Dwight D Hotel

Philadelphia


Occupying a historic brownstone, this hotel is in a great central location and offers upscale guesthouse-type rooms (eight in total, all different in their design) at an affordable price. It feels intimate and large groups may want to consider renting the entire property, which sleeps up to 18.
