Great place, friendly staff, centrally located in the town, and just a few blocks from the Schuylkill River Trail, which extends all the way to Philadelphia. However, there is a bar across the street that played loudly until 2:30 a.m. when I stayed there on a recent Friday evening and I could feel the bass, so perhaps request a room further back from the street. Also, plan to eat at a breakfast cafe as the breakfast offered is just granola bars and coffee.

It was an amazing stay! Highly recommended!! The staff was so welcoming and helpful. It is literally right in the middle of downtown with a ton of shops, bars and restaurants all within walking distance. This is definitely the best place to stay in pheonixville!! And in the summer, they have an outdoor market/fair in the street right outside the front door. Although with that comes parking a little down the road (if it is in the summer months). But I would not let that deter you. Everything else was amazing! Highly recommend!!

So, if you’re planning to stay in Phoenixville, PA proper, this is just about the only option outside of an Air BNB.

Highlights: the location was immaculately clean. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Each staff member who we spoke with gave tips about local eateries or things to do in the area. Rooms were well-insulated which set the stage for a good night’s sleep.

Challenges: Parking! (It’s a known issue not just for the hotel but for every business in the area). They only have seven spots in their parking lot but also have options to park in other places.

No elevator. Now, normally, this is not an issue, but my wife just recently had knee surgery which made traversing the stairs arduous. Make sure to call ahead to book a room on the first floor.

Takeaways: we truly appreciated the extra time and attention that staff gave to our one-night reservation. For example, we were asked when booking the hotel if we were celebrating anything special. With this, I typed in, “anniversary”, booked the room, and thought nothing more about it.

I was impressed to find a hand written “happy anniversary” note waiting for us in the room. It was a nice touch which capped off an enjoyable weekend.

Mainstay is a perfect location for the Phoenixville downtown! The Italian restaurant downstairs is also delicious.

Only thing to take note is the space, two is perfect per room but 2+ may be a little tight since it is less space.

Was an okay place to stay. Unfortunately problems the staff had no control over overshadowed. Parking was a problem since there were only 7 spots otherwise you had to find a spot elsewhere. Internet was practically non existent so no tv even though there was a large screen tv. If like me you like to take a bath no stopper in the tub. On the positive side the town is idyllic.

We had a wonderful stay at the Mainstay Inn! Luckily for us Christina (one of the owners) was working, and she made our visit feel more like we were staying with family or a good friend, while taking care to make sure that we had everything we needed as only the best boutique inn/hotels do (and recommended the excellent neighboring Italian restaurant Il Granaio, where we had a birthday dinner). Our room was cozy, immaculately clean and well maintained, as was the rest of the lovely inn. You couldn't ask for a better location when visiting Phoenixville of the surrounding area, as it's right in the heart of their main street, and we look forward to staying again when visiting the area. Also, did I mention that the coffee was delicious? Five stars across the board, and thank you for helping to make out weekend so enjoyable!

This is a lovely, welcoming hotel with a great location. There is a fantastic Italian restaurant on the bottom floor. Admittedly, there is an issue with parking. If you arrive early, you can score one of the 7 spaces. There is a pay lot beside the hotel and another that accepts donations for parking just down the street. The staff work hard to help you locate parking. When I checked in they gave me a paper with all of my parking options. I had read reviews, arrived early, ate at the on site restaurant and took an Uber to and from my event. My stay was perfect!

Cute little hotel right in the middle of unique shops and restaurants. The room was clean and cozy. The vibes were very chill except the first night but we did arrive on New Year's Eve so we don't fault our neighbors for being a little loud. The staff was very kind and attentive. Breakfast was a little lackluster but there are quite a few cafes surrounding the hotel that if you need something more substantial you can just walk two mins to get it. Parking can be tricky. We were lucky to be able to park in their small lot for free. Everything we enjoyed was within walking distance so we didn't have to worry about parking for the rest of our trip. Overall, the place was perfect for the relaxing, easy going start to the year we were looking for.

Not truly pet friendly. An adult over the age of 21 must be with the dog in the room at all times per the maid and a woman claiming to be the owner. It was a loud tiny woman in a large GM SUV with those stereotypical Karen vibes in a Karen car. Fairly certain the owner. I get it, the rules are in the rules in a private establishment. An attempts to reach an amicable agreement was not possible. I would suggest in the future to mimic Hilton, have a printed list of all your rules that would have required acknowledgment and to be signed prior to check-in so that there are no surprises. Also an end table and or chair would have been nice. One side of the bed got one the other did not. Very odd. Overall the faucets, shows and cabinets look like they were straight out of the first house my parents bought in 1988. I will post photos on the Google review. I'm not sure if their original to the hotel or they got these from my grandma's house. This is not a boutique style that we are used to while traveling in America, Europe, Asia. Yadda yadda. This is more of a \"drop on in\" or \"Earl's truck stop\" vibe located in the middle of an Arizona desert, but really got lucky and had gentrification built around, it if that makes sense. I was at a roadside stop two days prior in Carlisle that was half the price and twice as Nice.

Although I asked about the parking situation before booking this hotel, Phoenixville decided to extend its weekend shutdown of the streets by one more week. This made it extremely inconvenient to get to the hotel and we had to drag our luggage through the streets. Parking was NOT available in the lots nearby or in the senior center later that evening. We ended up moving to another hotel and since I had paid nonrefundable (NEVER AGAIN) I had no recourse. The hotel also did not feel safe. The deadbolt on the door did not lock from the outside and there was no safe in the room. Just an uncomfortable situation all around. The staff was extremely pleasant and kind.

I was in town for one night as my son was touring and staying a night at University of Valley Forge 2 miles away.

The hotel itself was very nice for the price. Clean room, very polite and attentive staff. Downtown was great with all of the food options that were open until 11 on a Thursday evening in September.

I want to give special recognition to the gentleman that worked 3rd shift. He was extremely helpful and a joy to speak to at breakfast. When I unpacked, I realized that I brought the wrong phone charging block but he had a spare that he gave to me and told me to keep. He also gave me a backup wakeup call at 5 a.m. in case my phone didn't charge.

The only negative I have, and it did frustrate me quite a bit, was finding parking. There was a paid lot, but only until midnight. Street sweeping limited street parking. I was lucky enough to get a parking pass from the main desk at check-in and I squeezed into the last space in their lot when I returned from the college late at night...but I had at one point spend quite some time driving around town to find parking. It's not entirely the hotel's fault, it's the town's parking situation and how they have so many limits and charges on parking spots. Perhaps the hotel could provide a more detailed

Overall though, I'd stay there again if I had to. I have an idea of how to navigate the Phoenixville parking now.
