It's my home away from home. I usually go there for business, but it is also perfect for finding a place where you watch the Eagles on a big screen with a crowd of well behaved fans.

My anniversary is on Valentine's Day, which, this year was a long weekend with President's Day on Monday. The location of this hotel was perfect for a winter weekend trip to Philadelphia -- we loved being across from the American Revolutionary Museum, cookie hour, hot chocolate and warm inviting atmosphere at Independence Park Hotel. Great breakfast buffet with friendly staff. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect hotel and area to stay in, was in the center of many historical sites and museums that we wanted to visit. Very walkable. Also many great dining options to choose from. The staff here were so nice and accommodating. Our room was quaint and also quiet considering it was a fairly busy area.
