    My stay at the Morris House exceeded my expectations and I would recommend to all!

    I cannot think of anything that could have been improved. For travelers expecting shiny and plastics perhaps it would not be the wonderful hotel I think it is but I enjoyed the beautifully renovated very old space.

    Everything met my expectations; from the perfect location to walk to many attractions, to the ease of accessing public transportation, to the quiet yet attentive service, to the comfortable beds, to the excellent food in the restaurant, to the feeling of safety in a big city for a woman traveling alone and the historical value of a few nights in a place where much of our early political brouhahas began.

    The Morris House Hotel is more than a comfortable, totally centrally located hotel in Philly. From the first moment you enter the hotel, you are greeted by a charming, helpful, very experienced, extremely friendly and always positive management. The historical background of the house invites you to find out more. You feel warmly welcomed as if in a family community. The rooms are tastefully decorated with a love of authenticity. Having stayed there for more than just a few days, I can recommend this hotel with pleasure and conviction.

    Not much choice for breakfast which was rather disappointing.

    Lovely old hotel very close to all the sights. All the staff were nice and friendly and very helpful suggesting places to visit. The bedroom was very cosy and quiet, despite being on the roadside.

    Historic Philadelphia's Morris House is beautiful, clean, comfortable, and accommodating. Perfection

    Being multi-century buildings there were the to-be-expected narrow hallways and long, steepish staircases. My wife and I are hardy, so not too much of a bother. I think some accommodations are on the first floor if you are not able or want to climb the staircase(s).

    Arrived late, many restaurants (and shops) in the area. The bar at the Hotel looked excellent. But decided to walk a block north to Washington Square and found a wonderful restaurant. The Washington Square area oozes American history. Felt so lucky to have stayed at the Morris House. Will definitely stay there again when in Philadelphia.

    The continental breakfast could be dramatically improved with the addition of muesli, an assortment of dried fruits and nuts, and soy or almond milk.

    I loved the building, the interior decor, and the personal attention from the staff.

    The hotel was incredibly charming and the historic restoration does not go unnoticed. The room was very comfortable as well as the lounge areas throughout the first floor. Very central to many attractions tho we were mainly there for the convention center. We ate at high street Cafe and di Bruno every Day we were there for snacks or lunch.
