Great place and location. Very convenient and accessible.
Will be back.
Only comment (more of a personal preference than issue) - there was no body lotion. It’s pretty dry this time of year so it would be nice to have body lotion after a shower. :)
The Lokal Fishtown "Garden Jawn" was such a beautiful, well-designed, elegant, airy and light-filled space. I arrived exhausted from travel and it was the perfect place to refresh and recover. The outdoor garden is a delightful quiet spot, the kitchen is a minimalist masterpiece, and the rainfall shower luxurious and refreshing.
The passing El makes a lot of noise, but it quickly just fades into the background. I'll definitely stay at the Lokal again next time I'm in Philly!
First time with Hotel Lokal. Fantastic location and incredibly cool space! Kitchen is spacious and well stocked and bed and room were very comfy. The location is absolutely perfection for all of the Fishtown restaurants. The staff was also very communicative. I will be coming back.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The information emailed from the hotel was extremely complete, which made our arrival very smooth. There is paid parking just a one minute walk up the street. The building is secured with a key pad. The property itself is very lovely- clean, modern, well thought out. There is a beautiful courtyard with a table and chairs. Our room was beautiful, sparkling clean and contained everything we needed for the kitchen.
It is just feet away from the train tracks, which does go by regularly, however the room is well soundproofed and it caused no more (actually less) noise than street traffic. If you are sensitive to sound they provide earplugs and also some rooms that do not face the tracks.
The only improvement that could be made is that the Expedia listing does not explain the process for this hotel. They have no on site personnel, your room charge is paid 7 days prior to arrival, your checking information is emailed to you- a handy guide to the hotel and area is sent about a week before and your PIN for access to the building and room are sent the day before. If you don’t receive any emails you need to make sure to call the property and give them your email address. I only found out the process because I called them to confirm my reservation.
The literally ONLY thing I would suggest they improve about the room itself is to replace the table top ironing board with a full size one. The table top one was a bit cumbersome.
The property was interesting and well designed but some things have not held up as well (missing penny floor tile in bathroom, bowing wooden floor planks) and the poor plants needed some TLC when we arrived. I also don’t recall in the description at booking that the room faced the train, and had a good view of it as it rode by.. it was loud but the windows were quite soundproof. Location was walkable to many restaurants but the street has lots of construction right now, and it is difficult to pull over to get out unless you pull up on the sidewalk. Parking is about a block away for $25 for 24 hours. Wish the tv could have been rotated to face the bed as well.
We really enjoyed our stay! Adorable neighborhood, with tons of restaurants and bars within walking distance. The room was exactly as pictured and was super clean and tidy. Invisible service was perfect, no hassle. If I could make any recommendations I would say to put the TV on a swivel arm so it can be viewed from the bed, as the couch is a little small for cozying up to a movie. Also, the walls are a bit thin. Overall, this was a 5-star stay for us - we never wanted to leave!
This is an amazing hotel in a terrific spot. Just steps from some of the best restaurant in the city. Room is appointed with many nice details and the kitchen in particular is super well equipped. Very clean.
Cons- bed was super uncomfortable. No hair dryer that I could find? Super minimalist style was nice to look at but there was hardly anywhere to set anything, no drawers for clothes, no nightstand. Given the other aspects of the room/location I would still stay here again despite my back and neck still being sore from that bed.
Stayed here several times, great property overall. Exceptionally put together. Only concern is the cleaning crew - this is the second time they have opened the door a couple hours early to enter before my actual check-out time. Maybe a sign on the door is needed to let them know we are still inside to avoid disturbing us (especially if we are in our robes or something)
