Thomas Bond House 129 South 2nd Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106

"Stayed here for one night for an event on the river, and it was so beautiful. We were able to walk everywhere we needed to be. The innkeeper Nature was so pleasant and the woman making breakfast was such a friendly face first thing in the morning. The place is very homey. The stairs could be an issue if youre not prepared, but it was such a nice place and restored so skillfully. The rooms are simple and clean, no mini fridge or microwave like a hotel but they did have a TV and an ice bucket. Bathroom was spacious and clean, beds were homey and comfortable. I will definitely be staying at this little gem next time im in the city"

"My husband and I have stayed at the Thomas Bond House on two occasions in 2023. Both visits were wonderful. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The house is beautiful and our room was clean and comfortable. We will continue to make this B&B our go to whenever we’re in Philly."

"We enjoyed our stay at the Thomas Bond House. The location was perfect for walking to historic sites (~15 min walk). There is a parking lot right next to the building, which was cheaper than some other garages downtown, so we kept the car parked and walked everywhere. It's also only ~30 min walk to Reading Terminal Market, which is great if you want to walk off all the delicious food you'll be eating there :) There is also a bike rental station right next to the building, so you can choose to ride around the area instead of walking. The staff were nice and the breakfast was pretty good. During the week you get a Continental plus breakfast, which was cereal, fruit, yogurt, assorted pastries/breads, tea, coffee, juice, milk. I didn't leave hungry. They also have wine in the afternoon and cookies in the evening. Our room was small, but had everything we needed. There were a few things in the room that needed repair, but it didn't affect our stay. The bed was comfortable. Be aware that there could be many stairs to climb to get to your room, depending on which floor you're on. We stayed on the 3rd floor, which I could see being a problem for someone with bad knees. The area is quiet at night and seemed safe. The doors are locked at all times, but you get a key card when you check in, so you can come and go as you please. I would stay here again. You can't beat the price for the location."

"Lovely stay, lovely staff! We stayed in the Thomas Bond Jr room - so pretty and comfortable. The wine at night was very nice after a long day. The whole inn is beautiful and close to everything you would want to see, and if it’s not walking distance, it’s still close enough for a quick Uber or drive. The parking deck right next door was a great thing to have. Yes, it’s all stairs, and yes the temperature fluctuates a little in the in between months, but it’s so worth it to stay somewhere so historic. Can’t wait for our next visit!"
