"Close to all we required"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Mar 2, 2013
Excellent stay. I went on business and my wife and kids on vacation. The check-in counter/customer service/staff were exceptionally good. The only minor issue I had was that the shower head in the bathroom is too low - I am 6'2" .

Bedrooms very nice and comfortable...rooms in general could use some upgradings.....great amenities w breakfast and cocktail hour.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"OUTSTANDING"
This hotel is absolutely fantastic from the lavish accommodations to the absolute royal treatment of all of the staff that I encountered!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Second time here."
The only issue was finding a dead roach in the bathroom after coming back from a conference. The front desk agents were apologetic, attentive and resolved the issue immediately. They followed up with me later that evening as well. I understand it can be tough to eliminate all critters at all times. With exception of this incident, the second time was […] just as good as the first visit. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Service"
I use this hotel for single nights when I am working overtime. Over the past month, I have booked it more frequently. This has allowed me to enjoy the service provided by the staff. In particular, I would like to single out Peggy, who is on the fromt desk, and has been absolutely outstanding in her attention to detail and courtesy.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Buisness & Getaway"

"Honeymoon"
We had a wonderful time here. TGI Friday restaurant was located in the same building which was great since it was snowing outside. We tried the appetizers and drinks, and they were delicious. The hotel is close to all attractions and you can walk about 15 minutes to Liberty Bell or catch a cab. We took the big tour bus to see all the history and saw […] the the Rocky statue. Later that evening we went to see San Antonio Spurs play and it was about 20 minutes away. Service was excellent and the window view was beautiful. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"very bad customer service"
very bad customer serviceGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Had fun at their Happy Hour and Breakfast Buffet was included. I had Flowers & other items delivered to the Hotel for the "Birthday Girl" in our group, they were great!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
the hotel was fantastic, full of pleasant surprises. the breakfast was amazing with a fantastic hot bar and made to order omelet bar!! The room was comfortable and clean and even without a city view room my view was lovely off of the balcony in my suite.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great location"
Great location and friendly service. I had booked a king bed, but instead was given a suite with two double beds because all the rooms with king beds had been taken. This was disappointing but not a huge problem. Other than that, it was great. The fitness room is quite nice as well.Genuine Expedia guest review
"near the museums"
close to the museums on the park way but a little distant from some of the restaurants and some of the shopping but loved the room very comfortableGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"great location and good value"
It was an ideal location for the art museums. It also offered breakfast which is a big plus.The suite space was also really nice to have.A win,win,win!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Location was convenient.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"O.K. for a night or two"
Not very clean. I had to fix the toilet inside so it would flush and my wife ran out of hot water in the shower. On the plus side, it was quiet and roomy.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Hotel is good, Parking is to expensive"
Parking was to expensive, only Valet parking at $38 +$7.50 taxes for 14 hours.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great Hotel"
Always enjoy my stay when my significan other and I stay for NYE.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Spacious, friendly, and great location"
We stayed in January, but even given that it wasn't peak season, the price was an absolute bargain for the location and amount of space you get. The suite was huge - about 700 square feet, with a kitchen area, living room area, and bedroom. There was even a porch. The staff was very friendly at check-in, and called up to the room to make sure we were […] satisfied once we settled in. It's located very close to museums on Ben Franklin Parkway, and is generally convenient to many destinations. The only drawbacks were relatively long waits for the three elevators (the building is 26 stories tall), and the somewhat loud HVAC unit, which seemed to stay on most of the time and blow a lot of air without really changing the temperature much. I was also surprised that the bed did not have a proper winter comforter, but rather just sheets. While the quality of the hotel would therefore merit a 4/5 rating, I'm bumping it up to 5/5 due to the price, service, and location. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Anywhere but the fourth floor is fine!"
I stay at this hotel with some frequency (maybe 20 times/year) for a single night. On the last three times, I was twice given a room on the 4th floor. Unlike the other rooms that I have had, these tend to be smaller, and are showing some signs of wear and tear, In both rooms the bedcovers were itchy, and had to be removed from the bed for comfort.. […] There is just a noticable difference beteen the rooms on that floor and those on the other floors. Overall, it is still a worthwhile place to stay. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great trip"
Thanks to Embassy Suites. What a great place to stay in Philly. And free breakfast at the TGIF Friiday's.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
This guest did not leave a comment.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Really enjoyed our stay. Staff was very helpful and pleasant. The only complaint was that we had to turn the heat off at night because it was very loud. Also, the breakfast in the morning was insane. It was so crowded. No tables. Had to wait for plates and mugs and it was a cramped area. Would have been nicer to have it more open, but the food was great!!! […] Once we had a table and our food it was all good from there, but it was like a half hour process. The location was awesome. Walking distance to everything. I have a 11 and 12 year old and they had a blast!!!! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"spacious, clean rooms and great location"
Overall, we enjoyed staying at the hotel. The room was very clean and large and the service was friendly. My two issues were the elevators and breakfast. At times, the elevators came fairly quickly, there were other times when we waited for more than 10 minutes. Granted this occurred during prime breakfast and checkout time, but I can't say I've ever […] waited that long for an elevator. Also, on the 2nd day of our stay, we arrived for breakfast just before 9:30 (getting there so late because of the elevator being delayed) and the doors to TGI FRidays were locked. There were maybe 50 people waiting to get in or to get on an elevator so it was very chaotic. After being told that the restaurant was closed and that there was no food, we were finally let in to eat. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Right on Ben Franklin Parkway"
Hotel is in a great location and very safe neighborhood. Lots of surround restaurants and very convenient to explore Philadelphia. One of the drawing points to the hotel was the free breakfast-don't bother. The breakfast is awful (a free for all buffet in TGIF). Go out for breakfastGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Awful service, beautiful hotel"
I booked this hotel under my name and was having 3 other guests arrive before me. When they checked in, they gave my name and were checked in with no problems. when I went to check in 2 hours later, they gave me a hard time b/c someone else had already checked into my reservation. When I gave my ID and explained that I had booked the hotel for 4 people […] they continued to give me a hard time b/c they claimed that they wouldn't allow someone to check into the room with their name also being on the reservation. It took 20 minutes to get this all straighted out. When we went to the front desk to ask for directions, one of the workers saw that I had a smart phone and told me that I would be able to look up directions on my phone. Now I understand that the hotel was busy due to the holiday weekend, and the hotel was beautiful, but the service was AWFUL!! There should be no reason that anyone should be treated like that- especially in the service industry! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Loved the hotel Cust service needs a lot of help"
Customer Service needs some help. Very rude on the phone. I don’t think I would go back on that alone It’s a shame because the hotel itself was wonderful and very close to the museums. Parking $45.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great Place to Stay!"
We stayed at this hotel because it was close to our holiday party at the Crystal Team Room. The hotel was very clean, the staff was very nice, and our room was very spacious. We had a great time and will stay here again next year.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Army Navy Weekend"
We were not given pillows and a blanket for the sofa sleeper. It took 2 hours for the staff to deliver them. We had to call the front desk 3 times. The front desk argued with us about our room number. The suite phone number showed at the front desk as the room next door to us. I finally convinced the clerk that I knew which room I was in. The next night […] when we called requesting a later check out time I had to convince the front desk again of our room number. The telephone system was messed up. Other than that misunderstanding everything was great. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Cool place"
Staff was awesome. Room was pretty nice. Found someone else's trash (1 small piece) on the counter, and a cup lid on the floor under the bed. Coffee pot didn't work properly. I think the valet parking should be included in the price of the room. All that aside, I would most like stay there again if I need to go back to Philadelphia.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Big rooms, but everything else - just okay."
Room is huge and it has microwave and refrigerator which is great. Coffeemaker is in room, but they only gave us one pack of DECAF coffee. Silly... and useless. Breakfast was in adjoining TGI Fridays, and the place felt kind of dirty and the food/coffee, etc. was just passable. Also, hotel is outdated and the layout of the building is a bit weird. Staff […] was friendly and helpful - and location was good... but all in all I wasn't impressed. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
