The Ramada Philadelphia Airport South was exactly what you'd expect -- a Ramada near an airport. It was nothing fancy, but it did the job -- we had a clean quiet room and didn't spend too much money. I was struck by the sunniness of the staff. Our party of four didn't have enough towels, but a quick request at... More

Bathroom was shabbu, tub-surround was comming detached from the wall in sections, surround itself was broen with pieces missing. Carptet clean, but no padding. Most exterior doors had paint chipped off. Breakfast was pretty good, no buffet, only off the menu. The staff though were friendly and welcoming. Beds were good. The hotel has not been remodled in 20+ years,... More

Granted, my opinion is clouded by having been booked here by the airline when I was stuck at PHL overnight since my incoming flight was delayed and I missed my connection. At first, waiting for the shuttle, I was puzzled because the minibus passed me twice while I was waiting at the airport arrivals stop ("Zone 4") so I called... More

I was teaching at a conference held at this hotel and stayed for the night. Supposedly this is a 3 star hotel but I would disagree (especially compared to the really nice 3 star hotel I stayed at the next night in MD). Being near the airport I suspect the hotel gets heavy use and it is badly in need... More

The furnishings are basic, no problem. It's in a decent location. Problem is with sound. On one side of my room I hear cars driving by on the highway and people talking in the parking lot. On the other side I hear music from some local nightclub/lounge. Next time, I'd pay the extra bucks and stay in a Hampton Inn More

The Ramada Airport Hotel in Essington PA (only 30 minutes from central Philly) was very nice and very accommodating. We attended a Navy Reunion there Sept 21-25, 2011. Only issue was the bar food and the service in the restaurant. Cook did not know how to make a Philly Cheesesteak! It was chopped meat, no cheese, peppers, etc. and served... More
