“This is a very nice, clean hotel with a fantastic location in center city Philly. As a place to stay, there is nothing to complain about. They have a great breakfast buffet and nice casual restaurant as well. There are only a few negatives to this hotel. 1) There is no free internet access in the rooms. You have to pay $9.95/day for wired high-speed access. There is free WiFi in the lobby, but it stinks having to head down there with your laptop to check email. In this day and age, there should be free WiFi throughout the hotel. 2) Printing in the business center is ridiculous. It costs $1 per page for black and white printing. I don't see how Doubletree can charge that much when their sister property - Hilton Garden Inn - has free printing. Hilton Garden Inn also has free in-room WiFi. 3) While I did not smell any smoke in my non-smoking room/floor, they still do allow smoking on certain floors. There is no excuse for that in this day and age. Should be a completely non-smoking hotel like most places. However, when all is said and done, would I stay there again?”

“This hotel was at a great location. Right smack in the middle of Center City Philadelphia. The room was big and very comfortable and clean. Just cant beat it.”

“We were given a smoking room and I did not want a smoking room. We asked to change and the only room they had available was a room by the elevators. It was very small and we had to rent a cot, to fit all the travelers in the room.”

“The hotel is old, and the elevator is old. And my room is right next to the elevator. You have the picture. Every time the elevator was in use, there was the screeching noise. For a big hotel (26 story tall), the elevator is always in use. Obviously, no one else would want a noisy room; I was stuck with it for two nights.”

“I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. We felt welcomed each time we came in and out of the hotel. After I made my reservations I called and made sure that everything went through and they had booked me a Smoking room. If I not have called, like most people, that would have not been ok with me being a non-smoker! Other wise I believe the hotel I stayed at are very nice!”

“Excellent location, good gym, overpriced breakfast buffet, was given a room on the lowest floor (6) which is the smoking floor. I don't smoke and asked for another room, but they claimed they didn't have any. Anyway, the entire floor reeked of cigarette smoke, awful for a non-smoker.”

“This hotel is in the theater district and not far from historical areas and museums. If you get a view overlooking Broad Street--you have the old City Hall to look at every night and it is beautifully lit. Staff was efficient and friendly. The pool and gym were small, clean, and enjoyable. The first room had a yellow ceiling and stunk. In fact, the whole floor stunk as soon as you exited the elevator. Desk staff was friendly and changed us to a non-smoking room that more than met expectations. The bedding is very comfortable.”

“Hotel is in a great location. A little "outdated" (low vanity and toilet, outdated HVAC system, etc.) but overall was a very good experience.”

“Great location, food in restaurant is moderate, ok for business travelers, elevators can be heard running distinctly from inside of some rooms, night and day. Front desk staff gave me some difficulty in checking in. I had to wait for my "husband" in order to check in even though room was totally paid for. We were only given a queen size bed, but we really needed a king. We would not stay again at this hotel. There are too many other fine ones in the area.”

“I requested a king size bed and I got a queen. They did not reserve what I wanted they gave my room to someone else. I was stuck in a small queen size bed which made it uncomfortable for us.”
