This is the hidden gem that you want to keep to yourself, but you just cant. It has everything, charm, cleanliness, convenient parking (add'l fee) and walkable to ferry. Although please note, there is a lot of roadwork that has easily tripled the walk to ferry. The Panaorama restaurant is attached and serves wonderful Italian Food. You also get a 25%off coupon for staying and dining there. It is our go to spot for concerts at Freedom Mortgage Pavilion. It is what i consider a boutique hotel. Very clean and staff is top notch.

We will gladly stay there again.

This is a wonderful period correct boutique hotel. With an excellent restaurant attached to it. The room was very clean, very comfortable, and the staff was very accommodating and friendly. While the elevator was a bit slow, it seemed to be fitting of a period hotel situated, ideally, in the old section of Philadelphia, with convenient walking distance access to Penn's Landing, the ferry to New Jersey and many of the cultural and historic attractions in that part of the city

First, I paid for a room with a Queen-sized bed. Instead, I was given a room with a smaller, standard-sized double bed. Second, this property is in need of upgrade. For example, the room air conditioner had two settings. "Off". . . which rendered the room hot and stuffy. "On". . . which rendered to room shiveringly frigid. The cold air blew forcefully onto the bed making it hard to sleep.

I feel like I found a hidden gem. The hotel has an old-fashioned charm to it (right down to having a physical key instead of a keycard) that fits in well with the historic Philly area. The room was spacious and clean and updated. The staff was helpful, referring us to a great restaurant. We did not eat at the on-site restaurant but went there for a drink afterwards. The wine selection was amazing (a Guiness World Record for largest winekeeper!) and the bartender was fantastic. A welcome place to stay if you're looking to avoid a chain hotel.
