My stay at the Kimpton Hotel Palomar in Philadelphia was truly enjoyable, highlighted by the exemplary accommodation in a spacious one-bedroom suite. While I appreciated the craft cocktails during happy hour, the limited options brought some disappointment. The staff were friendly and responsive, although the elevator service could use improvement, as I experienced some long waits during my stay. Overall, it was a worthwhile splurge with a few minor drawbacks. 😊

My stay at Kimpton Hotel Palomar Philadelphia was quite enjoyable, though there were a few notable issues. The location was fantastic, with easy access to restaurants and attractions, and my room offered a beautiful city view. However, I experienced some noise disturbances due to connecting doors and had issues with dim lighting in the lobby area. Overall, it was a solid choice, but improvements are needed in a few areas.
