"Great for large groups who want to stick together.... My favorite part of the complex is the indoor pool, which overlooks the river and a dock full of old seafaring vessels." Full review

Art Deco-themed rooms offer stupendous views of the riverfront or city, but traffic noise does percolate up, so choose a river-view room if quiet is important to you.

"There are "no bad views from any room" at this "top-shelf" hotel overlooking the Delaware River and Penn's Landing, but some gripe it's "a little far from the action"."

"Sitting on the shores of the Delaware River, the Hyatt Regency Penn’s Landing affords spectacular views from many of its rooms."

"The Crowne Plaza offers solid, generic, well-located, business-traveler-oriented accommodations. It's popular with conventioneers and relocating executives." Full review

"This strong second-tier dynamo has been reworked with a colorful modern style that puts it right in between more service-oriented Sofitel and the smaller, fashion-conscious Le Meridien. " Full review
