Frommer's "The Crowne Plaza offers solid, generic, well-located, business-traveler-oriented accommodations. It's popular with conventioneers and relocating executives." Full review
Star Service "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
Gayot "Sonesta Hotel Philadelphia offers a reliable home-away-from-home experience in a convenient location in the heart of downtown Philadelphia."
