Omni Hotel at Independence Park 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. You'll immediately get a sense of history courtesy of the horse-drawn carriages clip-clopping past the valet parking drop-off and elegant glass-and-steel canopy. Once past the classic lobby with its huge vases of flowers and a clubby adjacent bar with a player piano, newly refurbished guest rooms are of modest size and cheerful, with park views, original pastels, and live plants. 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; concierge; health club; Jacuzzi; indoor lap pool; room service; sauna; 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.
