Bed and breakfast vacation rentals in Philadelphia

We loved our stay at the Aaron Burr House! My daughter is a huge Hamilton fan, so staying here and in the Theodosia suite was right up her alley. Lisa and Ricardo were excellent hosts—we felt right at home right away. Shops and restaurants downtown are all walkable in just a few minutes. The house itself is beautiful and steeped in history. Such a fun, pleasant stay!

We have stayed with Jo-Ann several times, since we have a recurring event in this area and she has been extremely friendly without being overbearing and very flexible and accommodating each time. We will be happy to stay with her in the future.

I really enjoyed my stay there while being here in Philadelphia for the first time in my life. What a great city! Jo's location is very convenient to access downtown. Jo's home has radiated heating, which is wonderful for those sensitive to central heated air drying the nose and throat. Her home is quaint, warm, and inviting and situated in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. If I ever return to this great city, I will be sure to book Jo's BnB!

Ricardo was a delight and took great care of us. He made fantastic breakfasts each morning. While the house was built in the 1700s it could use a bit of attention in the bathroom. Shower leaked onto the bathroom floor and toilet needed multiple flushes. The other guests were all friendly and we definitely enjoyed our stay.

What a great find! JoAnn is a brilliant host and makes everything so easy. Her home is perfectly located in a residential area just a few blocks from the village and university. This is a real BnB, where she makes a beautiful breakfast for you, rare these days. I found the bed to be perfect. The room was just what I needed, with my own air control and work space, I had everything I need. This place is a gem. Book it.

We loved our stay! The room was nice and the property is lovely! The proprietor on site is friendly and helpful. Breakfast was tasty and nicely presented in the sunny common room with a great view of the fall colors outside. Definitely recommend.

The Aaron Burr house was just fantastic. Very clean and very close to town so getting around was a breeze. Plenty of parking off street. Ricardo, the manager, was fantastic and friendly and made amazing breakfast each day! Overall, a fantastic stay.

I had a lovely stay in Jo-Ann's clean and comfortable home. I was in Swarthmore for a reunion event, and appreciated that I was only a short walk from both the Swarthmore "Ville", which now has a nice selection of restaurants and a farmer's market on weekends, as well as the Swarthmore College campus and the SEPTA station. My room was immaculate and the beds very comfortable. Jo-Ann offer's a lovely breakfast spread and excellent coffee. She was very helpful and responsive to my questions, and the keypad entry made it easy to come and go. I enjoyed my stay and would be happy to stay here again!

Molly and Dan are fantastic people. They welcomed us into their home and made us feel like a party of the household. The house is full of warmth and charm found in antiquity. They’re black cat was super friendly. Would 100% recommend a stay at the James Matthew’s house. Beautiful garden, private covered porch, and so many snacks!!

A delightful experience through and through! Francois is doing Airbnb like it should be done. He’s a warm and perfectly interactive host, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our two nights! We unfortunately did not get to meet his fiance Keith and their dog Fez as they were out of town. Francois made us feel right at home as soon as we arrived. The space is just the epitome of cozy. There were so many thoughtful touches throughout the duration of our stay. The included breakfast was a level of hospitality that felt genuine and charming. His recommendations for places to eat and things to do were spot on and saved us from making at least one culinary faux pas! When we come back to Fishtown there is no question we will be staying here again! I’d give this place 10 stars if I could!

I have stayed at many B&Bs and this was, by far, the best experience that I’ve had. The place was amazing and exactly as described. It was a beautiful area, and Dolores might’ve been the most welcoming host I have ever met! The breakfast was on point and everything about this experience was perfect. I can’t recommend it enough!
