Overall Ratings & Reviews The Notary Hotel, Philadelphia, Autograph Collection by Marriott

We loved the Notary! The room was clean and modern. The one thing I would say its the toiletries were outdated. However the convenience, location and the quietness in the room is perfect. Valet parking is an option but you can self park and its much cheaper. The breakfast options were limited and the espresso machine was broken the time we went but the regular coffee was delicious. Their cocktails were amazing! Bathrooms were clean and great customers service.

Poor customer service

I was surprised by this hotel. It's a 100 year structure but is in fantastic shape. The period furniture really set off the updated bathrooms, etc. The bar was inviting, as was the breakfast area. And the location was great - walkable to so many restaurants and areas of interest. I plan to stay there again when I'm back in Philly.

Beautiful, comfortable hotel with a fascinating history. We were thrilled with our stay. The only problem we had, of course, was the cost of parking! Thanks to the Notary Hotel staff for all they did to make our stay extraordinary.

It is an affordable, clean and comfortable spot in the heart of downtown.

The lobby was gorgeous. Nice gym as well

Very good hotel in a convenient central location

The building and the theme is beautiful, and the staff was super helpful and nice. I just was not impressed by the room at all. There were stains all over the bathroom walls, some looked permanent and others looked like grease, and my white socks turned brown walking on the carpet. I honestly blame the fact that it is a corporate owned property, not the housekeeping staff - they are very lovely and helpful. Just wanted more for how expensive it can be!

Great service

Perfect location, charming hotel

Three night stay over a weekend, family trip. Two adults and two teens. The hotel was packed due to multiple events in town (Club World Cup, New Balance Outdoor Track Nationals, Lacrosse tournament, Phillies home game, and summer vacations). Room was mostly comfortable to be in over the stay. The beds left something to be desired with mildly uncomfortable spring mattresses. Bathroom was nice size but cleaning crew missed cleaning the shower area thoroughly (a bit of hair still on shower wall). Nothing to ruin the trip. Location is perfect and right in the middle of center city with public transportation across the street and most historical attractions within a short walk.

2h waiting to get my car, all the days. Not recommended hotel!!!

Terrible check in. Stayed at a bunch of hotels and this is by far the worst.

Great location! The only recommendation is for the front desk to specify the timing of the free beverage. Also, Hotels.com should specify that the daily resort fee will be taxed.

Quite

The hotel has a great ambiance and is uniquely decorated consistent with the building's original use, with sculptures made of books and library reading tables in the lobby. The rooms are very comfortable. The neighborhood is very walkable, though a little sketchy at night. The staff is very helpful and pleasant. I do agree with another reviewer that ther rooms could be better insulated from noise. We would stay here again.

Beautiful, historic and in the very heart of Center City.

The staff was very nice and the hotel itself was excellent

Stay was ok except for the construction and constant jackhammering right outside my window. Would have been nice to know about this in advance.

This property was actually pretty amazing. We went down there for the Philadelphia super bowl party and after party. Hotel was great. Food was great. The room was amazing.
