Top Center City East Hotel Reviews

The Windsor Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Pretty much just used the hotel to sleep but the rooms were super cute and cozy. Good walking distance from a lot of places. We spent only one night here and spent a LOT of time in the Irish pub/restaurant connected and the apps were delicious, the vibe was amazing and the beer was delicious."

Wyndham Philadelphia Historic District

8/10 Good

"Convenient, walking distance to historic Philadelphia. Room was clean and well maintained. The light in the bathroom made it difficult to see in the mirror. Would definitely recommend a different type of light. Did not offer free breakfast. Restaurant served breakfast and it was ok but pricey. Parking was very convenient. Staff were very friendly and helpful."

Philadelphia Marriott Downtown

8/10 Good

"In general, the hotel was great - it's a great location, the rooms were comfortable, and the amenities were spectacular. Having complimentary streaming services available on the in-room televisions were a first for me and very impressive. The main reason I'm withholding a star is that during check-in, there was a large line of guests waiting to check in and there was not enough staff available to attend to everyone. It was surprising to see a downtown hotel in a major city only have 2 attendants working."
