The Bottom Line:

The Independent Hotel is in the art district of Philadelphia, within walking distance to Broad Street theaters, The Avenue of the Arts, The Liberty Bell, and Reading Market. Guests consistently report that the rooms are clean, comfortable, and spacious. However noise level is indicated to be an issue due to street traffic, nearby bars, and building equipment. Although guests seem to like the central location some had issues with safety due to the presence of prostitutes and criminal activity near the hotel.
