The Holiday Inn Express Penn's Landing is located next to the Delaware River and Ben Franklin Bridge right off of Columbus Blvd near Penn's Landing and the historic attractions. The hotel was renovated earlier this year with new modern décor; the lobby features a fireplace and large seating area for breakfast or anytime of the day to take advantage of the complimentary WIFI. Amenities include complimentary breakfast, WIFI, in room safes, fitness and business center, ATM and shuttle service that has a one mile radius-runs in the mornings and afternoons.

The only thing missing in the room was the refrigerator and the microwave. Other than that, everything was great. Room service helped us out to open the door and get in the room. When we asked her for a microwave, she was ready to put a request for us to get it in the room, but we politely declined. She was great. The breakfast very delicious and we really enjoyed it.
