Eggs and bacon were very overcooked and asked to redo but were no better second time. Valet communication was very poor. We notified them more than 30 minutes in advance twice and they did not communicate to bring the car around. When we went downstairs they had no indication

Stay to Bring Granddaughter Home for Chroistmas
We got a great deal during construction on the property. Everything high quality and friendly. All that 2 minutes from our granddaughter's dorm. Excellent restaurant.

A Gem
I’ve stayed at The Study 4 times now since my daughter started at Drexel in the fall of 2024. The proximity to campus cannot be beat and the hotel itself is wonderful.

6/10 Good

The lobby is was under construction as well as the restaurant so there was nowhere else in the build to go and get food. I also got shocked every time I pressed the elevator button. I will say the whole was very quite and I was able to relax. They were also not clear on where to park until afterwards so I want an extra $22 on a parking garage that didn’t allow overnight parking.

We’ll be back!
We are here for a medical appointment. Crazy trip into Phillie but the stag here is phenomenal! Only issue is parking. I chose not to have valet parking but now have unanswered questions on how to pay for the parking at the lot when we leave. Wish the staff had mentioned at checkin the actual cost of valet parking and all the benefits.

Perfect place near UPenn
I needed a place to stay while my husband had a procedure at the university of Penn. It was a short walk from the hospital. They had a restaurant attached to the hotel. It was closed for a private event, but they were able to send food to the room. It was delicious.

Happy Thanksgiving
Amazing peaceful neighborhood. We stayed on Wednesday night so that we could see the Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day parade. My only issue was parking. We used a neighboring garage and the doors were on the opposite side of hotel. By no means not hotels fault. Just a heads up to others for there stay. Maybe use valet parking

8/10 Very good

Very nice
Really nice property conveniently located. A couple of quirks: rooms don’t generally have coffeemakers so you have to request them. And there were miscommunications around that. Also no ice bucket in room, you have to go request one in the restaurant. Also not clear on check in if there is a gym available. I got the impression that folks who stay there are either with conferences that are organizing everything for them, or that they stay there often. Anyway. All the staff are lovely.

The Study is beautifully designed. Sitting in the lobby was lovely. I appreciated the complimentary coffee and tea in the morning, and the free newspapers -- what luxury to sit in a lovely room watching people come and go. My breakfast in the hotel restaurant was very good. The room was beautiful, as well, and had a little study with a great selection of books on the shelves. Lots to dip into! This is my new favorite hotel. I'll defintiely return.

Very nice hotel and common spaces. Good restaurant on site and love that it’s a dog friendly hotel. For anyone visiting Drexel or Penn, very convenient location and staff was very nice. Only complaint, there wasn’t a mini fridge in the room, would have expected it especially because we booked a luxury room.

Loved the study room off the bedroom with its loads of books. Made it easy to work at the end of the day. Very convenient for conference at university.
