Kimpton Hotel Monaco, Philadelphia

It’s beautiful and the location is great.

It’s an old buildings and it gets very humid.

Great location to be a tourist in the Old Town with everything at your doorstep, literally across the road to Independence Hall.

Not a lot, the front entrance on the weekend was a mad house which could do with better organisation but reception staff were great and their wine tasting from 4-6 pm a nice surprise.

Comfortable room, good facilities

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms had a classic elegance and charm that gave the place a timeless feel. Everything was exceptionally clean, and it’s clear the staff takes pride in maintaining the space. The staff was also incredibly helpful, friendly, and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The breakfast in the morning was spot on with a great variety of fresh options and a perfect start to the day. Highly recommend if you're looking for comfort with a touch of old-world class.

If I had to point out one downside, it would be the mattresses. They were a bit stiff and left me with a sore back in the morning. That said, it wouldn’t stop me from staying here again, given how great everything else was.

Good location

Parking is pricey

The Kimpton Hotel experience is uniformly very good, and the Kimpton Hotel Monaco was no exception. The staff in particular made this experience exceptional as our room was ready and they allowed us to check in early. The location of the hotel and view of Independence Hall from the room itself all made for a great experience.

It would be ideal not to have to pay additional for water in the room. It is, however, available in the lobby.

Location was excellent. Hotel/room decor and appearance were very nice.

The room was amazingly designed. The Bed was comfortable. The bathtub was fantastic 👏🏽! My favorite part of the room. The room service was good as well as the food. My views were gorgeous.

The TV was acting a little wonky and hard to use. The toilet was running a lot too.

Great location. Lovely decor. Liked the free wine each evening.

Some of the fittings in the room were a bit tired (broken edges on the bathroom mirror, broken corners on the desk etc). The roof terrace was more like a night club - we couldn’t get on to it.

Great location. Best breakfast ever.

Hotel didn't receive payment through Booking.com. Staff didn't do the slightest effort to check what went wrong, instead they charged me again and told me to solve it out with Booking.com. I would have appreciated at least some effort, as I have provided payment evidence.

Gorgeous hotel, Friendly staff. We were offered complementary wine and champagne, which was nice.

Everything!!

Absolutely nothing

The room was comfortable but a little dated. The mattresses were firm and comfortable. Housekeeping did a good job of cleaning our room. The location of the hotel was excellent for visiting the historical sites in Philadelphia. We really enjoyed The Red Fox Tavern (restaurant associated with the hotel). We had breakfast at the hotel every morning along with several dinners. Good menu and very hospitable service. I would definitely stay here again if visiting Philadelphia.

The uniqueness of the hotel.

Staff was outstanding

Everything such a beautiful hotel.😎

Nothing everything is great including the staff.😎

It was clean and quiet. All staff was very friendly.

Great location. We were close to everything.

The Kimpton Hotel was the perfect location for my wife and me. We are right across the street from the most important historical landmark in our country's history. It was my first time in Philly and I loved it. Thank you!

Great location by Liberty Bell & Independence Hall. Red Owl Restaurant. Close to subway. Excellent service.

Dog friendly. Awesome location

A great location and a very comfortable hotel to stay in. Breakfast was excellent.

The clock tower bell dinging every hour.

Loved the decor and the pub next door.

Nothiing

Location and room itself and its view

Quiet, very clean, very helpful staff and within walking distance of all the historical sites we wanted to see.

I liked everything

We were upgraded to a suite because we were Welsh. An unexpected and delightful experience. We were also given two tickets each for drinks at the bar. Again - a really special touch. The breakfast was excellent and good value. Exceptional hotel ideally located for the historical sites .

Nothing - it was great .

the staff was exceedingly amazing. sincerely one of the best customer service and hospitality visitsI have ever encountered. complimentary, accomodating, efficient, helpful, cheerful, and polite.

coffee in room or lobby *byt the cafe was lovely and more than made up for it*

Front desk Kaylee and the other beautiful girl were so nice! So sweet when I was having a hard time. Such an amazing hotel! Thanks girls

Great location very accommodating staff very pretty lobby comfortable rooms, love social hour, and the chessboard

Carpet could use an upgrade

Location. Friendly staff. On site restaurant.

Elevator issues

The bed was comfortable and I got a great night's sleep every night I was there.

The decor was stunning, but in the bedroom, it was a bit busy; lots of patterns. That said, it was impeccably decorated.

Location cannot be beat for historic tourism. Beautiful property with happy, helpful staff.

Couldn’t get the shower water to warm up Jo matter how we oriented the knob or how long we let it run.

Everything!

Excellent location. Very comfortable room, although I would have appreciated tea and coffee making facilities.

Restaurant overcrowded during breakfast at the weekend.

Great location

Location location location I loved getting text messages that weren’t intrusive or too much just checking in how things were going Friendly staff good coffee in the mornings

We loved it all. Hubby would have liked a coffee machine in the room

We had an amazing stay at the Kimpton Hotel Monaco Philadelphia. The location couldn’t be better—right across from Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell, and within easy walking distance to so many top attractions and great restaurants. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Philadelphia. We’ll definitely be back!

Fabulous decor and ambiance

It was perfect!!

Location is so convenient!! Hotel decoration is amazing!

parking is too expensive.

The location , food and drinks at the Red Owl.

We chose the Kimpton because of how central it was in the historic district and it did not disappoint! We also chose this particular chain because of how pet friendly they are. The staff were beyond loving to our dog, which made the trip that much better. Everyone from the front desk, to the porters, to the maintenance staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. Truly give these people all the raises!

Only half the elevators were working when we stayed, which meant it took forever to get up and down from the room. One time I think we waited for over 5 minutes for one. For the price we are paying, I would expect everything to at least be working properly.

The location was perfect, the staff were helpful since we are elderly, the bed was great.

Three of our five nights I woke early and went to the lobby to read. The night guard came in and told another woman and myself that the lobby was closed. I said, closed? He then asked if I was staying in the hotel and both she and I answered yes and he left. The following morning he came in and went to sleep on the couch as I was reading. I do not mind that he wanted to sleep, but to ask a guest to leave so he could sleep is not cool.

This hotel has a fantastic location right in the heart of the old city. There was a friendly welcome by front desk staff and we made it just in time for a complimentary glass of wine served between 5-6pm in the lovely reception area. Our Room was tastefully decorated with everything we needed for our short stay.

Perfect location for visiting the historical parts of Philadelphia. So many restaurants nearby. Our room was clean and quiet. The room was small but it was enough for the two of us. The complimentary coffee in the lobby was quite good for hotel coffee. We would definitely stay again.

The room was nice and clean. The location of the hotel was amazing. In the middle of everything.

none to note.

The location of this property was perfect! We could see independence hall out of the window in our room. The only downside to that is that the bells woke us up a couple of times in the middle of the night. There were two double decker bus stops right outside the hotel and many sites were within walking distance of the hotel. The bathroom was very clean but small. All in all I would stay here again in the future.

The hotel has a very cool eclectic vibe. Check in and out was easy and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room had all the amenities we needed, including an iron and ironing board. The bed was very comfortable plus the room was very quiet so we slept great! We didn’t eat at the restaurant but had a night cap at the bar and it was great.

The staff was great especially Lasha from housekeeping. She made us feel very welcomed. Enjoyed the decor.

What an amazing location, and what a hip gorgeous hotel! Has a great restaurant as well and our pups were made extra comfortable, being greeted with treats. Full service hotel. Loved this place!

Comfortable Bed. Quiet

Parking was not good.

Great decor, spacious room with great beds, great location, nice lobby, nice staff
