Location
If you're looking for a hotel in Philadelphia with an unbeatable location, look no further than the Kimpton Hotel Palomar. This hotel is situated in one of Philly's best districts within walking distance of most sights, surrounded by shops and restaurants and convenient to many city amenities. Guests love the great location, beautiful spot and center city pricing. The property is in a prime location and the views of the city are worth checking out. Even Independence Hall is just a short walk away. The only downside is that the area around the hotel can be dirty with trash in the alleys and some streets closed to travel, but with so many great restaurants, bars, shops and sites nearby, you won't want to stay cooped up in your room anyway. Plus, the atmosphere of the room is cozy and trendy and dogs are welcome. Just be prepared for a bit of a wait for the elevators, as the hotel only has three for all guests to use.
