Beautiful hotel! I was surprised at how big the room was for an older hotel. The breakfast had a varied selection and everything was fresh. Staff were super friendly.

Debbie and Gwen from hospitality were brilliant in courtesy and care of our room during our stay. The front desk staff were all informed, efficient and kind. The atrium staff handling the breakfast was so kind and on the spot for keeping tables clean and prepared for all the hotel guests. So, overall, the people at this hotel really make the experience a step above the others we stayed at in the area of Old City. Some of the building features are old, being a historic hotel, but no seeming fan presence in the room bathroom was easy to overlook with everything else being seemless.

The hotel was as described on the website. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was clean, comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed. Breakfast offerings were good and plentiful. The hotel’s location was great and we walked to everything. We would stay here again.

Cons: Took an hour and 30 minutes before I was able to get keys to my room, the parking pass they gave me did not work. Pros: the room was clean and comfy, the breakfast had good options, the area around it is very nice and convenient. Would stay there again.

I had a few issues with the front desk- you advertise cookies, and he did open a tin, and put them out, but at the cost, they definitely could have been better. Also the people working there, couldn’t answer any questions. They should be better versed in the area.

Daily Breakfast-included variety of drinks, pastries, breads, fruits, cereal,yogurt with toppings , waffle maker, and main entre was consistent daily. Great Breakfast!

It's my home away from home. I usually go there for business, but it is also perfect for finding a place where you watch the Eagles on a big screen with a crowd of well behaved fans.

Definitely a wonderful place to stay. Super nice staff and rooms. Walking distance to so much and bed was super comfy. Loved our stay.
1-night trip

10/10

My anniversary is on Valentine's Day, which, this year was a long weekend with President's Day on Monday. The location of this hotel was perfect for a winter weekend trip to Philadelphia -- we loved being across from the American Revolutionary Museum, cookie hour, hot chocolate and warm inviting atmosphere at Independence Park Hotel. Great breakfast buffet with friendly staff. Would definitely stay again.
3-night trip

The staff beginning with Craig provided a warm welcome. The other team members were always ready to engage in conversation and were helpful. The location is great and made it easy to walk and explore the Old City.
2-night trip

4/10

1.Room sizes are very small ( 7 x 10ft). The space was less than any standard den size room. Barely fit the queen bed. It’s look like a confined space. 2. Hotel doesn’t have own car parking space and the nearest public car parking is 5 minutes away ( walk) from hotel. 3. The Breakfast served in old cheap reusables plastic plates ( with visible scratches ) in a tiny lobby area.

Very nice hotel, close to some of the top sightseeing places.
