Their off-site incommunicado management could have a nice hotel if they did some work like setting mouse traps. more on TravelPost.com

I stayed here in October with my girlfriend. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Our room was clean, basic but comfortable and had great wifi and tv. The hotel is located in the perfect spot, reall ... more on TripAdvisor

We arrived being less than impressed with the overall exterior presentation of the facilities (very "ho-hum") That was quickly forgotten when we discovered all the perks of this 12 room inn. 1st, exce ... more on TripAdvisor

We arrived at the hotel mid afternoon and check in was quick and easy, staff were polite and friendly, as they were throughout the whole stay. Our room was small but big enough, there was plenty of st ... more on TripAdvisor

Wonderful, quirky, atmospheric little hotel in the right part of town. It feels like something carved out of a 200-year-old office building, and probably is. Free wifi, and a first-rate bar/bistro dow ... more on TripAdvisor

I would recomend the society hill hotel to anyone looking for a clean room in a great area of town. The room was cozy, and very tidy. We checked in after office hours, but someone was there to persona ... more on TripAdvisor

Funky hotel. No elevator and heavy luggage are not a good combination. You check in at the bar (which was very nice and good food)as there are no obvious staff. Breakfast delivered each morning as promised, basic but good. Rooms a ... more on Yahoo! Travel

While the location of the hotel was great, I would not stay there again nor would I recommend the hotel to others. The description of the hotel made it sound very quaint including the mention of fresh flowers in the room. There were ... more on Yahoo! Travel

The Society Hill Hotel in Philadelphia lacks customer service. We found 2 mice in the room, right before going to sleep. It was very difficult to find some rest thinking that we might be awakened by more mice. Fortunately, in a combined ... more on Yahoo! Travel

I'm from the philadelphia area so when I booked the hotel I knew it was in a good location, however I found out that location isn't everything. There is no manager or owner to be found. You must rely on bar staff below for any problems. ... more on Yahoo! Travel

This could have been a great B and B near the Liberty Bell in historic Philly. Instead, it was among the worst hotel experiences I have ever had. The owner/operator rarely answers the phones, the 'renovation'consists of slapping ... more on Yahoo! Travel

Sharon and Ana, the inn keepers are great. Loads of history at Society Hill Hotel and a perfect spot from which to embark on all of Philadelphia's historic sites. Reasonable room rates, fresh continental breakfast, and a great ... more on BedAndBreakfast.com

Probably the best value in Old City. Be certain - its not the Ritz, however, if you are looking for a small hotel / B&B that is very reasonable, has friendly staff, a great restaurant and bar, and is dead center in the middle ... more on BedAndBreakfast.com

We have stayed there before and it is always an interesting experience. Not much in amenities but we were there to see Philly and not hang out in a hotel room. The breakfast was standard muffins, bagels, coffee and such. The real ... more on BedAndBreakfast.com
