The room was nice- no problems with smell, cleanliness, bugs or any of that. There was no fridge in the room and no real extra perks. It was just a good room. We had no issues with noise. The parking was a daily fee, and we pulled in at 10 pm, but then we had to pull out by 6... More

We are writing about our recent stay with the Sheraton Downtown. We had great service at the check-in, being helped by Richard Utsey. Richard was fantastic, and answered all of our questions and helped solve problems. The Sheraton is clean, professional, and perfect for any occasion! A great place to stay while exploring the City of Brotherly Love!

IF YOU ARE GOING FOR A CONFERENCE be aware the hotel is advertised "two blocks away" from the convention center. Which, in all fairness, is true. However, two blocks gets you to the back side corner of the convention center. Getting to the entrance requires another 2-3 block walk. Overall it's around 15 minutes (which is fine except when it...

I stayed here for 2 nights as part of a conference. The facility was not very clean. The hallway carpets were dirty with room service trays with food and trash. The room needed to be vacuumed as well. Self-parking was $38/night! As a conference center, the food wasn't great, nor were the bathroom facilities which were tucked away in the... More

This was my first time staying in Philly. Easy location to get to and check was pretty quick with friendly staff behind the desk. Our room was on 21st floor, which was fine because the elevators run pretty quickly. Room was nicely decorated and kept well. Bed was a bit too soft as were pillows that my head sank into... More

This is your typical business-class Sheraton. The beds are good as you would expect. My room was pre-paid through Travelocity. But the hotel charged my credit card the full rate. After eleven (11) calls and voice mails to folks in accounting and personally speaking a hotel manager (Marcus Slater) three times, who promised to personally take care of the credit... More

This hotel was a nice play to stay in a good area. Staff friendly and helpful. There was no wifi in room but available computers in the lobby for printing etc. Can walk to most things. Room was great and tidy. Fairly good value for the price.

This Sheraton used to be the Wyndham. There was nothing impressive or overly offensive about our stay, but everything was just short of satisfactory. The room was tiny and had been doused with so much air freshener that it gave me a headache. WiFi was $12.50 per night for the fastest service and only 2.5 mbps, about what you get... More

We knew we would be checking in very late and called the hotel twice just to let them know. They were very friendly and reassuring on the phone. We had a wonderful room on the top floor with an incredible view. The room was large, looked like a recent renovation, and the bathroom was nicely appointed. Very clean room and... More

My husband and I stayed here for 2 night on the club level. The view from this floor is amazing. Room was clean, but I will say some places are in need of repair. This is a very large hotel - 26 floors, but despite that the elevators were fairly quick to come. All the people here were friendly and... More
