This was a weekend get away to see the Titantic exibit at the Franklin Institute. We were going to stay closer to the Institute and looked at places within walking distance but decided on Penn's View and were glad we did. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. We had to take a taxi to the Franklin Institute and the... More

Great location. In the heart of old city which is vibrant until 2am. Subway right outside. Or walk down market street into town in a few minutes. Around the corner from Elphreths alley and less than 10 mins walk on the flat to Independence Park. Overall location is spot on. Amenities are great. Comfy room, hot shower, opening balcony door,...

GREAT boutique hotel in a terrific location in old town Philadelphia. Room was very comfortable, and little to no highway noise, even though I-95 is a couple hundred yards away. Staff were very attentive to our needs. The morning continental breakfast was one of the best I have had in all my hotel stays. Location to oldtown Phili is perfect... More

Check in was prompt, informative and courteous. I was really impressed with the unique, quaint rooms. Big, fluffy towels, a comfortable bed and a free breakfast didn't hurt, either. On seeing the proximity of our hotel to the interstate, I was worried about noise, however we slept incredibly well. The buffet breakfast was excellent, with fresh fruit, waffles, juice, coffee,...

We stayed for four nights at the Penn's View Hotel. Great location for walking the historic sites. Our room was located on the 5th floor with a large veranda with a birds eye view of the Ben Franklin Bridge. Very little freeway noise even with the window open at night. The breakfast buffet was fantastic!! Fresh fruit, do it yourself... More

We loved the Penns View for many reasons. Great location, 1/2 block to subway, great historical area and it had the charm we were looking for. Quaint and clean place. Great free breakfast too. The only downfall is it can be a bit loud with the freeway nearby, but we would stay there next time we go and we will... More

My wife and I recently spent two nights here. Everything was as expected, clean and convenient with parking next door. The location is great and we walked to everything we wanted to see in the historic area. My only complaint is that I-95 is very close and we are not city people, so it seemed a little noisy at some... More

We booked this hotel based on the reviews on tripadvisor - it did not disappoint! Charming, great location, wonderful service. We arrived around 11pm and the gentleman at the front desk was friendly and helpful. We booked 2 rooms and one was slightly larger than the other but both were adorable and comfortable with little balconies facing the front of... More

Stayed here with my large family for Spring Break. Great hotel. Elegant and historic. Breakfast was great. The staff was tremendous - most especially Antonio who took care of our every need, and even offered to make himself available on his day off. Great views of the Ben Franklin Bridge, and awesome location in the Old City. Easy walk to... More
