Great "sleepover" package...wonderful location, convenient parking garage! The hotel staff was attentive and helpful, and all requests were responded to promptly. They are still renovating the kitchens, but thanks to the travel website, I was prepared for that. There was no problem with the kitchen, it just was not updated. Next time I need a hotel in Philly it will be the Windor Suites!
I'd stay again

Nice hotel, nice staff and nice size room with a kitchenette! Good view overlooking a circle park. Free continental breakfast.
Check re: hot water

The hotel was perfectly located, the staff was wonderful, the room enormous. But: we were in a non-renovated room that had practically zero hot water. The engineers came a few times (promptly) and were unable to fix it. We got $50 off the bill for our inconvenience.
Be sure to request a renovated room OR check the hot water immediately when you get into the room before you unpack.
Very, very good...

I am a single, female business traveler with quite a few Philadelphia stays in my history. This hotel has to be one of the best kept secrets in Philadelphia! First off, you just can't beat the location; if you are doing the historical sites or have business in center city, the location is terrific. If you are doing business/visiting in any of the suburbs or across the river in Camden, you are right off the Parkway, with easy access and no major amount of "in the city" driving. You are in the same neighborhood with other higher priced hotels, but you paying a better rate. You are also about 1 block from Suburban Station, which means a $7.00 train ride directly from the airport and easy access to just about any place in the city. True, it's an older building but compared to most city hotel rooms, the room is 2 or 3 times larger than usual and comes with a fully equipped kitchenette. As a single lady, there are times when I would rather prepare something to stay "home" and you could do that here. The staff were friendly, courteous and very helpful. There is a small "business center" with computers and printers to use. The free breakfast wasn't spectacular but was sufficient. There is a super stand-alone Chinese restaurant just off the lobby inside the front doors; the Italian restaurant was gone. Although the furniture had a bit of wear, the mattress appeared to be new and comfortable. The room was well-kept and clean. Security involved elevators that will not open without a key card being swiped. Some floors are apparently reserved for full-time residents, which means that there are fewer hotel guests than most places, so less foot traffic.
More than Expected

The windsor is ideally located in Center City.Within walking distance to many sites of interest & dining.
The hotel is very clean & the room was much more than we expected.The livingroom/bedroom was very large.There's plenty of closet space.And the bathroom was clean,modern and spaceous.
But what really made our stay there was the staff.
The entire staff goes out of their way to accommodate your every need.
