Hyatt Regency Philadelphia at Penn's Landing

Frommer's Review

This efficiently run waterfront hotel may be close to historic, bustling Old City, but it feels somewhat isolated, making it popular with large groups wanting to stick together. Built in 2000, the Hyatt Regency towers between I-95 and the Delaware River; its solid, Deco-style angles and boxes impossible to miss. Although walkways over the highway at Walnut and Dock streets allow for an easy, 5-block passage to historic sights, fast-paced Columbus Boulevard and the interstate separate the hotel from any particular neighborhood. My favorite part of the complex is the indoor pool, which overlooks the river and a dock full of old seafaring vessels. The Art Deco-themed rooms offer stupendous views of the riverfront or city, but I-95 noise does percolate up, so choose a riverview room if quiet is important to you. Self-parking can be tedious here, with long waits for the small garage elevator, so go with the valets for only $5 more (you can drive in and out as many times as you like without extra fees).
