Top Riverfront Hotel Reviews

Quality Hotel Philadelphia Airport

10/10 Excellent

"…"

Comfort Inn Philadelphia International Airport West

10/10 Excellent

"I was to arrive at 4pm. Due to traffic and other conditions, I didn't get to the hotel until close to 10pm. My room is still available. That's a relief! When I got to my room on the top floor, a dog was barking across my room. Luckily, it stopped after I entered my room. The room is large and clean. The shower is clean. I brought my own soap without perfume. There are no toothbrushes nor toothpaste. Again , I have my own. Everything is pretty good. It took me a while looking for light switches. One nears the entrance, kind of hidden. The light by the bed has no markings and is the same color as its surroundings. It's a bit noisy but once the traffic dies down, it's ok. You can hear sound outside of your room when there are people talking outside in the corridor. All in all, I've enjoyed the short stay of a few hours I spent here. The airport shuttle is available every 30 minutes. You have to sign up at the counter."

Waterfront Inn PHL Airport

8/10 Good

"Quite close to airport, enjoyed sitting outside in patio and watching sunset over the river. Since office isn’t open for early flights would be nice to have a inroom coffee maker. Shuttle service is offered however no guarantees as they don’t take actual reservations for the spots needed. I left very early to insure I would get a spot. Not too noisy even on flight path. Walked to fun neighborhood place for dinner"

Homewood Suites by Hilton Wilmington Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing and river view room was lovely. It is absolutely time for them to reupholster all of the common area furniture and some of the room furniture. It was dingy and worn; and the quality of the room cleaning needs improving. There were crumbs inside the pull-out sofa, so we didn't use it. And there was no comforter for the pull out sofa. Coffee was not good. Great location. Great staff. Great view from room."
