Holiday Inn Express and Suites Kailua-Kona, an IHG Hotel

$$ | 75-146 Sarona Rd., Kailua-Kona, HI, 96740, USA

Holiday Inn Express by IHG Penn's Landing

$$ | 100 N. Columbus Blvd., Philadelphia, PA, 19106, USA

Situated on a busy corner, the 10-story location can be noisy, but the affordable rates are the main attraction; if you have a room on an upper floor facing the Delaware River you can enjoy excellent views of the Benjamin Franklin Bridge. Standard in design but clean and well equipped, rooms feature work setups for business travelers and modern decor. A full hot breakfast is included in the stay. Old City is a bit of a walk, but the courtesy shuttle service is a nice plus. The hotel is a good location and value if you're attending an event near the waterfront.

Pros

  • Cheaper alternative to staying in Old City
  • Nice views of the river and Benjamin Franklin Bridge
  • Free shuttle to Center City

Cons

  • Isolated from Center City
  • Immediate area can be desolate

Holiday Inn Express Midtown

$$ | 1305 Walnut St., Philadelphia, PA, 19107, USA

What this hotel lacks in frills it more than makes up for with its central location; on-site, 24-hour fitness center; and complimentary breakfast bar. Rooms are surprisingly spacious, with contemporary furnishings, large work desks, and separate vanity areas. The location is excellent: one block from the Broad Street subway, near the theater and shopping district, and three blocks from the Pennsylvania Convention Center. During busy hours, be prepared to wait in line in a small lobby with lots of kids and groups.

Pros
