The Spotlight on Kimpton Hotel Monaco Philadelphia By IHG

Chic Boutique Vibes in the Heart of Historic Philly

Modern and full of personality, the Kimpton Hotel Monaco Philadelphia is a boutique hotel in Center City that blends bold design with historic surroundings. Just steps from landmarks like Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell, it's also perfectly placed for concert-goers wanting a stylish base near Philadelphia’s major music venues. With luxe touches like Frette linens, a rooftop lounge, and a pet-friendly policy, this hotel offers a playful yet polished city stay.

Why Concert-goers love it

Set in the heart of the city, this hotel makes it easy to reach Philly’s biggest music venues, whether by foot, SEPTA transit, or a quick rideshare. The Stratus Rooftop Lounge is ideal for a pre-show drink or post-concert wind-down with skyline views and a cozy fireplace. With 24-hour front desk service and a 12:00 PM checkout, it’s easy to roll in late and still sleep in. Despite being in the city center, guests report surprisingly quiet rooms—great for recharging after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a lively, central spot with great shared spaces
  • Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list show
  • Couples making a weekend getaway out of a concert night
  • Fans needing a calm, stylish place to recover post-gig
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want boutique flair and location

Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s Red Owl Tavern serves up breakfast, lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch—perfect for late risers after a night out. While there’s no official 24/7 room service, the on-site dining covers long hours, and the fully-stocked mini-bar in each room means midnight snacks are always an option. The area is walkable to tons of downtown eateries for a quick bite before or after the show.

Nightlife Options

Live music may draw you out, but you won’t have to go far for a vibe. The Stratus Rooftop Lounge is a stylish perch for sipping cocktails with DJs and occasional live acts. Plus, with Old City and Midtown Village just blocks away, you’re near some of Philly’s best bars, clubs, and lounges.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel's funky, upscale design and its unbeatable location for sightseeing and nightlife. Many rave about the friendly staff, luxurious beds, and the rooftop lounge’s ambiance. Pet owners appreciate how welcoming the hotel is, and concert-goers note how easy it is to get to venues and relax afterward.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that parking is pricey and valet-only, so plan for that if you’re driving in. Also, while the rooftop bar is a hit, it can get busy—especially on weekends—so arrive early if you want a seat with a view.

The Bottom Line

A stylish, music-friendly hotel in the heart of Philly, Kimpton Hotel Monaco Philadelphia is perfect for concert-goers who want comfort, convenience, and a little rooftop glamour.

Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

Richard, New York, visiting Freedom Mortgage Pavilion Sun, 25 September 2022

Liked: Spacious rooms and bathroom; nice part of town.
Disliked: We roomed next to a bridal party who partied loudly until 5:00 a.m. and kept the whole floor awake. Security interrupted them once, but they quieted down only for 5 minutes.

Everything about this hotel was nice, clean and comfortable. Nice staff. Parking in the garage behind the building was a pain. Didn't check out the roof lounge but will next time.

Location close to all landmarks

Liked: Location was fabulous, close to all historic landmarks walking distance from coffee shops, restaurants. Room was clean and decent size.
Disliked: The first room we got didn't have hot water, and took a while to move us to a different room that did have water, but shower head was wonky. Since we were in a rush to leave for a dinner reservation we chose to stay and not move to a third room. Smell in hallway was not very fresh, but room smelled fine and was clean.
