Aloft Hotels in Philadelphia

The location is awesome. Easy to get to and from the major attraction in the city. i was there for the Penn Relays and it was a great, easy scenic 1.5 mile walk to and from each day. Got my exercise while seeing the city from on foot. Best of all on my walks this was how i decided where I would eat breakfast and dinner. So I was able to try something different each day. i was a little tempted to try Ruth Chris but I did not :(. The train ride to and from the airport was quick, easy directions to follow and though not the most scenic ride on the train, seeing the steel and stuff looks industrial America. I likes!! I did try one of the take out Chinese food spots ..oh man.. that was colorful to say the least...Bring Your Own Bag!! What an experience that was.. I guess its a city thing. The room was nice. I got real comfy real fast. The bed was super comfy and the view reminded me of my college days in NY. Just watching cars go by and at night with the lights reflecting off the windows creating various patterns. My only challenge was the TV... can you believe after all that good stuff my issue was the TV!? Just the hardest thing to navigate. maybe its cause I dont watch enough TV. :).

This is the first time I stayed in Philadelphia. The hotel is renovated from an old building. The location is invincible, the decoration is exquisite, and the breakfast is delicious. I haven't been to the beautiful country for four years. I found that their service is learning from Asian hotels, and the improvement is quite obvious.

The location of the hotel is located in the city center. It is very convenient for eating, shopping, and going to the main check-in locations. You can walk to the city hall and other places in a few minutes. Diagonally across from the hotel is the reading market. Communicate with the hotel front desk in advance to delay check-out, and the service staff responded in a timely manner, extending it by an hour and a half, a very good service experience.

The location of the hotel is very good. On the left hand side is the town hall. On the right side, a few streets are the Independence Palace. The opposite is Marriott. There are delicious coffee and bread downstairs. It is very convenient to eat and go shopping.

Despite the extreme bustle of the busy weeekend the staff remained cool and collected Karen after bridezilla. I was always greeted by a refreshing smile and a great recommendation. This is a great stay for anyone looking to remain pedestrian in a hip part of the city. I was able to comfortably close all my exercise rings between restaurants, coffee and sightseeing.

Booked a 1 king room here while here on business. I booked through Hotwire since I didn't care what hotel I got, as long as it was walking distance from my meetings. I'm glad I got this hotel! It's not too far from public transit, but you will have to walk more than a few blocks. In the HOT August heat, it was a bit of a bear with a rolling bag. This place is close to EVERYTHING and in a very nice area of Philly near Rittenhouse Square without being in the ”middle” of the craziness. I ended up getting in earlier than I thought, but to my surprise, they already had my room ready several hours early. Score! The hotel is old and you can tell, BUT the modern decor, the upgraded furniture and amenities didn't make it feel ”old”. This is truly a boutique hotel. The room was pretty clean and spacious enough for being in downtown Philly. The decor was very splashy with a local feel. It had all the modern amenities and wifi was usually pretty good. The bed was comfy with plush linens and plenty of pillows. There was a decent amount of storage for my things. Everything was in good working order. The bathroom was clean with a decent amount of counter space. I appreciated the upgraded amenities. The view was just ok, facing tall buildings, but I didn't book it for the view. Even though this was in the middle of downtown, it was very quiet inside. The concierge was very helpful in understanding the area and gave great suggestions. The Schuylkill trail is easy walking distance from the hotel and the overall area felt very safe. I did see quite a bit of homeless people sleeping on the trail however, but they weren't bothering anyone. Checking out was painless and quick. I'd definitely stay here again when in Philly!

Excellent location. Very easy to walk anywhere. A bit of a small room but good for 1 or 2 people. Room is not sound proof at all, heard next door chit chatting late at night.

Ben and Sam were amazing! Thanks for a great stay. Room was clean. Bed was very comfy. Housekeeping staff were very rude. Only negative during our stay. We paid for late checkout but they were very aggressive at our door all morning so don’t pay for late checkout if you don’t absolutely have to.
