aloft Philadelphia Airport Review

A glimpse of the future of overnighting can be had from this lower-priced branch of Starwood's upscale W Hotels chain. Opened in 2008, aloft brings a younger, higher-tech vibe to the neighborhood via airport check-in kiosks, a lounge à la George Jetson, a 24/7 self-serve snack bar, Bliss Spa bath amenities, clear and present (and free) wireless Internet throughout, a car wash, and, spare, well, loftlike rooms with iPod docking stations, ergonomic workspaces, walk-in showers, and a novel concept: platform beds that face the windows.

Facilities:
Restaurant; lounge; fitness center; indoor pool; free Wi-Fi throughout; car wash

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.
