Frommer's "Great for large groups who want to stick together.... My favorite part of the complex is the indoor pool, which overlooks the river and a dock full of old seafaring vessels." Full review

Art Deco-themed rooms offer stupendous views of the riverfront or city, but traffic noise does percolate up, so choose a river-view room if quiet is important to you.
DK Eyewitness "This upscale property on Penn’s Landing is Philadelphia’s only waterfront hotel."

"There are "no bad views from any room" at this "top-shelf" hotel overlooking the Delaware River and Penn's Landing, but some gripe it's "a little far from the action"."
Star Service "Located just off Race Street, this remains the only waterfront hotel in the area, a foreboding 22-story limestone tower that rises from the shore like a miniature Empire State Building. " Full review
Gayot "Sitting on the shores of the Delaware River, the Hyatt Regency Pennâs Landing affords spectacular views from many of its rooms."
Fodor's "Contemporary, well-sized guest rooms feature iPod docks and safes that can fit–and charge–laptops." Full review

Fodor's "Opened in late-2012, Hotel Monaco offers style, sass, and LEED certification in the heart of the Philly's historic center, along with the beloved perks of the Kimpton brand." Full review
Star Service "Strutting its stuff like a peacock on parade, this is hands-down one of the cleverest and most colorful concept hotels in the city." Full review
Gayot "For visitors who wish to be close to historic American attractions such as Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell and the Betsy Ross House, the Hotel Monaco offers plenty of style."
Zagat "Opened in 2012, this boutique features a location next to Independence Hall, a rooftop bar and lounge, and rooms with historically inspired design mixed with modern elements."
Travel + Leisure "Located in Center City, this Kimpton property sits conveniently near historic sites such as Independence Hall and features a rooftop lounge overlooking Liberty Bell Center." Full review
Afar Magazine "Furnishings range from glossy red armoires to black lacquered bookshelves to mirrored end tables, to bonded leather headboards; picture windows are draped with bold blue and gold drapery." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Hotel Monaco — a cobblestone’s throw from Philadelphia’s historic attractions — is a layer cake of whimsical furnishings and audacious colours baked in the mould of an early-20th-century bank building." Full review
Jetsetter "Smack-dab central sleep opposite the Liberty Bell, with designer digs, a gourmet steakhouse and a rooftop bar." Full review
Bon Appétit "Location, location, location." Full review
Time Out "Another Kimpton property, Hotel Monaco features the charming mix of history and modern attention to detail that have come to define the chain." Full review

Make sure to take a trip up to the Stratus Rooftop Lounge—one of the best rooftop bars Philadelphia has to offer—to relax after sunset with an aperitif under the twinkling night sky.
