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.

Liked: Clean, friendly staff, and great location.
Disliked: The floor ac unit in our room wasn't producing cold air so it was very warm in our room. The fans just blew around warm air.

Exceptional stay at a charming...

Liked: We absolutely loved our stay at the Thomas Bond House in Philadelphia. The building itself is full of character and history — the atmosphere inside feels like stepping back in time in the best way possible. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the staff clearly take pride in maintaining the space.We especially appreciated the complimentary coffee available throughout the day and the delicious breakfast in the morning — both were real highlights. The location couldn’t be better — right in the heart of the Old City, with all major historical landmarks just a short 5–10 minute walk away.We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting Philly. If we ever come back, we’ll definitely stay here again!

Rip off.

Disliked: This is a B&B, i expect 2 minimal things: a comfortable bed and a decent breakfast. BED: tiny stuffy room, uncomfortable bed, outdated everything (and not in a fun vintage way). The bedding was too small for the bed, it was a full outfitted for a twin. Room was freezing and we couldn't adjust the temp. Didn't get any sleep. BREAKFAST: was also bad, a chewey microwaved egg cup (no other option). Totally overpriced accommodations for this rate. We regret staying here.
