Frommer's Review
The Avenue of the Arts location of this hotel is good for culture-seekers and families. The garage entrances ingeniously keep traffic flows separate for three floors of meeting facilities. The decor features rich paisleys and Degas-style murals alluding to the orchestral and ballet life at the Academy of Music across the street. Thanks to the saw-toothed design of the building, each of the guest rooms has two views of town. Obviously, the higher floors afford the better views, with outlooks toward the Delaware River (eastern corner) or City Hall (northeastern corner) being the most popular. The bathrooms are clean and bland, and the Doubletree signature is a box of great chocolate chip cookies delivered to your room upon arrival.
Facilities:
2 restaurants; lounge; indoor lap pool; health club, and a small jogging track circling a huge rooftop deck; Jacuzzi; steam room; activities desk; laundry; dry cleaning
