Homewood Suites by Hilton University City

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Very clean."

Hilton Garden Inn Philadelphia Center City

10/10 Excellent

"Overall, the experience was perfect for my family and me. We booked a Junior Suite since we were a party of four adults. The queen beds were comfortable, the room was very spacious, and there was an additional sofa bed. Housekeeping is not provided daily, but the staff were available in the hallways, and they were happy to bring extra towels or toiletries when needed. We didn’t have breakfast on-site, but I did visit the restaurant for a couple of beers, and the service was good. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a future stay!"
