The Spotlight on Thomas Bond House Bed and Breakfast

Charming Historic Retreat in the Heart of Old City


Step back in time without sacrificing modern comforts at the Thomas Bond House Bed and Breakfast. This elegant, colonial-style B&B is nestled in the heart of Philadelphia’s Old City, just steps from iconic landmarks and a short ride to the city’s top concert venues. With free WiFi, air-conditioned rooms, and thoughtful touches like in-room wine or champagne, this cozy inn blends historic charm with convenience.

Why Concert-goers love it


Location is everything, and this B&B delivers. You're just a quick walk or ride-share away from popular venues and the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Enjoy a peaceful night’s rest in a quieter part of the city, away from the late-night noise. With private check-in and check-out and a friendly, secure atmosphere, it’s ideal for guests arriving late or heading out early.

Who this Hotel is great for


Couples turning a concert into a romantic weekend
Solo travelers attending a must-see show
Fans seeking a peaceful, post-show recovery spot
Budget-conscious travelers seeking value in a prime location
Small groups looking for a unique and memorable stay

Food and Drink Options


Start your day right after a late night with a continental breakfast of fresh pastries and fruit. While there’s no on-site restaurant, the B&B is surrounded by a wide range of walkable eateries, cafés, and bars in the vibrant Old City neighborhood.

Nightlife Options


While the inn itself is a quiet retreat, you’re just minutes from some of the city’s best bars, lounges, and live music spots. Whether you're in the mood for craft cocktails or a relaxed pint, you won’t have to go far.

What People Say


Guests rave about the historic charm, warm hospitality, and incredibly convenient location. Many love the unique character of the rooms, the peaceful setting, and the ease of getting to nearby venues and attractions. It’s especially praised for being a quiet, relaxing spot after a busy night out.

Areas for Improvement


Some guests mention that the historic building means smaller rooms and no elevators, so those with mobility concerns may want to request a lower floor. Noise from the street can occasionally be heard, though it’s generally quieter than other city-center stays.

The Bottom Line


If you’re looking for a charming, well-located hideaway to unwind after the show, Thomas Bond House Bed and Breakfast hits the right note.

A fantastic historical inn to...

Liked: We were greeted with a friendly smile and warm welcome and the home is just lovely - filled with artifacts and history and finishing touches that made it our home away from home. A glass of wine in the evening and Cookies before bed...what a special touch! Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. We walked everywhere and had a wonderful stay! Perfect location outside of noisey traffic and bustling streets, but close enough to walk everywhere. Such history !!!
Disliked: nothing was wrong. Walking up the stairs LOL - but we knew we would have to.

Liked: Everything was as advertised. It's a historic building so things are creaky and bathrooms are small but that's is to be expected. The staff were friendly but not overbearing and I loved the free wine hour and cookies! Breakfast was good, I loved the hot breakfast for the 4th of July, so cute!

If you are looking for...

Liked: Our third floor room had a nice view. It was also of the size from the 18th century-quite small, so be prepared for that! Getting in and out of the house with our flash pass was easy! locking our door with our 18th century key was a tad difficult. We did not stay for breakfast, but the first floor accommodations were quite comfortable.
