La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Philadelphia Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Everything went great! We stayed the night and I slept like a baby—thanks so much!"

Waterfront Inn PHL Airport

8/10 Good

"The room was clean. The property felt safe. The river view was excellent. There are no recreational amenities besides the airport shuttle. This is an older motel style. There is a park adjacent to the building that has benches and walking trails. I only needed a place to rest, so it fit my need."
