The Kimpton Palomar is a very nice hotel in the middle of center city. For us close to where my son lives. The area is walkable to dining, shopping and public transportation. It is close to many of the tourist areas if that’s what you want to do. The hotel was clean overall. The staff was kind and took care of our requests. Cons: I wish parking wasn’t so expensive and there wasn’t a resort fee. I’m not sure why that is even a thing. A microwave in the room would have helped for the leftovers from the great restaurants we went to. The breakfast at the hotel was good, reasonably priced. Overall our stay was great. We appreciate the staff.

Other than opening the bed to take a nap and finding blood stained sheets, I enjoyed my stay. Staff quickly changed my bedding with brand new sheets. Comfy stay overall with a nice street view of Philadelphia.
