Top Philadelphia Hotel Reviews

The Windsor Suites

The Windsor Suites

8/10 Good
"Overall we had a great stay and I would consider staying again. We stayed in a 1 bedroom suite and while the room was large and clean, the sitting room only had a sofa. Our family of 4 didn’t have enough room to sit. Even the dining table only had 3 chairs. Any time we needed something it did come quickly, but was frustrating to feel like we were constantly asking for towels. Kids enjoyed the pool which had the heater turned up really high. It was perfect for the weather."
