We loved that our room was over the ice cream shop...the kids thought that was really cool. We loved that it was in the middle of Peddlers Village and we could walk every where.

Very comfortable, quiet room. The hotel feels luxurious and intimate. Some of the decor is strange, but it gave us something to talk about! Our room has a strong odor, as if mildew was covered up with air freshener. Complimentary breakfast is convenient, with a good array of food. The choice of music for the dining room was odd—smooth jazz versions of 1950s pop songs played from radio complete with ads—classical music would be more appropriate to the elegant setting. We appreciate having real dishes both for breakfast and in our room—much nicer than disposable!

The room was very nice although the furniture was a bit old and we had some difficulty with the shower. Staff was very friendly and helpful, breakfast included, parking free and convenient. Nice to have multiple restaurants on site, although i really miss the live music they used to have.

Lousy breakfast
Wonderful hotel, comfortable, well kept in the heart of Chestnut Hill. Really enjoyed our stay. BUT- Lousy breakfast. Hard boiled eggs and cereal. For the price they charge, I would like a descent breakfast. I have had better breakfasts at hotels that were 1/2 the price.

the hotel was located on Main St in the middle of Chestnut Hill; a very beautiful and affluent area of Philadelphia. our room consisted of a large bedroom, bath and sitting room. it, as well as the rest of the hotel, was tastefully furnished and well maintained but all really needed a facelift. the staff was very friendly, parking right out back, great little brewery next door.

Lovely hotel in a great location but we had issues
When we went to shower the morning we were checking out (after a one night stay), our shower didn't work. When we told the front desk this when we were checking out, they didn't offer any discount or comping of the room due to the shower situation. They hinted that we might not have understood how to work the shower and then asked us if we wanted another room just to shower before we left. It's such a lovely hotel in other ways (location, room, historic charm) that I was surprised by the customer service on this and our check in encounter with staff. Customer service did not match up to the quality/price of the hotel. Also - be aware - yes, technically, they have parking. But they share the parking lot with a restaurant/brewery and when we checked in on a Friday afternoon/early evening, there was no parking to speak of. When we asked about it, she said: Yes, there's not usually any parking during business hours on Friday and Saturday - which didn't help us as our stay was Friday/Saturday.
