Study at University City

Philadelphia


This snazzy hotel is right smack in the middle of everything University City has to offer. Rooms sport contemporary design and are spacious, as is the lobby, which functions as a common area where people meet, read, chat and work. You can grab breakfast at the attached stylish restaurant and lounge.

The brass spectacles outside fit the 'study' theme. Parts of the lobby have museum-quality works of art on display.
