Frommer's Review

This small, polished corner hotel banks on its terrific Independence National Historical Park location, less than a block from Old City's trendy restaurant and gallery scene. Past the classic lobby with its huge vases of flowers and a clubby adjacent bar with a player piano are modestly sized, cheery rooms with park views; original pastels; live plants; and a sense of history, courtesy of the horse-drawn carriages clip-clopping past the valet parking drop-off and elegant glass-and-steel canopy. The staff here is noteworthy for its quality and its knowledge of the park. Another extra: The independent film-oriented Ritz Five movie theater is next door in the Bourse complex.

Facilities:
Restaurant; lounge; indoor lap pool; health club; Jacuzzi; sauna; concierge; room service, free Wi-Fi in lobby

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
