As always, I try to be as fair and accurate as humanly possible. I will start off by telling you about all the positive attributes of this hotel and then I will voice my dislikes. Credibility is key in this sort of thing and without it, all of it is rendered useless. Your TA comments regarding Philadelphia hotels and tourist... More

We and friends stayed at this well-located smartly designed hotel near the riverfront. We especially liked the decoration of the lobby. It is walking distance from all the historic sights as well as Chinatown and the South Street entertainment district. The staff was friendly and the rooms were large for a center city hotel. There are bars and restaurants nearby.... More

Dear LWL3333, Thank you for taking the time to review our hotel. We first want to apologize for the interrupted night of sleep. Even though the work was not a direct effect of the hotel we are distraught that it had to affect your time with us. We will work on improving the breakfast in the club lounge, even if... More

I got a good deal on this hotel through a discounted "bidding" like website, which was about 35% blow retail. Full retail is not worth the value for this hotel - and my rating is scored assuming you pay the discounted rate. The upsides of this Sheraton are the beds and bedding - which are fantastic. Down feather pillows, high... More

Great location near historic district and Chestnut Street shopping. Clean, tastefully decorated, well appointed, quiet room though a long haul from the elevators. Large fitness center. Parking was too expensive.

It depends on where you want to stay in the city, but I liked the walkability of hotel. It is close to many restaurants and old city attractions. There was a clean room (comfy bed, nice coffee), nice indoor pool,valet parking, and nice size lounge on the first floor. The prices are comparable to the area. The staff was professional.

We stayed just one night for a wedding being held in Northern Liberties. Given the hotel's location in Society Hill (Olde City) it was the most convenient location. We are also Starwood members and booked using points. Check in was easy. The room was sufficient and clean. Checkout was equally simple. All-in-all a very nice short stay.

The Sheraton Society Hill exceeded expectations in providing a setting quite apart from the bustle of the inner city. The setting was garden-like and quite enjoyable. The staff was accommodating in every way, and went out of their way to be helpful.

We were going to a business dinner in Society Hill and our hosts booked us into the Sheraton. It is in the historic district, meaning that the road to approach it is made of cobblestones which apparently were used as ballast for ships sailing from Europe. Anyway the Hotel is modern and has full facilities such as a swimming pool... More

We had a perfect overnight stay at the Sheraton Philadelphia Society Hill. The location couldn't be better. It's right on the edge of the restaurants, nightlife and shopping, but it doesn't share the noise or the scent of the City. Rather, it feels tucked into a garden-like setting. It's also incredibly close to a number of historical sites. The Club... More
