Top Hotels Near James Forten Residence in Philadelphia

"We arrived at the hotel at 5 p.m., but our room still wasn't ready for check-in. They offered us a larger room, but only for an additional cost. The rooms and bathrooms are very small. Overall, it was disappointing."

"Wanted a centrally located hotel for this trip and the Marriot Downtown fit the bill. Large, busy hotel with bar, restaurants and other amenities. Room on 19th floor was spacious and well appointed. Room service was done without having to request it, not an automatic these days. Biggest drawback was $78 a night parking fee which resulted in use of nearby garage which turned out to be much more of a hassle than it should have been."

"good bartender night of 5/8, didn’t catch his name"

"There was construction happening during the time of our stay. I cannot comment about the appearance due to that. The amenities in the kitchen were quite old and not a great experience. Being in the middle of the city was really nice to take walks and visit places quickly. We enjoyed that! All requests were handled well by the front desk."

"Great location, convenient to restaurants and shopping. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We were just there for one night so didn’t really need/take advantage of the amenities. Overall, a clean and comfortable room. Perfect for short stays."

"Very nice staff and parking attendants. Nice vintage feel"

"Staff very friendly and welcoming. The room was immaculate. Bar staff awesome!!"

"Love this hotel– it's my new go-to in Philly, and I've stayed at all the higher end spots over the years. Cheap parking on the same block, really nice rooms with a good chill artsy vibe, the attached restaurant is great and has traveler-friendly hours (aka it's open on Sunday night!)."

"Clean room. Great stay."
