Amazing historic hotel close to everything

Pros: This hotel is a wonderful historic building located a block away from Independence Hall and easy access to many historic sites. The room was comfortable, and we would gladly stay here again. Cons: The air conditioning unit in our room made a lot of noise at times, but it was nothing that ear plugs didn't fix.

What a gem!

Pros: This place is a gem. I expected the charm of a colonial-era building, but the reality exceeded my expectations. The whole stay was marked by attention to details. The welcome was relaxed and we had a personal tour of the facilities (and all the staff during our visit was friendly and helpful). The entire house was decorated in subdued elegance, as was our room. We loved the little amenities (afternoon snacks) and the breakfast (no bacon or pancakes, but most everything else). Also, we were very happy that an excellent restaurant (Soufiane's) is in the building. Needless to say, th

Great overall

Pros: Breakfast was good, i would add unsweetened yogurt. Cons: Air conditioner was noisy. Also there was a loud mystery noise that probably came from the air conditioner

A very special place. Will definitely stay there again!

Pros: Beautiful historic mansion, very lovingly cared for by a delightful staff. Guests felt like they were part of history. Continental breakfast was fine, no frills but with very good fresh coffee -- all we needed. Bathroom was spacious, with both a shower and soaking tub. Comfortable bed and luxe pillows. Excellent location, easily walkable to everywhere, but on a quiet street. Cons: As noted on the website, no elevator, which was good to know in advance. Stairs to second floor room were steep and needed to be taken with caution.
