PHILADELPHIA, PA—DoubleTree by Hilton and Hilton Worldwide have opened DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Airport, 4509 Island Avenue, Philadelphia, PA, located adjacent to the Philadelphia International Airport, just off Interstate 95 and only six miles from the heart of historic Philadelphia.
Formerly a Hilton hotel, the nine-story, 331-room property remains within the Hilton Worldwide portfolio of hotels as it joins the DoubleTree by Hilton brand following a dramatic $3 million property-wide renovation that includes modern updates throughout the hotel's lobby, guest rooms, restaurant and bar areas, and banquet and meetings areas. The hotel is owned by Sotherly Hotels and managed by Chesapeake Hospitality.
“With the beautiful renovation of this property, and its ideal location by the airport, we are proud to expand our hotel offering in the market,” says John Greenleaf, global head, DoubleTree by Hilton. “Business, leisure and event guests will benefit from a full range of features that prove the 'little things' mean everything – starting with our signature warm chocolate chip cookie greeting and continuing with the modern amenities and services offered at this hotel.”
The hotel has 12,000 square feet of meeting and banquet facilities. Its two ballrooms can accommodate up to 500 guests and 16 meeting rooms incorporate modern audio visual technology and sound systems.
