Excellent location with great facilities and service, highly recommended!

Room was nice and neat. Very spacious. Location was great. The only downside is that they don’t have free WiFi, which is kinda disappointing in this generation.

Not a good cleaning other stuff
29.07.2025 Guest
Not impressed, should have 3 stars at most. Terrible front desk check-in service, severely understaffed, painfully long wait times. Waited until 6pm (official check-in time is 4pm) to get a phone call about a booked room becoming available. Had to stand in 30 min line to get room keys after I was already checked-in earlier after standing in a similar line. Housekeeping couldn't keep up with cleaning as they clearly need more workers. Room was very cozy nice and clean, however the AC was a bit annoying, either freezing cold dry air at 70F or blowing hot wet air if set for 72F, shower water pressure was weak. Facilities provide only-option Valet Parking for nearly $59 per 24hrs plus Philadelphia parking tax +22.5%, Self-park multi-story parking garage across the street is same price though. Downtown Center neighborhood and across the street (7-Eleven entrance) camped by homeless people begging for change.

This hotel is situated in a great area, across from Reading Market and everything is conveniently at walking distance. I would've given an overall 5 stars but our room was adjacent to the elevator shaft and literally heard the elevator going up and down. Good thing we only stayed for two nights, and when I complained about the room noise situation, the only answer that was provided to me from the front desk was that I should've asked for a quieter room when I first checked in? Like really...? The elevator shaft noise is an option that you have to let the staff know that you don't want when you check in. C'mon Marriott you can do better.

But just to add, our housekeeper was very accommodating and extremely friendly!

The hotel's right in the middle of everything, which is great. The rooms are modern, which is good. Unfortunately, the 4,000 person conference here this weekend is clogging the elevators and on site restaurant.

There's been 10-15 min waits for the elevator on the 13th Street side. There was a 15-20 wait to be seated for the buffet brunch at 13.

It's probably not always like this, but the chaotic environment and long waits have been kinda frustrating. If you don't need all the services, the Residence Inn and Courtyard are around the corner.

Super nice hotel with a great location right near the market. Other restaurants are nearby, as is the convention center. Great lobby and social meeting area. The room was nice and special thanks to Fajah for ensuring I had a room with a view. Fajah was very professional and laughed at my dumb jokes I used to relax myself after dealing with foot and vehicle traffic to get to the hotel. Highly recommend this location. Be well!
16.05.2025 The
It's in a good location there are many restaurants in walking distance but there is no parking unless you pay almost $100.00 a day which is CRAZY but you have no other choice so we went ahead and used the vallet parking and were told to call 15 min ahead to get our car when leaving but when we tried to call down to get our car the line just rang and no one picked up.The staff was nice the first night we arrived (Saturday 2:30 shift) however staff at checkout Sunday morning was not very friendly especially the Valet staff...very rude and seemed bothered to be spoken to or help. The building seems nice and clean but we woke up with a BEDBUG on our pillow!!!!! So all is not what it seems. That was disgusting and blew it for me, I will never go back! Also the bed was horribly uncomfortable, the worst sleep I've had in a long time. I would not have even written a review except for the bedbug incident, but I feel like that's something I would want to be told.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!

I'm here generally once a week during the fall-spring for Bocce and it's by far my favorite Bar that we go to throughout the year. The Beer selection is pretty fantastic for a "center city" location, and the food is excellent, if a little on the pricier side for my commuter sensibilities.

But, what I really appreciate about this place is the friendliness of the staff. They're prompt and always willing to help. This week, when I needed to store flowers to surprise someone, they even offered to hold them for me so that the surprise would work well.

Census Bureau had their Christmas Party here twice, great service from our waitresses. Plus the food as part of the buffet was amazing. ???
21.11.2017 Andy
Basic sports bar. We went one night after the usual dinner rush. Was told that there was a half hour wait for tables even though we passed plenty of empty tables and booths as we walked around the enormous bar. Ended up eating at the bar. Food was good. Great beer selection. Very noisy.
26.10.2017 Stephanie
My husband and I recently hosted a "welcome drinks" event at the Field House the night before our wedding. Maura helped us with the different private event options, and she was great to work with and quick to respond. We ended up using the upstairs bar space, which worked out perfect for our group of about 30 people. They had a good beer selection, the bartender was great, it was a nice laid back vibe, and everyone enjoyed themselves. Would definitely recommend!
25.10.2017 Jeff
Located very close to convention center so maybe they had a tough week with a major convention in town, but seriously...the food and service here is below average. The wait staff are tired and uninterested. If you want a decent draft beer and want to watch your favorite team, this is an adequate choice but don't expect even average food and service.

Terrible. You can’t be a minor to be admitted entry. You have to have identification and be over 18. Doesn’t make sense it’s a god damn bowling alley. Your policy is garbage
01.01.2018 Lizbeth
The place was great, I personally enjoyed very much. I loved the customer service from the waitress. The only thing was the waiting time but i won’t take off a star because while I waited I had an amazing burger, delicious. Definitely going back.
21.12.2017 Amit
We had a team party at Lucky Strike and had great fun. Food was amazing. But our pro bowlers think that the lanes were not up to the mark and had oil all over.
30.11.2017 Dmitry
This place is huge, especially for a bowling alley in the middle of a city. Modern equipment, clean, and we'll run. Can very busy, so pick a non prime time. The drink and food menu is decent too.
17.11.2017 Michael
Great food, first time there, so much fun. Hope the company brings us back next year ?
