The Spotlight on Best Western Plus Philadelphia Convention Center Hotel

Comfort and Convenience in the Heart of Philly

Modern and affordable, the Best Western Plus Philadelphia Convention Center Hotel places you right where the action is—just blocks from the city’s top music venues and entertainment hubs. With clean, practical rooms and free WiFi throughout, it’s a solid base for your concert-filled getaway.
Located just 1312 feet from the Pennsylvania Convention Center and less than a mile from iconic Philly landmarks like the Liberty Bell and Barnes Foundation, this hotel puts you within walking distance of both culture and nightlife.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans especially love this hotel for its super central location. You’re just a short walk or quick ride from major venues, and with a 24-hour front desk, there’s no stress coming back late after a show. The atmosphere is quiet enough for post-concert wind-downs, and the nearby transport options make getting around Philly a breeze.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends needing a budget-friendly launchpad for a music-filled weekend
  • Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list tour stop
  • Couples looking to pair a show with a city break
  • Fans who prefer a quieter space to recharge post-gig
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want to be close to the action without breaking the bank

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t offer extensive dining, there is an on-site bar for a quick drink after the show. Better yet, the surrounding area is packed with walkable eateries offering everything from late-night bites to hearty breakfasts the next day. Room service isn’t available, but with so many options nearby, you won’t go hungry.

Nightlife Options

You’re in the middle of it all—whether you're heading to a concert or looking for a place to keep the night going. Dozens of bars, lounges, and clubs are within walking distance. Prefer something low-key? The hotel bar offers a more relaxed vibe to unwind with a drink.

What People Say

Guests frequently mention the hotel’s excellent location and clean, comfortable rooms. Reviewers on TripAdvisor and Booking.com often highlight the friendly front desk staff and the convenience of being close to both concert venues and public transit. Many guests say it’s a great value for the price.

Areas for Improvement

While the location is a major plus, some guests have noted that the area can feel a bit quiet or less lively late at night. Also, be prepared for off-site paid parking—the hotel doesn't have its own lot, so you’ll need to plan ahead. And take note: the hotel has strict ID and credit card policies at check-in, so double-check your documents before arrival.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want a clean, centrally-located place to crash—without the bells and whistles—the Best Western Plus Philadelphia Convention Center Hotel hits all the right notes.

Poor - 1.0 out of 5

Rebecca, P, visiting The Met Philadelphia Thu, 9 November 2023

Horrible because Best Western was not a place I felt comfortable staying in. Was charged 205.00 for nothing. They didn't even try to make up for false advertising.

Liked: Nothing.
Disliked: Appearance of hotel outside and inside.

Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Sharon, Baltimore, visiting The Met Philadelphia

I would not recommend. Not close enough to any attractions you would feel safe walking around in. Parking is a block and a half away. The mattress on my bed almost sank to the floor when I sat on it, so not a comfortable sleep.

Liked: The room appeared clean and it was not noisy during the overnight hours.
Disliked: The breakfast buffet was the worst. I got yogurt from the little cooler and it had expired the week before. The bananas all had dark spots. The waffle maker was missing a knob and was not working. Turkey sausage was so hard and dry it was inedible. House keeping staff were very loud early hours - sounded as thought they were talking on their cell phones.

Sam, Bloomsburg, visiting The Met Philadelphia

Plan for city traffic and this is just a perfect hub for your experience.

Liked: Just about everything from the front desk's help identifying a mistake to the cleanliness of our room. Complimentary breakfast was good (except for the sausage - not a fan).
Disliked: None. Lyft to and from the concert was easy.

Comfortable accommodation at a reasonable...

Liked: Comfortable accommodation with friendly staff in a quiet location. Room facilities a bit older, but everything clean and functional. Public transport within walking distance. Relatively close to the center. Breakfast was good.
Disliked: The windows in the room couldn't be opened (they were locked) and we couldn't air out the room.

Chandra Sun, 22 June 2025

Never Again will I stay...

Liked: There was nothing I liked about breakfast and the location is dangerous and unsafe.
Disliked: The room wasn't cleaned as well as out should have been. The carpet and the bathroom shower was dirty. Them you have to wait awhile for the hot water to travel up the floors before you can use it. The breakfast was horrible The cheapest brown and serve sausage with hard cooked egg whites everyday. With hard waffles. The server threatened a vacationer who was foreign. The young black girl was nasty and stayed with the lady about breakfast. It was a language barrier issue as the lady didn't understand English well. The area was noisy right by the elevator. People in there rooms were loud. Kids running up and down the hall.
