We’ll be back!
We are here for a medical appointment. Crazy trip into Phillie but the stag here is phenomenal! Only issue is parking. I chose not to have valet parking but now have unanswered questions on how to pay for the parking at the lot when we leave. Wish the staff had mentioned at checkin the actual cost of valet parking and all the benefits.

Perfect place near UPenn
I needed a place to stay while my husband had a procedure at the university of Penn. It was a short walk from the hospital. They had a restaurant attached to the hotel. It was closed for a private event, but they were able to send food to the room. It was delicious.

Happy Thanksgiving
Amazing peaceful neighborhood. We stayed on Wednesday night so that we could see the Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day parade. My only issue was parking. We used a neighboring garage and the doors were on the opposite side of hotel. By no means not hotels fault. Just a heads up to others for there stay. Maybe use valet parking

8/10 Very good

Very nice
Really nice property conveniently located. A couple of quirks: rooms don’t generally have coffeemakers so you have to request them. And there were miscommunications around that. Also no ice bucket in room, you have to go request one in the restaurant. Also not clear on check in if there is a gym available. I got the impression that folks who stay there are either with conferences that are organizing everything for them, or that they stay there often. Anyway. All the staff are lovely.

The Study is beautiful and the staff are amazing! This hotel is less than five minutes walk to my daughter’s dorm at Drexel University. We didn’t rent a car so Drexel staff helped us move by using one of their golf carts. Drexel staff drove the golf cart of course. It was very convenient for us to stay here. The bus stop and the metro are walking distance as well if you want to explore Philly.
