Kimpton Hotel Monaco Philadelphia by IHG

It looked pretty

Small rooms

The building was huge and beautiful The room was spacious and the interior was very nice and modern I love the wallpaper in the restroom and the mirrors and comfortable bed. Everything was perfect for my stay

The valet parking was expensive compared to other boutique hotels I have stayed but the staff was friendly

We stayed here for a "mini-moon" right after our wedding and were blown away by the level of care and heart shown by the staff. The Kimpton Hotel Monaco is stunning, but the service is what makes it special. We arrived to a beautiful "Congratulations" sign in our room, which was such a thoughtful touch. A huge shout-out to Roshid and the front desk team for going the extra mile to check in on us and offer their well-wishes in person. When my wife’s allergies acted up, the housekeeping team responded immediately to ensure the room was perfectly comfortable for her—their speed and kindness were impressive. Beyond that, every inch of the hotel is spotless and well-kept. Don’t miss the wine hour at 5:00 PM; it’s a lovely treat! We will certainly be back.

From start to finish, everyone was amazing! Rachel at the front desk was really helpful with the reservation. Julian was our waiter at dinner and did a stellar job. Janae was our server at breakfast both mornings we were there and she was also just amazing. And Spiderman was fabulous in securing a cab for us when we were leaving. I look forward to returning!

We are locals that got displaced due to our neighbor's house catching fire (we live in a row home and took on smoke and water damage). We stayed here for a couple of nights until our insurance company found somewhere for us to rent while we repair our home. The Kimpton staff were so lovely and empathetic to our situation. They even had a goody basket waiting for us on check-in as they knew our situation. We even asked if we could check-in early because we have pets and had nowhere to go for the time being and they told us to come on over. Our room was clean and spacious with a mini fridge. The bathroom had a nice big countertop to really sprawl out on. The area is also really nice. This part of the city is super safe and full of history for any tourists reading this. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone traveling to Philly or needs a place to stay because of a disaster. Please enjoy the attached picture of my kitty enjoying her dinner with a view of Independence Hall 💕

Nothing!

We stayed here for 2 nights for a wedding. I want to mention the bell hop “Sage” who helped us with our bags at check in and check out was great! He was so helpful with giving recommendations and was very patient , polite, and went above and beyond making us comfortable. The valet parking was very slow. Over an hour wait and I actually had to walk 2 blocks to get my own car. Rooms were nice but slow drain in bathtub and broken lamp in room. Overall it was a nice place to stay.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “It’s a Dog’s Life” at Kimpton Hotel Monaco Philadelphia! From the moment we checked in, it was clear that this hotel truly rolls out the red carpet for both humans and their furry companions. It’s safe to say… this stay was absolutely paw-fect 🐾 One of the biggest highlights? Pet-friendly perks at no extra charge—and they accept any number of pets with no size or weight restrictions. That alone is a huge tail-wag! We already can’t wait to come back and bring our cat Marty along for our next stay. After checking in, we were welcomed with a cozy pet bed and food/water bowls already set up in our room—talk about VIP (Very Important Pup) treatment! Since we mentioned bringing our cat too, the amazing staff even had a litter box ready for Marty. That level of thoughtfulness deserves a round of a-paws. The hotel offers a truly “wagnificent” Bark Package, which made our stay even more special. It includes: A $25 donation to the National Trust for Historic Preservation A self-guided tour of Old City Doggie bags An exclusive dog bandana A pet care kit Location-wise, you couldn’t ask for better. The hotel sits right in the heart of Old City—just steps from Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. Bentley and I even had a front-row view from our window watching visitors line up for Independence Hall! There are also plenty of pet-friendly green spaces right across the street, making potty breaks super easy and convenient. Back inside, the hotel hosts a nightly happy hour (or should I say “yappy hour”) in the lobby—such a fun and social touch for both guests and their four-legged friends. In the mornings, complimentary coffee and tea are available, which was the perfect way to start the day. We also loved dining at Red Owl Tavern, located right off the lobby. It’s open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, offers outdoor seating, and is incredibly welcoming to pups—another big win for pet parents! Overall, if you’re looking for a stay where both you and your pets are treated like royalty, this is the place. At Kimpton Hotel Monaco Philadelphia, it truly is “a dog’s life”—and we can’t wait to come back for another paws-itively amazing visit 🐶🐾

My husband and I have traveled quite extensively over the years and we can earnestly say that there is no better customer experience than we recently enjoyed at the Monaco Philadelphia! We have stayed at the hotel on several prior occasions and the staff always has always got above and beyond to accommodate us .Each time, they have far exceeded our expectations! A special shout out to the incredible concierge, Rashid, who couldn't have been kinder, considerate or more attentive! We arrived to a room filled with a personal hand-written note, a beautiful fruit and cheese platter and assorted gifts arranged in a basket with a monogramed Kimpton fan! Incredibly, Rashid remembered our meeting 9 years ago and made sure that we would stay in the same room that we loved during that visit! We felt very welcomed and pampered! Rashid also willingly helped us with some logistical issues we had in planning a small birthday party at the hotel. Our evening began on the Hotel rooftop at the Stratus Lounge where our daughter and son-in-law first met and a year later (to the day) became engaged! With Diandra's help, we had a fabulous cocktail hour! Diandra is so energetic and fun- loving that it was a joy to work with her. With Breanna's help, we planned our party at the Monaco's Red Owl Restaurant. The manager Adam, with his capable assistant Missy, were both most accommodating and catered to our every need with the set-up and flawless service. We are grateful for the friendships we forged and look forward to returning to this first class hotel that boasts the most caring and welcoming staff! Kudos to the Monaco's General Manager, James Adamson. He has obviously put together a first class and remarkable team which ensures that guests always feel welcomed and valued while receiving amazing and impeccable service!

The hotel was fabulous in all aspects! I spoke with Rachel on the phone to advise of a delay in checking in due to my flight and she was amazing, going as far as to leave a "goody bag" in the room for once we were finally able to get there. We also had both breakfast and dinner in the restaurant there, and both Julian and Janae were our servers and exemplary! Last but not least was "Spiderman" in there lobby - very helpful and knowledgeable in answering our questions. A wonderful experience in every aspect!

Nothing - it was all wonderful!
