The birthplace of a nation is experiencing a renaissance as a top tourist destination. The first World Heritage City within the United States, Philadelphia boasts a rich history, a host of cultural sites and a new wave of beautifully conceived boutique hotels offering modern convenience and old-world charm. We find Philly fine.
Lokal is a beautifully designed boutique hotel in the heart of Philadelphia’s Old City. Comprising six apartment-style suites with ‘invisible service’, the hotel offers – as its name implies – the opportunity to live like a local. Quaint streets, heritage sites, and the city’s best bars are on it's doorstep. But with each suite featuring a kitchen and living area, it’s tempting to stay in too. You’ll enjoy all the perks of visiting, but also feel at home.
