Great Experience

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 11 Dec 2024
Our staff holiday event was held here, and the Sheraton Staff (Teresa, Jackie, Margaret, Sharon, and Chef Rodney) were amazing and friendly. The service and food were excellent. I look forward to returning again. I would recommend this venue to others.

Reviewed 10 December 2024

I was here due to a family member being admitted to the hospital which is already stressful. First thing i noticed was the prices are good compared to other places around. They explained in detail what charges are upfront without any surprises. Next thing is the customer service went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable on my stay and were able to be flexible on dates and check out times which was one less stress factor i needed to worry about. I would personally like to thank Romy Martes, Tammy Rose and Anthony Brandon. They helped me through all of my questions and concerns. They made sure everything was being done correctly and the empathy and compassion they showed for our situation and us made us feel like we were with family. If i am in need of a hotel stay this will be my first choice.

Room tip: If you have a car definitely get the garage stay there is alot of on street parking.

The ladies on the 20 th floor in Club room took great care of us at breakfast both mornings. Food was hot, varied and delicious. Self serve, latte machine was great touch and snack availability was appreciated. Included with room rate, beautiful view over Eagles stadium too.

Service is top-notch, very friendly. Teresa, Margaret and Jackie are gems. I went up to the lounge prior to an early flight to get coffee (prior to their breakfast window), and they greeted me with good banter and laughs. The room was about average for this level of hotel. The front desk staff are great too.

Conveniently located for my trip in Philly's University City on the University of Penn campus. The rooms are a bit tired (hence the ongoing renovation), but the hotel was quiet and the staff was excellent, especially Jonathan, who helped me solve a parking problem.

The Sheraton University City Hotel is located in an easily accessible location in Philadelphia. The staff were incredibly welcoming, especially Ty, who always has a radiant smile and is always impeccably dressed!
The rooms are immaculate and very comfortable. On-site parking is a plus. There is an on-site Asian Restaurant that has an authentic Asian menu. There are many excellent restaurants that are in walking distance, also stores, & pharmacies.
The rooms were spacious and had amazing views.
We had a sumptuous breakfast in a room that had magnificent views.
Ty surprised us with a couple of upgrades!
We have stayed at the hotel many times and will return.
We highly recommend this hotel.
