"Needs Work"
Reviewed by Barb of New York on Nov 9, 2009
Attempts to have a quiet night in my room were thwarted by the loud noise from the atrium area which carried to the 4th floor (top floor) until late. Also, something was wrong with the elevators as they smelled terribly of burning rubber. I felt it was overpriced for the condition of the hotel.

"A pretty good hotel nice location"
Reviewed by M of Farnborough, Hampshire, UK on Aug 28, 2009
We stayed whilst on holiday, family of 4, kids were 12 & 10, they loved the pool which they used everyday, it was a good size and has a lovely hot tub/jacuzzi on the side. Great location if you want to see the major historic bits like liberty bell and Penn's landings. Only a short walk to bus stop and underground for getting to everywhere else. Room was OK, nothing really special but without any problems if you are travelling and using this hotel as a base. Enjoyed the place.

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Aug 22, 2009
Concierge, in particular, was outstanding. The weekends are really, really crowded at this hotel due to weddings so it can be a bit loud as many guests aren't very considerate. However, it was very quiet on the other nights.

Reviewed by Steve of Lebanon on Aug 2, 2009
I've stayed at this hotel before. It's a nice enough property but the day I had to spend extra time in the lobby doing business they were more worried about outside people using the men's room than taking care of the people that paid to be there. That aside, the room was nice and was very clean.

"Minor Issues Under the Surface"
Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jul 9, 2009
While I received excellent face-to-face service from every member of the hotel staff I interacted with, small issues here and there raised questions about organization, procedure, and upkeep. Upon checking in, I was first given a key and room that was still occupied, which I learned when housekeeping decided to knock for me since my key was not working. I was immediately given a new room on the same floor. Other issues included an extremely high daily rates for parking at the hotel, a hole in the bathroom door where a peg for hanging clothes had once been, and a defective deadbolt on the room door. Minus that last issue, all of these were really minor problems in an otherwise excellent hotel for out-of-town visitors without cars.

"Great location for siteseeing, restaurants"
Reviewed by Katie of New Haven area on Jun 23, 2009
This hotel is right in the Old City, and is in walking distance of so many things! It's a few blocks from the historical sites of Philadelphia, as well as some great restaurants and nightlife. We had food and drinks at Tribute and The Blue Martini. Both were great (although we were partial to Tribute. We also walked down to South Street to do some shopping and grab Cheesesteaks at Jim's. The hotel was clean and nice. The room was comfortable and the staff was very friendly. There is complimentary internet in the lounge (with computers, you don't need to bring your own). The only suggestion I have is to park your car at the garage around the corner, as long as you aren't going to want to keep taking it in and out. To just leave it parked for 24 hours was about $15 cheaper than using the hotel's valet. We would definitely stay at the Sheraton Society Hill again!

Great location for a hotel, essentially across the street from Penn's Landing and a 5 minute walk to South Street. Also a large selection of bars and restaurants within walking distance, or a 10 minute cab ride. Hotel lobby is really nice, and the rooms are comfy with good amenities. A great base to sightsee from in Philly.

I've now stayed twice at the Sheraton Society Hill in Philadelphia. The rooms were neat and clean--that shouldn't be a surprise, but I was pleasantly surprised by the courteousness and helpfulness of the staff from start to finish. It's only a few blocks from some of historic Philadelphia as well as a few interesting pubs and restaurants. The next time I go back to Philly, I will very likely stay there again.

"Oustanding Hotel"
Reviewed by Diane of Kezar Falls on Apr 11, 2009
This hotel definitely exceeded our expectations in all areas. It was located in the heart of the "old Philly" district and was within walking distance to all the standard attractions. The service was exemplary - one day it was quite rainy and the bellhop stopped us as we walked out the door and handed us two umbrellas, saying "You'll be needing these today." I've never had that happen in a hotel before. I was disappointed only in that the Internet acces is still not complimentary. In this day and age I expected it.
