The Spotlight on Homewood University City Philadelphia Pa

Comfort Meets Convenience Near Philly’s Music Scene

Modern and relaxed, the Homewood University City Philadelphia Pa is nestled in the heart of University City and just a short ride to downtown Philadelphia. With spacious suites, full kitchens, and thoughtful amenities like a complimentary breakfast and evening socials, this all-suite hotel is a smart choice for fans looking to stay close to the action while enjoying some quiet comforts.
Only a 2-minute walk from the University of Pennsylvania and a 10-minute drive from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, it’s a well-placed base whether you're catching a show nearby or exploring the city between gigs.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel hits the sweet spot for music lovers. You're a short drive or rideshare from Philly’s top venues, yet tucked into a quieter neighborhood perfect for recharging after a loud night. The free local shuttle makes getting around simple, and the late check-out (12:00 PM) is a gift if you were out dancing till dawn. Suites come with kitchenettes—perfect for late-night snacks—and the free Wi-Fi helps you upload concert clips without a hitch.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want spacious suites and a chill base
  • Solo travelers seeing a bucket-list artist and wanting safety + comfort
  • Couples making a weekend out of a big show
  • Fans who need a quieter space to recover post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who appreciate free meals and in-room kitchens

Food and Drink Options

You won’t go hungry here. Every stay includes a free hot breakfast—ideal after a late night out—and on select evenings, the hotel offers a complimentary dinner with drinks. While there’s no full restaurant on-site, each suite has a full kitchen for DIY bites, and plenty of local eateries are just steps away on Walnut Street. Bonus: there’s a grocery store nearby if you want to stock up.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more on the relaxed side, you’re not far from the fun. Bars and lounges around University City and downtown Philly are just a quick Uber ride away. It’s easy to enjoy the scene and still return to a peaceful room for the night.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms, and the convenience of having a kitchen in every suite. The free breakfast and occasional free dinner are a hit with budget-minded travelers, and travelers love the easy access to both universities and downtown venues.

Areas for Improvement

The vibe is more “extended stay” than luxury, so don’t expect flashy décor or late-night bar service. Some guests mention that the neighborhood quiets down early, which is great for rest—but not so much if you're looking to party nearby.

The Bottom Line

A smart, spacious, and quiet base for concert-goers who want comfort, a little extra room, and easy access to Philly’s music scene.

Clean room; nice staff; decent coffee with early morning buffet. This is a decent, clean hotel for a reasonable price. I would absolutely stay again short term.

Overall a good experience.

Liked: The room and furnishing were comfortable and the kitchen and bathroom were clean. My view was lovely although I would not have expected a particular view. The front desk staff and the valet service were exceptional.
Disliked: I did not realize that my room was not freshened daily, or at all. I had no trash pickup or towel refresh. I had no coffee refresh. When I asked about it as I checked out, I was told I needed to call for towels and coffee. Also, that it was my responsibility to bundle the trash and put it outside my door. There was no signage in the room about all of this neither was I informed of the procedures upon check in. Frankly, I would never have thought that the trash, coffee refresh, towel refresh were my responsibility. The strange thing was that I did receive partial service on the first two days of my stay. Very poor communication. Also, my key card had issues working several times and I noticed that other guests had the same problem. One more item, when I took a fork out of the drawer it was dirty. All the forks were dirty and looked like they were used and just returned to the drawer.
