Home away from home
It's my home away from home. I usually go there for business, but it is also perfect for finding a place where you watch the Eagles on a big screen with a crowd of well behaved fans.

Charming hotel in Old City
My anniversary is on Valentine's Day, which, this year was a long weekend with President's Day on Monday. The location of this hotel was perfect for a winter weekend trip to Philadelphia -- we loved being across from the American Revolutionary Museum, cookie hour, hot chocolate and warm inviting atmosphere at Independence Park Hotel. Great breakfast buffet with friendly staff. Would definitely stay again.

Great Stay with a Perfect Location!
Great Stay with a Perfect Location!
We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location is unbeatable—within walking distance to nearly all of the national park, which made exploring super easy. Plus, there are plenty of great restaurants right on the street, so we never had to go far for a good meal.
Breakfast being included was a huge bonus, and our kids especially loved the cookies and hot cocoa in the evenings! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making our stay even more enjoyable. Our room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable for our family of four. We stayed in a king-size room with a sofa bed, and it provided plenty of space for everyone.
Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again!

Perfect hotel and area to stay in, was in the center of many historical sites and museums that we wanted to visit. Very walkable. Also many great dining options to choose from. The staff here were so nice and accommodating. Our room was quaint and also quiet considering it was a fairly busy area.

Great location
We stayed two weeknights for part of a family sight-seeing trip. The hotel is in a great location for walking to Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell and some other historic spots—it is right across the street from the Museum of the American Revolution. The area felt safe and the building is just gorgeous. We didn’t love the parking situation in a garage a block and a half away. Our room was on the smaller side, but the crazy high ceilings made it feel much bigger. The beds were comfortable and the space was very clean. The water pressure was bad, but I guess that’s to be expected in an old building. The kids loved the free hot chocolate and cookies in the evenings and the liberty bell waffles in the mornings. The breakfast was otherwise pretty standard. Not a huge variety, but enough. Overall we would stay again.

The room was very quiet and clean, although a bit small. The staff was very helpful and they had nice touches like a hot chocolate and cookie bar near the desk along with coffee and tea. Parking was convenient and it is close to lots of bars and restaurants.

Wonderful stay! I chose this location based on its close proximity to the metro, but this hotel exceeded our expectations. It was spotlessly clean, the staff went our of their way to be friendly and to make our stay comfortable, and the breakfast was wonderful. We also appreciated the wine and cheese night on Wednesday and the luggage storage. A huge plus is that it was a quiet hotel. Thanks for a great stay!
