Kimpton Hotel Monaco Philadelphia by IHG
Room is okay. No coffee maker and small bottle of water 8 dollars. Limited options nearby to eat. Isolated area but good if interested in going to Independence Hall. I usually stay in Rittenhouse Square which is far better for a stay in Philly for a weekend

Penn's View Hotel
Was pleased room looked just like I had booked. For price the room was bigger and more authentic than if we had booked a little closer to independence hall. Not far by any means though…maybe another 5 min walk. Fireplace didn’t work but was more just curious to turn it on, wasn’t a big deal but appropriately ...

Independence Park Hotel, BW Premier Collection
Location was good - close to historic sites. Had an issue with the check in. My Expedia reservation said check in was at 3:00 pm. The person at reception said that was incorrect and check in was 4:00 pm. But, if I paid $10.00, I could get into a room. Seems like a scam.

Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia
Everything was great as usual but the first morning the maid just barged in to our room at 830 in the morning and found us in a state of undress. Was not happy about that.
