"For me personally, this hotel fit exavtly what i needed and was better in price compared to other hotels in the area. The room was much larger than anticipated.

How can I get cheap hotels in Philadelphia?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in Philadelphia

If you're looking to travel to Philadelphia on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $66. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $179. Staying a short amount of time in Philadelphia is an effective way to reduce hotel costs.
When you cut your vacation down to just a few days, you don't have to worry as much about hotel prices since you don't have that many nights to stay. For budget hotels in Philadelphia, 3 to 4 days should be all the nights you need. That's generally enough to enjoy the city's top attractions, though there's certainly enough to do to warrant a week-long trip.
When booking cheap hotel rooms in Philadelphia, it's typically best to book about 3 weeks in advance. Book further in advance than that and you could be paying too much for your room, as hotels will often overestimate future demand. However, if you wait too long, you might find that the hotel has been completely booked.
When you utilize search filters on Expedia, you'll be able to narrow down your results in a flash. These search filters cover a wide variety of factors you may be interested in when it comes to finding a cheap hotel in Philadelphia, including amenities such as Free Breakfast, 2-star rating, or proximity to local attractions. You can even set filters for price limits to ensure that all the displayed results are within your budget.

DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Center City

Birthday weekend

"Parking garage right next to hotel, check in was easy and the service was outstanding. Our room (high floor) wasn't a jaw dropping view, but the room was spacious with a large corner window. All staff were courteous and helpful, only negative was the hotel bar. Drinks were made incorrectly or not made as ordered, but service was great. Would definitely stay here again."

softest towels ever

"Softest towels of any hotel ever. however the front automatic door opens and closes so slowly as to be more than an annoyance, it's a hazard. We were only in the room 8 hours but it was clean and what we needed to be close to the event we attended. If you ever are attending a temple graduation stay here and take the subway. much more efficient! hot water took a while to make it to the 25th floor but the view was great. Reasonably quick elevators and plenty of them. I parked 2 blocks away under macys which is self park and half the price of the valet at the hotel. "
