Fodor's Expert Review The Notary Hotel

21 N. Juniper St., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19107, USA

This hotel is in the historic City Hall Annex, and the brass, copper, and bronze details, as well as the lobby’s ceiling and chandelier, are original from 1926. The location provides easy access to the Pennsylvania Convention Center, City Hall, Macy's, Dilworth Park, and Reading Terminal Market. The comfortable guest rooms have complimentary Internet access, refrigerators, iHome radios, and business-friendly amenities like full-size desks. All west-facing rooms have excellent views of City Hall's elaborate architecture. The new fitness center gets plenty of natural light and features machines equipped with flat-screen televisions. Sabroso+Sorbo, the Notary’s all-day restaurant, serves Spanish-inspired cuisine in a buzzy atmosphere.
