"Convenient Location and Cheap Last Minute Stay"
This is a beautiful, clean hotel. The staff was friendly and the room was very cheap for a last minute stay in the area. The bathrooms are trouble-closing-the-bathroom-door-without-hitting-yourself small, and the mattress felt a little cheap, but neither of these factors would stop me from staying again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel, great location"
We were really pleased with our room, one of the handicap accessible, so it did have a very large bathroom, comfortable bed, clean, very quiet and great location for walking to places of interest, historic sites, restaurants, and shopping. The restaurant , Elephant and Castle, located in the hotel was convenient for breakfast. We will definitely stay […] here again on our next trip to Philladephia.

"Close to Thanksgiving Day Parade"

"Philly Thanksgiving stay"
Had a wonderful 1st trip to Philadelphia. Nice visit to resaurants and sites! We will be back and when we do, we will ensure we stay here! Staff were helpful and polite and the rooms were clean and organized. Hotel itself, was nicely decorated for the Holidays! Thank you!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Location, location, location!"
Can't beat the Center City location. SO convenient for museums, shopping and most recently, the Marathon. Clean but rather worn hotel. Toilet slow to flush, bathroom was very small, and the mini-hair dryer was useless. On the positive side, the elevators were fast and left short waiting time. Staff was helpful and courteous. Loved the fruit-infused […] water cooler in the lobby. Nice touch! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"In town for the Eagles game."
Our stay was fine. We were close to any number of places to shop, eat, and drink. We were also within walking distance of a number of Philadelphia landmarks. The subway was close to our hotel as well for our trip to the Eagles game. A nice place...no big issues.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The stay was nice. The hotel had a pool area and workout room that were clean and had the equipment that you would expect. There were a lot of shops and restaurants within walking distance from the hotel. We booked the hotel through hotels.com less than 10 minutes before showing up and there was no problems. Parking was expensive but, when you're in […] the city, your hands are tied. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Birthday Stay in Philly"
My daughter was going to be celebrating her 30th birthday and I wanted to make it memorable. So, in the process of moving my son to Philly for graduate school I booked a room at the Crowne Plaza for she and I. The hotel is beautiful...helpful personell....relaxing bar and restaurant. Food was excellent and the room was wonderful....don't think I ever […] slept in a more comfortable bed. My daughter loved it and her trip to the Philly Zoo. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Crowne plaza on market st in Philadelphia"
Being a big fan of Philadelphia, my husband and I decided to take a 2 day family trip with our two toddlers. We were excited because we had never stayed in a "fancy" crown Plaza. Well there was nothing fancy about this hotel. The room was like any average hotel room. What was the most disappointing was there was not a microwave or refrigerator in the […] room. This is a must for a mother of small children. However, for $25 each you could get these sent to your room. Ridiculous!!! Not staying here again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very Nice Philly Location"
We were pretty close to many attractions. Excellent pool. Clean, comfortable room. Lively Bar in the hotel close to Rittenhouse Square. Hotel staff was awesome. The valet at $32 per night was our only option. Pretty steep. The room rate was $122 for a downtown hotel on Friday and saturday night! You won't do much better in any city than that and the […] room was better than other hotel.com hotels in Cincy, Cleveland, Boston on the same trip. The only negative was a cheap matress.

"Centrally Located to Many Philly Tourist Spots"
We were looking for an affordable, clean hotel located close to the typical Philly tourist destinations and we found it at the Crowne Plaza. The rate was a little higher than what I normally like to pay, but because of the location (downtown), it was to be expected and the Crowne Plaza still came out more affordable than other offerings. The parking […] was a little expensive as well, but I was willing to fork over a bit more for the convenience of parking there at the hotel as opposed to schlepping our bags a few blocks to cheaper parking. The rooms were clean and the hotel staff were very friendly. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the key-operated elevator. Meaning you could only visit the floor your room was located on by inserting your key. I'm not experienced enough of a traveler to know if this is the norm in other hotels, but we had others in our party staying with us on a different floor and sometimes it was hard to coordinate where we were going to meet up. But this is a petty complaint as it was just as easy to meet up in the lobby each day. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"only issue was...."
It was very very had to find. Being non NY people, we assumed a street address on gold street mentioned the door would be on gold streetcar(which is a tiny two block street). Entrance is around the corner . We litteraly walked right by three times. They need a sign on gold. Service was gear. Room was Ave size but nice. 3 short blocks from all subs. […] Lots of close by markets with good food and coffee. Lack of coffee was a handycap but doable . BIGGEST COMPLAINT. Wireless was 10 bucks a day... not acceptable.

"Great base to explore the area from"
This hotel has a great restaurant and bar which make for some very relaxing evenings after a day of sightseeing. It is also situated very close to the 30th Street train station, the Amtrak hub, which makes travelling around the area very convenient. If you have a car, getting to and from this hotel is very easy, as it is just two minutes drive from […] the main expressway. Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel as a great base to explore the area from. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"lovely hotel"
This hotel was very welcoming from the start. I had a very fast check in and was given plenty of local information, hints and tips from staff. Rooms very clean and comfortable. The hotel is centrally located so you can walk to most major tourist attractions and a bus runs from just up the road. Really enjoyed my stay here and would recommend the hotel […] to others.

"Hotel Crown Plaza Philadelphia - centralt placeret"
Rigtig godt hotel med en yderst professional service fra alle ansatte. Vi havde booket en værelse med 2 dobbeltsenge da vi har 4 personer. Der var masser af plads på værelset og det pænt og rent. Hotellet er placeret meget centralt og der er kun ca. 10 min gågang til de fleste seværdigheder.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
