The Morris House is a quaint and lovely place to stay in Old City Philadelphia. The Historic District is right there. It is convenient to the Italian Market, the Waterfront, and the Gayborhood. Rittenhouse Square is not too much of a walk. Museum Row is a bit of a hike, but doable if you want to walk it. All the rooms are a decent size. The bathrooms are large; ours had a shower and separate soaking tub. The amenities are adequate, but what you might expect from a structure built in the 18th century. The staff are fantastic! They will help you find whatever you are looking for and tell you where you should go and, just as important, places you should stay away from. I would stay there again (and probably will). I highly recommend it.

The staff was excellent. We were interested in the local history, sites, and museums and the gentleman that checked us in was able to give us a wealth of information about the area, the hotel and provided tips on securing tickets for museums that we otherwise wouldn't be aware of. Great property, great area of town and great staff.

We had a warm welcome from all the innkeepers to this historic place, which reflects its moment in Philadelphia's long history. If you like quaint, you'll love this place! And, it needs some freshening up and updating -- the furnishings, though of the period, feel dated and a bit worn. Even some good Scandinavian room freshener and a more minimalist and modern decor would help, as would an upgraded breakfast, which was not far from something you get at a chain motel. Since I'm a baker, I'm always surprised when the offering isn't very creative or nutritious, which wouldn't take much (some non-dairy yogurts? a GF wholegrain muffin or wholegrain muffin that is not GF? A berry compote? nuts and dried fruit for cereal?). I'd love to say I'll be back, as truly the innkeepers were wonderful, but I'd want to see more investment in the guest experience, not only the historic nature of the property. Just my two cents!

We typically don’t stay at small inns, bed-and-breakfast or boutique hotels but in this instance we did. Grateful as its history and location made it the perfect place to be for our three night stay in Philadelphia. From the moment we checked in, to time spent in the pleasant common rooms and at breakfast we felt well cared for.

Jerry was particularly helpful in answering questions regarding the order in which to see sites and what not to miss.

This was our first visit to Philadelphia and we absolutely loved it.

The is a cute, quaint hotel with a lot of nostalgia. The rooms are very spacious, comfy beds with plenty of pillows. The location was perfect, we walked around til after 11:00 pm & felt safe. Staff was wonderful. My only comment was we were on the 3rd floor, which was “ok” for us mid 50’s. But if you have bad knees, etc I would make sure to get a room on the lower floor. Parking garage is right across from the hotel. I would definitely stay here again…

A wonderful experience. The historic house

Our room was spacious and carefully outfitted with a mixture of stately antiques
and later pieces. The breakfast was

We certainly enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay there again. It could not have been better.

Morris House is a beautiful boutique hotel. The room and hotel itself were very clean. Room service was offered daily. They don’t have an elevator, but they help with carrying luggage to upper floors. I did eventually get used to the stairs - they are steep and long. Breakfast is continental with the same options daily. The fruit was fresh and the muffins were tasty. They have a large tea selection for us tea lovers. While a parking garage is literally across the street, it is a little cumbersome to get your luggage from the garage to the hotel. I didn’t know at the time, but you can pull up to the hotel to unload and then park in the garage. I did not know the parking didn’t have in and out privileges, so the parking is expensive and inconvenient given the price point. The location is convenient to many of the attractions and historical sites in old city and city center. I was able to walk to all of those.

Excellent location, old school charm, and the room on the second floor was perfect for our family of 4. It was more like a bed and breakfast experience than hotel. The only downside is it isn't very accessible for those with physical disabilities. That was not a concern for us, you should know before booking.

I was pleasantly surprised with my room, the beautiful bathroom. It was a lovely, very comfortable stay. A convenient walk to Jefferson outpatient center, was easy and safe. Then I returned for continental breakfast which was more than adequate. I loved the vegan cranberry cookie. The staff were super friendly and pleasant. This was a gem to be able to stay here, thank you, I hope to stay here again in the future.

I spent one night here and upon entering I was greeted by a lovely woman named Linda who showed me around the house and told me the history. The room was clean and spacious with a TV and plenty of books. Breakfast was healthy and simple which I appreciated. Walking distance to parks and coffee shops. When I checked out Julio was very helpful and help my bags. Overall I look forward to staying here again!

The complementary breakfast is lavish. It doesn't seem to have any parking. It's beautiful and charming, but because it was built in 1787, the floors are uneven in places, and it has no elevator so it's not a good hotel for old people.

Liked: Charming historic house. Super friendly staff. Room/suite clean and spacious. Great value for the money.
Below par: the morning continental breakfast is served in a historic dining room -- but there was hardly enough space on the credenza for the food, plates were tiny and the selection was very limited. If this got improved a bit, it would be a 5-star experience.

Looking forward to going back to the Morris House. This boutique hotel is perfectly located near the hospitals and downtown Philadelphia. Scott the manager on duty on Tuesdays and Wednesdays went out of his way to take care of us. From the freshly baked cookies that are set out at 3pm with tea and coffee to wonderful breakfast served in the dinning room every morning, this space is lovely. Our room was spotless, with two thick robes, and all the amenities. Mattress was very comfortable. Really cannot say enough nice things about this gem of a hotel.

We were met by a delightful and informative gentleman (John?) manning the front desk who truly loved his hometown of Philadelphia and was a wealth of knowledge and orientation for us. He filled us in historically, culturally and using a map, gave us lots of direction and advice, which was helpful as we only had two nights here. A very historic house, 1787, and inspiring to stay in.

Quaint little B&B near Wills Eye Hospital (perfect for a stay after you’ve had surgery). Linda provided a great tour full of historical highlights. Our favorite part was the freshly baked cookies for afternoon “tea”. (The cranberry oatmeal were superb). The house was preserved very well and they even give you a bronze key to get in/out of your room. Would definitely stay again!!
