Top Smith Memorial Arch Hotel Reviews

Element by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Only stayed one night here was amazing cleaning very nice. Definitely would stay again."

The Windsor Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Having a kitchenette in one's room is a God-send even for only 3 days! Such a difference to be able to have cold beverages on hand or to re-heat delicious left-overs conveniently. Lots of table as well as as desk space and ample room to walk around the room containing a King-sized bed. If the summer AC is too much there wasn't a method to turn if off save for turning off everything which worked for me! From the 12th floor there is a lovely view of the Logan Plaza with the fountain&those orange umbrellas. An absolutely convenient location to mass transit and there are 2 restaurants on either side of the hotel lobby!"
