Welcome To Courtyard Philadelphia Downtown

Stay timeless chic at our historic Philadelphia, PA hotel

Housed in a century-old, 10-story Georgian revival-style structure once home to the city’s marquee YMCA, our boutique hotel in Philadelphia unlocks the city’s heart, history, and business district. Our 202 oversized rooms feature bold black-and-white décor and red accents to enhance rich millwork, paired with unique features like single-serve Illy coffee makers, mini-fridges, and free Wi-Fi. Meetings and weddings reside in our 9,000 square feet of stylish and natural light-filled event space, including our City Hall-view Grand Ballroom, a stately yet original setting for any gathering. Our hotel near Wells Fargo Center and venues in downtown Philadelphia are also just 1/2 block from the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Striking features and architectural detail awaken the eye: a skylight allows natural light to play through our 75-foot central atrium courtyard, while graceful archways and classic woodwork bring endless possibility to our airy restaurant in downtown Philadelphia. Travel the city in style.
