When I had arranged my stay at the Crowne Plaza, I had not realized Philly was in the midst of the World Series. Despite the heavy influx of guest and events at the Crowne, the staff was remarkable. The concierge services are excellent. The front desk clerks were attentive and very helpful and the accomodations were perfect. As a business... more

This wasn't an outstanding hotel, but it was decent for the price. Because of the price it seems to cater to noisier guests. When I was there it included several large groups of college kids for a rowing competition and another group of high school or college-aged kids for some other sort of club activity convention. The rooms seems to... more

I reserved two rooms here for family gathering. I reserved through Crowne Plaza's website using an ADVANCE PURCHASE. I confirmed our reservations by phone several days in advance, indicating that we were going to be a late arrival, and that we desperately needed rooms close by on the same floor as we travel with elderly, needy family members who must... more

My wife and I went down to Philly for the Red Bull Soapbox Derby. The hotel had very good reviews on Orbitz so we decided to book it. I'm a sucker for the hotel rewards programs and here it paid off. I signed up at the desk and got upgraded to a second floor room. It was brand new! Amazing... more

Two words - STAY HERE!! Location was perfect, hotel was well decorated and the free High speed was awesome! The only hotel I could find with free parking in or around the city! more

Had a couple of friends stay there and went for a weekend get-away based on their recommendations. We arrived early and our room was ready well before the check-in time. The desk staff was efficient and friendly and the lobby was eloquently decorated. The room was spacious, very clean with an extremely comfortable bed! We were sight seeing and the... more

This is a GREAT place to stay! I stay in hotels 100+ nights per year (mostly Marriotts and Hiltons) and this is a better hotel at a much better price. What's good: rooms (newly redone); service (great service with friendly staff); facilities (free internet, free parking, free fitness center); price. I think they've redone/upgraded the whole hotel in the past... more

This former Holiday Inn is well-situated at the edge of the city, but is hard to get in and out of due to the traffic. The room we stayed in for 6 nights was badly in need of a renovation. The furniture was in poor shape as was the carpet and wallpaper. The bedding was fine and the linens were... more

I was in town for a Chemical Convention and was walked from the Hilton. I was pleasantly suprised as to how nice everything was. I had a brand new room and overall everyone could not have been nicer. They offered free internet and a really comfy bed. I did not eat in the restaurant but I did take advantage of... more
