The Morris House is a unique hotel. Just around the corner from Independence Hall, we were in walking distance to the historical museums and parks. Plenty of eating establishments nearby as well. Our car never left the convenient parking garage across the street, and we received a discount by staying at the Morris House to boot! The hotel is a great value, and the staff was wonderful.

The water was extremely hot and it’s pretty quiet in the room minus the vibration of the subway underfoot. The breakfast was cute! Muffins, coffee cake, cereal, yogurt, fresh fruit, English muffins, an assortment of Tea plenty of hot water and coffee and a few other things. All of the staff is very attentive! They offered to help us with our bags which was not necessary but we were thankful! Parking is across from the hotel and it was $48 for 24 hours. It was a very easy and beautiful experience! Highly recommend!

When we arrived, someone else had signed for our room and it had been given to them. The paper that had been signed had my name on it but someone else’s signature. I am unsure how this was able to happen when two forms of identification are needed to check in. They were unable to reassure me as to the security of my information. However, they did provide us with an upgraded room, which was a process that took about a half an hour while we were made to wait in the lobby until after 11pm. I didn’t feel like the proprietor really took much responsibility for their mistake, or for making us wait, and their tone toward us made us feel somewhat unwelcome. With all the other options for accommodations in Philly, I would not stay here again.

The Morris House Hotel is a gem in Philadelphia. It's rich with history, and you will feel like you stepped into the late 1700s when you are here, but with the amenities of the 21st century. Jerry and Alejandro made us feel at home. Their continental breakfast is sufficient to fuel for the day, complete with coffee, tea, milk, juice, yogurt, muffins, oatmeal, and boiled eggs. Perhaps one of the greatest benefits is that it's walking distance from the Independence Historic Park area, which was the main reason for our visit to Philly. The rooms are large with ample space. I called ahead to request a welcome gift for my husband for his birthday, and Jerry exceeded my expectations with a beautiful cheese tray. We are very happy and hope to return soon.

I had a lengthy conversation their desk person, but later the same person called and were unaware I had checked out over two hours earlier. Please do not charge me the $250 late checkout fee.

My husband and I had stayed in Philadelphia before, but our experiences were just average. Our recent stay at the Morris House, however, was exceptional! From the moment we stepped through the gates and were greeted by Jerry (who is absolutely awesome, by the way), we knew we were in for a special experience. Everything about our stay was exceptional, from the delicious morning breakfast to the delightful afternoon tea time. The attention to detail and the warm hospitality truly made a difference. I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else in Philly. We're already looking forward to coming back!
