Element by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown

8/10 Good

"Good Breakfast ! Nice Hotel close to everything"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Philadelphia Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Staff had to understand that they are dealing with the public and that they need to be courteous and resilient, respectful with travelers. Only in Philadelphia. We have stayed in other Embassy Suites in other states and customer service was superb."

Extended Stay America Suites Philadelphia Airport Tinicum Bl

8/10 Good

"This place is so close to being an easy three star, yet falls short on the basics... What respectable hotel, let alone an extended stay doesn't have an ice machine for the guests? This alone, if known would have sent me somewhere else. Kitchen was great, but no coffee maker and a missing hair dryer? Front desk did as much as possible but management insists on leaving out the small stuff. One, ONE! cello wrapped plastic cup supposed to last me for three nights. Right outside the airport was super convenient but still quiet as can be, Close to rail station for fast ride to Philly, and far enough out that there's NO trouble with perma-campers and 24 hour pharmacies. Some hiccups, but for the price. I'd stay again. Grocery, take out and restaurants easily reachable."
