great location 11/1/2002

There are many restaurants within walking distance as well as the great art supply store, Pearl. The inn is quiet and restful even though it is located in a busy part of the city. The rates are extremely reasonable. They have wine and cheese available in the afternoon--perfect after a day of sightseeing. more

A charming oasis 8/25/2002

My husband and I stayed at the Shippen Way Inn this summer, and I found it thoroughly charming and a nice respite from the frenzied South Street a block north. Our room overlooked a lovely little patio with sitting areas and a well-kept garden. We had free roam of the common kitchen/dining area and availed ourselves of cheese, wine, and tea, as well as the breads, pastries, coffee, and other treats provided us each morning. The price is right and the owner is very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this place. Pros: quaint, friendly owner, historic more

  • The Scene
    This is the perfect setting for tourists seeking living history. The charming inn harkens back to the days of Paul Revere, with decor that reflects the colonial style of 1750. It welcomes guests into a bustling reception area warmed by a lovely fireplace. Gardens abloom with seasonal herbs, and roses add to the old-fashioned tone of this countrified urban retreat.

    The Details
    Full breakfast daily is complemented by tea, wine and cheese served each evening near the communal fireplace. With only nine rooms, personal attention to each guest is a highlight. Each accommodation is individually decorated with antique furnishings and a four-poster bed. All rooms also have private baths. As for location, it doesn't get any better than this. A few minutes' walk delivers you to Philadelphia's South Street, the charming River District, numerous parks and countless eateries.
