Society Hill Hotel

This isn't a "traditional" hotel experience. For starters, there isn't an elevator, so pack accordingly. The thermostat is defaulted to off and you have to push a button on the top right to turn it on. No front desk, but there is a number you can text, and I did a couple of times and received prompt responses. Friendly bartender staff, but then they got busy and I got ignored. There were a couple of hairs in the bed that weren't mine, and a stain on a sheet. Speaking of the bed, it was hard as a rock. The location can't be beat though. It's walking distance to many attractions, restaurants, a 7-11 and a CVS.

My husband and I stayed in this hotel this past weekend, and enjoyed our stay. The room was comfortable and clean. It is located in a great area with many historical sites, and restaurants within walking distance. There is also a nearby subway station (blue line - that runs along Market St). There is no 'front desk', so the restaurant staff will assist you with anything you need - and they needed to assist us with getting into our room because we were having trouble with our keycode. They were very helpful and friendly. We also enjoyed going to the restaurant a few times during our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

REstaurant for breakfast. Very good food and service. I had ricotta open face toast and it was tasty. The bread delicious. My friend had an omelet and she said it was excellent. (We are always looking for new breakfast places). Very attractive renewal of the old to look authentic. Looking forward to trying other meals there. I did not see the rooms (I live 3 blocks away) but if they use the same decorator who did the dining room and bar, I am sure they are very nice. The hotel has been an eyesore on the block for years and it has improved the neighborhood where many visitors come. I is across from The Museum of the American Revolution.
