My stay at the Holiday Inn Express was wonderful. The staff was friendly and answered any questioned I had. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. Breakfast was warm and delicious, with several items to chose from. It was walkable to everything I wanted to see while visiting Philadelphia. The river view was the icing on the cake. I would definitely stay again if I'm in the area. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a great affordable hotel.

Super clean. Great location! Right on the water. Across the street from Dave and Buster’s. About 15-20 min from Lincoln field. Hotel security was great. You need a key to get in and out of the parking lot, into the property and into the elevator. Would def stay again!

Breakfast was great! Sleeping, not so much. The street traffic was so loud, I could hear people in the hotel way too well, it was just a loud experience. The shower was fantastic but the toilet had to be talked into flushing. There was a creepy carpet stain I don’t want to imagine. Oh and up front fees not disclosed, which was great on a budget. No thanks.
