I recently stayed at this property on the 2nd half of a business trip. The room was large with separate bedroom. The hotel and rooms are a little dated, but not too different than most downtown hotels in the northeast. My room had a balcony, which was nice. I didn't make it to the gym, so I can't comment on...

The hotel itself was nice. Located near nice landmarks, and some nice restaurants, it was fairly convenient. The rooms were HUGE which gave the hotel a homey, non traditional feel that was comforting. The staff was so kind and friendly. I stayed there the wrong weekend though. The ILMUNC model UN conference was the same weekend I stayed, and it... More

At first I was not sure I was going to like this property at first glance, because of its untraditional building, but I was very wrong. Because of the building, the rooms are huge!!! There was plenty of space for our family of 5. The rooms were clean and appointed as Embassy Suites generally are. It is in a perfect... More

We loved the Hotel, my husband and two kids. Great location, and views. Our room was very spacious and have nice views from the living room and from the bedroom. We stayed at a 2 room double suite, city view. Very comfortable sheets to sleep in! Across the street there is a Subway Restaurant, and in the ground floor there... More

Very good experience at the Embassy Suites. Check in was quite fast, receptionist very cheerful and welcoming. Rooms are very spacious, with kitchenettes, living and dining area which are separate from the room. The hotel has TGI Fridays based at its lobby. As i was hanging my jackets in the closet, they got accidentally stained from some dry powder paint...... More

My wife, son and I stayed with her Brother's family to see a Sixer's game and explore the city. We walked to Reading Terminal for dinner where there are many selections. Then we took the Broad Street subway to the Game, which was easy and an experience for the kids. We had a great breakfast and saw the Mutter Museum,... More

Striking out with Philly hotels. The positives? Okay fitness center. 2 room suites, of course. Pretty good location but a little more removed than the more central hotels. Good complimentary happy hour in the nice lobby with lots of windows. The not so good. Holy over crowded elevators and loooong wait times on a busy weekend. Didn’t have that open... More

We had a double suite which was pretty large. We slept well (although the pillows are not the best) and everyone at the hotel was very friendly. Location is very good...especially if you want to walk around Center City, go to the Frankiln Institute, or go to the Reading Terminal Market. The breakfast buffet was nice, although I wish they...

Stayed here due to price and location, and feel i got exactly what i paid for, so no major complaints. The rooms are absolutely enormous, had a seperate lounge area (with kitchenette), bedroom and bathroom. All pretty standard for what i normally see in suite hotels. The only issue i had was trying to orientate myself to find my room... More
