Top Schuylkill River Trail Hotel Reviews

Element by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful Stay and Excellent Hospitality! We had a wonderful stay at Element Philadelphia. From check-in to check-out, the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and genuinely interested in making sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was excellent, with a great variety of food to choose from. A special shout-out to the breakfast team, who were always cheerful and attentive, keeping food, juices, and beverages constantly replenished. They regularly checked on us to see if we were enjoying our breakfast or needed anything else. It was such a pleasure to start each morning with their warm hospitality. The reception staff were just as wonderful, always welcoming, pleasant, and ready to help with a smile. What stood out most was how genuinely caring everyone was. It really made us feel welcome and appreciated. Thank you to the entire team at Element Philadelphia for making our stay so enjoyable. Keep up the great work! We would certainly stay here again and happily recommend this hotel to others. We will definitely return. Thank you!"

DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Center City

10/10 Excellent

"Wish they provided parking for customers"

Loews Philadelphia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was spotless. Staff were polite, professional and super helpful. Valet parking was convenient and there was a lot to do within walking distance. It was a little pricey, but I'd definitely stay there again!"

Cambria Hotel Philadelphia Downtown - Center City

8/10 Good

"The Cambria is excellently located on Broad Street just south of the Philadelphia City Hall. There are numerous restaurants nearby, and the hotel is located on and between subway and bus lines that got us everywhere we wanted to go from the Delaware to Rittenhouse Square and along Broad Street. There are three elevators in the lobby, but only one was working during our stay. We were glad our room was on the third floor, though we enjoyed a previous stay on a higher floor in large measure for the view toward the river. The 30th Street Station is a short Uber ride or a ride on the public transportation system. Waits for the SEPTA trains can be long, though the buses run more frequently."
