Top Smith Memorial Arch Hotel Reviews

Element by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, breakfast was good!"

Sofitel Philadelphia at Rittenhouse Square

10/10 Excellent

"I loved everything about it except the temperature of the lobby/bar. We were so cold eating lunch that we almost didn't enjoy the food. I don't know why hotels waste electricity putting their guests in a meat freezer."

Motto by Hilton Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square

8/10 Good

"Ended up in bunk bed room unless I wanted to take lower floor; dark room. In general, rooms are very small and many of them face walls or dark alleyway. Good location, great staff and nice vibe. Shower was excellent."

Patio Paradise Central City 2BR Philly

8/10 Good

"It wasn't apparent from the photos, but this unit was partially in the basement of the building, which was great at night, we didn't hear anything coming from outside, but the kitchen and common area had no windows so it's a little dark. There is no Kitchen table or common area with a TV, couch, etc. If you're not planning on cooking for yourself, it's probably fine. Beds were comfortable, and each room had it's own bathroom with a shower. Everything seemed pretty clean. It's bare-bones, but comfortable enough. I was concerned about parking, but had no issues getting a spot at the end of the night."

Homewood Suites by Hilton University City

10/10 Excellent

"Staff are very kind caring thoughtful"

Modern Studio Walk to UPenn Univ &Hosp & Drexel. Ideal for travel professionals

10/10 Excellent

"My partner and I loved staying at this VRBO. I surprised him with a trip for the weekend for his birthday and it was perfect for what we needed ! The only thing that was frustrating was the parking situation as there is only 2 hour parking outside of this place and we did end up getting a ticket as we slept in past the two hour mark for Saturday morning, the parking is only 2 hours from 8-6 Mon-Sat, so in the future we would look for different parking that would have to be further away from the actual place. This is completely out of Akia’s control, so no fault to her, just a note I thought I should share for future renters! Thank you for everything Akia! We will definitely consider this property for future stays!"

BrotherlyLove—Charming 2-bedroom house with WiFi, AC in lovely Philadelphia

10/10 Excellent

"Nice clean place made for a pleasant stay! It had enough room and amenities for what we needed. It was in a rough inner city neighborhood but the place was very nice. However we tried using the oven a couple times and it didn’t reach a temp over 200 degrees. The stove was nice and used it with no issues and we were able to cook. The front steps need a hand rail as we had some trouble getting up and down the stairs. But other than that we loved it and was perfect for what we needed with our 2 kids. Parking was a little difficult with it being only street parking but we managed to get a spot not too far away."
