I have stayed here 2-3 times a year for the past three years while in town caring for ailing elderly relatives. During this period of time I have watched the Hilton Philadelphia City Avenue decline from a solid 3.5 star hotel with a comfortable lobby, attentive service and quality business amenities to essentially a place designed to host meetings and... more

My family reserved a number of rooms at a group rate at this hotel for a wedding nearby. Check in is posted at 3pm. We arrived on wedding day, Saturday, at 12pm, hoping to perhaps luck out and check in a bit early. We were advised rooms weren't yet available. There are only 2 chairs in the lobby to sit... more

If you are a business traveller I dont think you can fault this place. Assuming you dont need a large swimming pool that is. The bar, attended by the charasmatic Jim, serves wonderful cocktails (Jim will mix you the best). Rooms are large (especially if you stay at the Suites next door - great value, and no hardship in that... more

I was afraid to bring my wedding group to this hotel after reading the reviews.....I was pleasantly surprised. Everyone we came into contact with made sure that this was enjoyable and non-stressful place before we got married. I asked for a new room and they gave me a corner room which was almost as big as a suite, but at... more

Just finished 4 nights at this hotel, my client's choice &, overall, 'uneven' is about the best way I can think to describe it. The beds are comfy, though I don't know why Hilton has moved away from using fitted bottom sheets on the beds when so many other hotels do, including Hilton Garden Inns & Hampton Inns, both members... more

Let me provide some context. I am a consultant for a global company so I do a lot of business travel and stay at a wide variety of hotels. I've never had this type of treatment at any other hotel. Here were my major issues with this hotel: 1) I was about to go to sleep and I found the... more

The first and most important issue is the location of the hotel. It's about a 15-20 minute taxi ride (about $20 before tip) to and from the Amtrak 30th St. station depending on traffic, so it isn't the most convenient place to stay if you're wanting to do the city center locations. You will pay the same taxi fare to... more

Their first mistake was to build the place on the Philadelphia side of City Line Avenue. Across the street, they'd have saved each guest about twelve bucks a night, which is the Philly City room tax. And they might have improved the tiny U for cars, which makes their valet parking strenuous, and makes the valets nasty when there's an... more

When I booked this room, I was under the impression that it was "a short drive to the 30th Street Amtrak Station." I did read other reviews on Trip Advisor, however, to prepare myself. I arrived by train and took a taxi to the hotel. It cost me around $20 to get from the 30th Street Amtrak Station to the... more

Visit started off well with a hello from doorman Herman but went downhill from their. Check- in was slow. Room requested was not ready. We were switched to a lesser room. The front desk staff not particularly welcoming and in fact except for Herman, staff attitude from bar to breakfast chef was not friendly. We were in town for a... more
