Top Southwest Philadelphia Hotel Reviews

Philadelphia Marriott Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"From check-in to check out, the state of this property was amazing. Staff was both helpful eligible, friendly and engaging valet was convenient. It’s in the center of Phil walkable to all the historical sites. One block from Reading market. The entire experience was amazing."

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Philadelphia Airport

2/10 Terrible

"Our experience was horrible, starting with the shuttle driver who picked us up from airport he was so rude, violent driver who almost hit a car on the way to the hotel and smelled like mariguana. Once we arrived at the hotel the check in staff was so unorganized, rude and upset because we arrived later in the night. He was refusing to give us our room even though we paid ahead of time for our stay. We didn’t want to stay, but was so late and we were so tired from traveling we didn’t know what else to do. We only stayed for 4 hours and left. The motel is very sketchy, it’s very concerning it had a bunch of women pictures on the wall of the office. We felt very unsafe, while sleeping husband heard someone trying to open our room door but thankfully we had the extra lock on. The whole hotel smells terrible a mix of dirty and smoke even though it’s a smoke free place. Everything is old and rundown. Our room smelled, had many cracks all over the ceiling, and the floor felt like it was going to collapse. The ac didn’t work properly. No breakfast only coffee and donuts. Worst experience ever, don’t be confused like us by the “good reviews “ on Expedia, they have to be fake."

Sofitel Philadelphia at Rittenhouse Square

10/10 Excellent

"Had a lovely stay in a corner room at the Sofitel (in the room type dubbed “magnifique”). The room felt luxurious, spacious, and quiet. Lots of nice touches like mini-turndown while we were out, some tasty treats left on our nightstand, plush bath towels. The restobar by thr lobby is great — nice wine selection, excellent cocktails and great food (I recommend the ratatouille!). The location can’t be beat and the service and overall hotel experience were superb, without paying an exorbitant rate. Would definitely stay again and try the bistro and more of the restobar menu!"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Philadelphia Airport

8/10 Good

"We have stayed at this Embassy Suites often. It must be a lower grade for the chain. It seems a little worn and the outside certainly could use help. The rooms are quiet and the breakfast is good though they should have more help with the cooking. That poor employee trying to serve so many at one time. What happened with the evening snacks with the drinks?"
