Penn's View Hotel

Frommer's Review

Tucked behind the Market Street ramp to I-95 in a renovated 1856 hardware store, this small, exquisite inn exudes European flair; when you enter you'll feel as though you're in a private club. It was developed by the Sena family, owners of La Famiglia restaurant 450 feet south. The decor is floral and rich. The main concern is traffic noise, but the rooms are well insulated and contain large framed mirrors, armoires, and, in some cases, balconies. The ceilings have been dropped for modern heat and air-conditioning purposes, and you'll find marble Jacuzzi tubs and gas fireplaces in the 12 pricier rooms. A third bed can be wheeled into your room for $15. Popular Ristorante Panorama, adjacent to the lobby, offers excellent contemporary Italian cuisine at moderate prices. Also in the hotel is Il Bar, a world-class wine bar that pours 120 different wines by the glass.
