Wish we stayed longer...
We spent one night and as we were leaving my partner said he wished we were staying for 3+ nights or having friends over because it was such a cool spot!

Area of the city isn’t my favorite, had to walk past a lot of trash and sketch people. Appreciated having private secure parking (it’s tight!!!!), and it was walking distance from the concert venue. The place was immaculate, beautifully designed, building felt very safe, never saw or heard another person. Would definitely stay again!!

Super clean and comfy
Ok first of all, the room was very very clean when I came, and the kitchen as well. They got every basic tools that you need for the kitchen which I love the most. But the only very small thing i want the hotel to add on is the TV ( just for entertainment ). Also their private parking i don’t know where it is and I try to call and contact but I didn’t receive any information about it. But it’s not a big deal, hope they can put parking information more specific in their website. Otherwise this hotel was beautiful including the views, the room and the cleanliness. I’ll love to stay again!

quick stay at the hive room but it was perfect for what we needed! we walked to our concert at Franklin Music Hall and it felt safe! Easy entry upon arrival, everything was clean, bed comfortable. Day before we arrived, they reached out to see if we needed anything. Easy check out the next day and walked to Cafe Lift for an amazingly delicious breakfast. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to Philly!

On a quiet street close to coffee shops and restaurants. Near Chinatown, which I liked to explore. Convenient location to get around. The place was spacious and clean. There are no lobby restrooms but there is a luggage storage if you need.

Great room with a great price!
Our stay at the Kestrel Hotel in Philly was great! The room was super clean and cute! The owners responded to my questions very quickly and made any instructions on access tot he room very easy to understand. It was also nice to have a luggage drop off room to store our bags before we could get into our room. Definitely going to stay here again!!!

Windows need thicker shades that block light since it was difficult to sleep with the sheer drapes that let light through.
