8.2/10 Very Good! (2,350 reviews)
Positives for the Hampton Inn Philadelphia Center City-Convention Center were -
The staff are all very pleasant and helpful.
Breakfast food is of a very good standard.
The location of the hotel, makes it very walkable to all attractions, during daylight hours.
The negatives were -
Our room, (although having 2 x comfortable queen beds) had very little storage and only one chair. So not a lot of room for two adults.
The area around the hotel, (especially after daylight) is ropey to say the least. It is a haven for homeless people and zombies on drugs.
This I think this was contributory to the area around the hotel being extremely noisy all night. Not good if you're in a front facing room, like we were. So poor sleep was had.
The soft seating chairs at the breakfast lounge are filthy and need a deep clean or replaced.
Disappointed there was no swimming pool, despite there being many images on web sites, prior to booking.
Overall, I do really expect better from a hotel in the Hilton brand, where customers are paying premium rates, really only for the location and not much else!
As the negatives out weigh the positives, I would look elsewhere in future visits to this city.
