I love the staff here every single one of them have been super nice over-the-top very kind and personable. they got a great little breakfast area and cute and comfortable booths to sit in and I really enjoy the seclusion even with all of the arenas so close we’re in our own little nook of South Philly with everyone going north to go home we go south and we can even walk to all of the venues. so great location comfy room great staff excellent breakfast what can be better?!

Had a room with a great view of the stadiums. The guy at the front desk when i checked in at 1pm on 11/13 and the girl front desk around 10pm on 11/13 were two of the nicest hotel employees i have met anywhere, and i travel a lot. I forgot their names, but they were excellent

My husband and I stay in hotels frequently, and this was truly one of the cleanest, most peaceful, and pleasant properties we have ever experienced. From start to finish, our stay was exceptional. The hotel itself is beautiful, and every interaction stood out — from the professionalism and warmth of the front desk team, to the bistro staff, to the attention to detail from housekeeping. Everything was consistently well-done and exceeded our expectations. We travel often, and this location sets a very high standard. Easily a 10 out of 5. Excellent job, Marriott.

See Divyang Children With Your Heart, Not Just Your Eyes In a quiet corner of our society live children who do not ask for sympathy, praise, or special treatment. They are Divyang children—children with disabilities—whose daily lives are filled with challenges most of us never have to imagine. Some cannot see the colors of the world, some cannot hear the voices of their loved ones, and some struggle to take even a single step without support. Yet, their smiles are often the purest. When you look at them, do not look with curiosity or pity. Look with your heart. Behind every weak limb is a strong spirit. Behind every silent voice is a story of courage. These children wake up every day ready to fight battles that life chose for them, not because they wanted them, but because they are brave enough to face them. Your small act of kindness can change their world. A voluntary donation can help provide education, medical care, therapy, mobility support, and—most importantly—hope. This is not about charity for recognition; it is about humanity. Giving should come from the heart, freely and honestly, without expectation. We believe that happiness grows when shared. When you support a Divyang child, you are not just helping them—you are planting kindness in your own life. Families who give with sincerity often say they receive something priceless in return: peace, gratitude, and a deeper sense of purpose. For those who wish to learn more or support this cause, a QR code is available on our profile display picture. It leads to transparent information about how help reaches the children. No pressure. No obligation. Just a simple invitation to care. Because when you change one child’s life, you change the future.

I had a wonderful stay at the Courtyard by Marriott Navy Yard! The location is perfect—tucked away in the historic Navy Yard area, it’s peaceful but still close enough to downtown Philadelphia and major attractions. The hotel itself is modern, clean, and very welcoming. The staff made my experience outstanding. From check-in to check-out, everyone I encountered was friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful. The lobby has a fresh, open atmosphere with great spots to relax or catch up on work. My room was spotless, well-designed, and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I also really enjoyed the Bistro on-site—it’s so convenient to grab a fresh breakfast or a quick evening bite without having to leave the hotel. The gym was well-equipped, and the surrounding Navy Yard area is perfect for a walk or jog. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations. Whether you’re visiting for business, an event, or just a getaway, the Courtyard Navy Yard is a fantastic choice. I’ll definitely be back!

This hotel is very convenient to the sports stadiums. It is a quick walk to Xfinity Mobile Arena. The rooms are nice. The bed was very comfortable. The shower had good pressure. Staff was polite and helpful. The Bistro restaurant has really great food. I highly recommend the brussel spouts. They serve Starbucks coffee too. Great parking. It's $25 but worth it.

I like the Hotel and staff is friendly even though the rates are very high. I was surprised they don’t have smart TVs!! Food is above average, pretty good! Rooms are clean. If you are here for surgery, the toilet seat in my room seems less than 12 inches above the floor and you have to go in a very deep squat to use it! Very difficult after surgery. Nicety is so cute and friendly, excellent customer service! She deserves a promotion!
