Local stay tip

If you’re staying in Philadelphia during spring or fall, try to book a room in Center City with access to a rooftop or outdoor lounge. The weather is usually just right for sitting outside in the evening, watching the city lights come alive after a day wandering the museums or grabbing a cheesesteak nearby. I’ve found that these spots get a lot of positive feedback from travellers who appreciate taking a moment to relax above the city hustle. Plus, being close to the subway or MFL trolley means you can get around easily and soak in different neighborhoods without much hassle.
