The Spotlight on Residence Inn by Marriott Philadelphia Bala Cynwyd

Comfort Meets Convenience Just Outside the City

Modern, extended-stay comfort meets a peaceful suburban vibe at Residence Inn by Marriott Philadelphia Bala Cynwyd. Just northwest of downtown Philadelphia, this stylish property offers a relaxed retreat near the city’s most iconic concert venues—without the bustle of Center City.
Whether you're catching a show at the Mann Center or planning a weekend of music and museums, this hotel puts you within easy reach of the action while giving you space to unwind after the encore.

Why Concert-goers love it

Located just about 3 miles from the Mann Center for Performing Arts and under 6 miles from several major venues like the Philadelphia Zoo Amphitheater and Temple University’s event spaces, this hotel makes post-show travel a breeze. With quick access to ride-shares and main roads, getting back after a late-night show is simple. The peaceful Bala Cynwyd setting also means quieter nights for recovery after the music fades. Flexible 3:00 PM check-in lets you arrive when it suits you, and 11:00 AM checkout gives you time to sleep in.

Delightful, woodsy spot with unexpectedly...

Liked: Exceedingly spacious rooms with a real kitchen, comfortable living area, including couch and a great bed. Plenty of space and light. Expansive common areas, nice breakfast. Outdoor seating adjacent the river. Appreciated that coffee was available 24/7. Nicely done esthetic integration with former steel plant. Kudos to the Architect.
Disliked: Perfect location for our needs, but probably not a good place to stay if your business is in downtown Philadelphia

Liked: The location was perfect in correlation with what we were there for. It was only an 11 minute walk away! The hotel and room was very clean. The bed was comfortable. The free breakfast they serve was one of the best I've had at a hotel and the staff at the breakfast was very helpful. There was a lady where you first entered the breakfast that was there to answer any questions like how to make a waffle and there was always staff cleaning up the tables so other guest could sit. I would definitely stay here again
Disliked: The only thing negative i could say is the way their curtains are in the room there is light that comes out the very top that you really can't control so if you like a dark room wear an eye mask if you want to sleep in
