The hype
Travelers adore the Art Deco vibes and central location but consistently groan about the elevator logistics.
Loews Philadelphia
$179-289 / đêm
Đặt phòng nếu You want to sleep inside America's first modern skyscraper with killer views and the Reading Terminal Market at your doorstep.
Tại Sao Mọi Người Yêu Thích Nó
- Historic PSFS Building architecture (Art Deco stunner)
- Floor-to-ceiling views from 'Grand' rooms on high floors
- Bank & Bourbon's barrel-aged cocktail program
Tóm tắt nhanh: A grand historic shell with unbeatable location, but the elevators are slow and the pool is gone forever.
Được đánh giá bởi @itskimberlyfisher: I stayed at Loews Philadelphia and the room felt huge for a city hotel. The view of the Jefferson building from my window was iconic, and the staff left the sweetest welcome treats. It felt like a true home base in the city.

Reality check
You might get a connecting room with thin walls even if you didn't ask for one—request a non-connecting room at booking.
- You are a history or architecture buff (it's the PSFS building)
- You are attending a convention (Convention Center is 1 block away)
- You are traveling with a dog (only $40/stay fee)

- Maintenance: Good condition for a historic building, though elevators are the main mechanical weak point.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and high quality, typical of the Loews brand.
- Odors & scents: Neutral to fresh; no lingering smoke smells reported recently.

FAQ & Những mẹo ẩn
Mọi thứ bạn thực sự muốn biết trước khi đặt phòng.
Is there really no pool?
Correct. The pool is permanently closed. The Joseph Anthony Spa offers water treatments (Turkish bath), but no swimming pool.
How much is parking?
Valet is ~$60.02/night including tax. There is no self-park on-site, but public garages nearby (like 12th & Filbert) are cheaper.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, very. Loews charges a flat $40 fee per stay (limit 2 pets), which is much cheaper than most city hotels.
Does the hotel charge a resort fee?
Yes, a 'Destination Fee' of approximately $29/night is added to the bill.
Is breakfast included?
No. Breakfast at Bank & Bourbon costs ~$16-35 per person.
How close is the Convention Center?
It is directly across the street. You can't get closer.

5 điều cần biết trước khi bạn đi
💡The elevators have a 'bank' system that can be confusing and slow during rush hour.
💡The 'concierge' is often just a text-message service, not a person at a desk.
💡The gym has Peloton bikes, which is a nice perk for a hotel of this age.
💡Room service ends early compared to other major city hotels (often 10pm or 11pm).
💡The HVAC units in older rooms can be loud and rattle.
