Doubletree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport

"The staff in the bar/grill unable to figure out a straight splitting of tab. Disappointed this was only option as our impression was there was a restaurant on site. Breakfast buffet eggs cold as well as grits. Suggest individual purchase of items as well as specialized coffee in designated lobby area"

"The hotel is lovely, and the room was excellent! Quiet and comfortable and spacious. Will definitely stay again! Only complaint was that two of the three elevators were out of service, causing VERY long wait times and a completely packed elevator car every time."
