The on-site restaurant and bar saved our trip. The room was stated to have a Juliette balcony which was nothing more than a shotty door standing over the parking lot that was sketchy in safety structure. Upon arrive I knew we would not be getting the “lit bridge view as we were in the second floor. Because we booked through a third party they were not willing to move the room.

I liked the concept of the different rooms. Not sure about the execution. Our room was not ready when we got there and parking was not a good experience.

The room was clean and comfortable. My room wasn’t ready at check-in The breakfast was only coffee and sugar laden muffins The freeway nearby was noisy at night. The Venetian blinds let in a lot of light. There should be block out curtains.

By all means stay here!

What a warm and welcoming hotel! Location is wonderful - we walked to Chinatown and passed a lot of historical sites. Room comfortable and quiet. Bathroom clean and water pressure great. I would definitely stay here again. Everyone at the reception desk goes out of their way from giving directions and lending chargers to asking us about our evening when we returned.

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.
