The location of the hotel is fantastic - heart of historical district, block from Independence Hall - across the street from American Rev. War Museum. Walkable to so many restaurants and sites. Hotel breakfast was great - plenty of options to fuel up. Hotel parking is a block away - no problem. Would stay here again if in the Philadelphia area.

Great location near Independence Mall. You park your car in a parking garage a couple of blocks from the hotel, which requires a key card from the front desk. Staff is super accommodating about letting you hang onto the card after you check out if you’re sightseeing!
