The hype
Families love the location and the atrium vibe, but business travelers hate the noise and inconsistent maintenance.
Radisson Philadelphia Northeast
$110-170 / nit
Reserva-ho si You're a Sesame Place family who needs a crash pad with a pool and doesn't mind rolling the dice on room quality.
Per Què Agrada Tant
- 7-minute drive to Sesame Place (official partner hotel)
- Photogenic atrium lobby that feels grander than the price tag
- Free parking in a city where that's increasingly rare
Vista ràpida: A suburban conference hotel suffering from an identity crisis—half newly renovated, half construction zone, and consistently noisy.
Revisat per @nizartajdin: I was blown away by how much space I had in the King Suite—it felt like a full apartment. The dining table was perfect for my laptop, and the library downstairs was such a peaceful spot to unwind. If you're in Philly for business, this is a solid, reliable choice.

Reality check
The 'newly renovated' marketing claim is doing heavy lifting; many guests still find themselves in dated rooms with musty smells and worn carpets.
- You need a base camp for Sesame Place and plan to be out all day
- You want a hotel with a bar/restaurant on-site so you don't have to drive for dinner
- You appreciate free self-parking and easy highway access
Neteja i Manteniment
6
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Many guests report trash not being taken out and 'missed spots' on carpets.
- Bathroom hygiene: Hit or miss. Renovated rooms are fine; older rooms have reports of peeling tub glaze and hair in drains.
- Maintenance: Struggling. Reports of broken ice machines, flickering lights, and AC units that rattle.
- Linens & towels: Average industrial quality. Check for stains before settling in.
- Odors & scents: Older rooms can smell musty or like stale smoke; Atrium smells like chlorine.

Consells de Professionals
- ✨
The 'Library Lounge' is actually a decent spot for a nightcap, but prices are hotel-standard (high).
- ✨
Ask for a 'Business Class' room if available—they are often the first to be renovated.
- ✨
The Wawa next door is a lifesaver for cheaper snacks and coffee than the hotel offers.
5 coses que cal saber abans de partir
💡The 'sensor' lights in bathrooms sometimes turn off while you're in the shower—bring a nightlight.
💡The atrium design looks great in photos but acts as a giant megaphone for noise.
💡Housekeeping can be 'on request' only—you might need to chase them down for fresh towels.
💡The elevators are slow and often show their age with creaks and groans.
💡There is a weird disparity in water pressure between floors; lower floors tend to be better.
