Top Center City East Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Philadelphia - Penns Landing by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel in an excellent location."

Motto by Hilton Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square

10/10 Excellent

"This is the second time I have stayed at the Moto. The staff is friendly, helpful and available. My room was very clean with sufficient amenities. As we are in the inner city, the morning noise outside is more than I am accustomed in my neighborhood, but it is not overwhelming. Happy hour at the bar was extended to the dinner time for me and the food, Mexican style was great. I would always stay at the Moto when I am downtown Philadelphia."

Home2 Suites by Hilton Philadelphia - Convention Center, PA

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent Home 2 Suites by Hilton Hotel. Conveniently located within walking distance to Chinatown, Philadelphia City Hall and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. The hotel sits across from Reading Terminal Market and next to the Philadelphia Convention Center. The rooms are very clean and tidy. Really comfortable beds."

Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia

8/10 Good

"We liked the location of the hotel. The parking and unloading situation is very inconvenient. I didn’t receive anything beforehand to know you had to unload on a different street from the front door on Chestnut St. I asked for queen bed; I had two twin beds in room!"

Hampton Inn Philadelphia Center City-Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay. The staff members quickly resolved any issues we had. We liked the central location and the free breakfast. The only minor (very minor) issue is that we only had one small garbage can in our room. We would stay here again."
