, and the rooms have all been modernized. I loved the decor and that each room has a "name." It felt very regal to stay there. The staff was super helpful and friendly, especially the valet service. There are a lot of sightseeing things to do nearby and restaurants as well. This section of town is somewhat hilly, and the sidewalks are a bit torn up, so be prepared with a cane or walking stick if you have difficulties walking. Also, ride share and taxis nearby to take you to other parts of town if you don't have a car with you.

Picked up my vehicle from valet upon check out only to see it was damaged. Thought that would be a safer option considering there was no street parking only to see this.

Beautiful hotel. The operation manager greeted us and was very pleasant and accommodating. Our room was gorgeous, clean, and spacious. Great linens. The staff across the board was very nice. Did not have food at attached restaurant, but did have drinks. They were okay.Appreciated the valet service as well. All and all a great experience, would definitely return.

Great place

Overall this is an excellent Hotel, the folks here are very nice. The Valet was great, not sure his name but he was great. Although in the morning, we were going to get breakfast, but because they closed in 20 minutes that sounded like a problem. Not usually the kind of person that gets mad about that, and overall it wasn't bad but just not a good look for a classy place like this. I would stay here again.

Hotel has such great history and style. The staff was just great to us. The front desk people were great and in particular, the bar staff - Brian and Joe. They went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. We'll go back to the Omni Wm Penn every time we're in the 'Burgh.

Stay was fine but a few delays.

Staff was very nice. Room was big and also clean. The room was not ready until 45 minutes after our check in time so we had to sit around in the lobby for a while. Also took over 40 minutes to get my car out of valet parking when we checked out.
