Top Southwark Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites by Hilton Philadelphia Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Suites are large and confortable esoecialky handicap rooms"

Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia

8/10 Good

"The hotel was fine for a couple of nights stay - we were in a KING room and it was very small and in need of updating Parking was a pain and off site, which is not great The area the hotel is in is in the City center - it really is not a great area especially at night There are a LOT OF PEOPLE hanging about on street corners and a lot of homeless around the hotel and the area Honestly, I did not feel 100% safe going back and forward to my hotel later at night and would not recommend it for any single female I have stayed in hotels in a lot of countries and cities around the world; it wasnt the most unsafe, but it certainly did not feel that safe, especially at night time I actually feel safer staying in hotels in Manhattan - that is simply my view and you may feel free to disagree Overall, the hotel was okay, but the surrounding area leaves a lot to be desired and I would not stay there again, due in main to the area and its surroundings"
