We loved our stay and would gladly come again! This was a very last minute trip, and we managed to get a very good rate for this hotel. We had no idea what to expect, and we found it to be one of the nicer hotels in its price range that we’ve stayed at!
Our room was very clean and cozy with a beautiful panoramic view. While the furnishings weren’t brand new, they feel clean and definitely updated in recent years. Air and water purifiers in the room was a plus, as well as a very secure door lock — provides much peace of mind to solo travelers.
The breakfast buffet had a wide variety of foods and was good! Not the best hotel breakfast we’ve had, but one that we felt very much satisfied with.
A warm cookie at check-in was also a plus!🙂 We had a great time here and hope to come again.

Good location for visiting most attractions. Clean, comfortable rooms. Onsite marketplace is handy for basic breakfast and snacks.

We inadvertantly booked Trip.com instead of Hilton directly as I always do. 2 rooms. When we arrived, one room was ready but the other was not. They told us to come back closer to 2pm. We did. Wasn't ready. Come back closer to 3pm, and we were told, "it may be closer to the guaranteed time of 4pm." We had reservations and that would push us. However, we came back at 3 and were told that "because you're third party....." Everyone around us was getting a key but our room wasn't ready. We were made to feel like third class citizens because we were "third party." I wasn't given a chance to show my Hilton Honors number because we were "third party." Well, the "guaranteed" time of 4pm came and went, and we were getting anxious about missing our reservation. At 4:20 the representative went to a manager and got some sort of waiver but explained the room was not the one we paid for. (Two queens) but instead it was 1 queen and beside the elevator. By now we were so late we just went with it. We wasted more than 3 hours in the lobby, were made to feel inferior because we were "third party" and we had a substandard room when we paid for better. Bad experience, made worse by bad policy, insensitivity of representative by continued bexplanation that the reason everyone else was getting their room because we were "third party", apparently a form of low class in Hilton. Well, I'm a Hilton Honors member for decades, and while we made a mistake because you sold rooms to a third party and we were usurped online, our mistake ruined a perfectly good visit.

Excellent stay at the Double Tree Hotel. Just stayed for one night and paid a little more to have a room on the 23rd floor. Had a beautiful view of City Hall. Parking was self park and $38 in the garage next door. However a nice perk is you get parking privileges until 11:59pm on the day of check out. So if you have a few more hours to explore Philly you can just leave your car in the garage. Room was very clean, bright and the staff were friendly. King size bed was comfortable. Overall very satisfied

Good service, terrific location, and reasonable breakfast. Love here! I will revisit here next time. However, I chose this hotel for swimming pool, and the pool was too small and shallow, and water was cold. I guess it was only for kids.

As a Hilton Honors Diamond member I was not welcomed because I booked my stay from Trip.com. The front desk staff was not courteous at all. The body wash was empty in my room.

I will never come back again because of the very rude and unfriendly staff. I chose this place only for the location, but I understand everything else is nonsense, but the staff service is 0 points

Overall, hotels of the same level in the United States, especially in such a big city, are still not as good as those in China. This location is very convenient, with bars, various restaurants, and small supermarkets nearby. There is a parking garage nearby for parking. However, the small roads are all one-way.

The room has a connecting door that is not soundproof, and the sound of the guests talking and watching TV next to me is clear.

The hotel is located in the city center, with a good location. You can see the City Hall building when you go out, and the concert hall is opposite. I didn't dare to go out at night, so I just sat in the lobby and watched the hustle and bustle of people. The hygiene of foreign hotels is OK, but the facilities and services are still far behind those of domestic hotels of the same level.

It was a very clean hotel.
The subway is very close by, so it's very convenient.
Also, if you go straight north, you'll find the city hall, so you won't get lost. The gym has dumbbells of about 35 kg. The receptionists, floor staff, and housekeepers were also very friendly, which left a good impression. There was also welcome water and cookies.
