The Study at University City is a hotel located right next to Drexel University and the University of Pennsylvania. It is very close to the subway and within a short walk of the Amtrak station, in a very walkable area with nice restaurants and food trucks nearby.
The hotel offers beautiful, clean, and modern rooms that are fantastic, neat, and charming. The furnishing is kept well, the showers have great water pressure, and the room design is inspiring with excellent natural light. A minor note is that some rooms do not have many easy-to-use outlets. The common areas are beautiful, and there is a library on the first floor where guests can borrow books.
The service across the board is great, with friendly, helpful, and attentive staff at the front desk, door, restaurant, and in housekeeping. Check-in and check-out are fast and easy. The dining experience at the restaurant is fantastic and exquisite, with incredible catered food and perfectly prepared dishes. The hotel also offers charming touches like ginger cookies at the front desk.
Overall, it is an unforgettable, high-quality, and welcoming experience, perfect for both work and relaxation, and is highly recommended.
Upscale at affordable pricing. Bathroom door does not offer much privacy. Comfortable beds. Good food. Expensive parking. Would be nice if they had a rewards program for frequent guests. The selection of TV channels need an upgrade.

Great location for anything connected with Penn or Drexel. The rooms are slightly dated, but everything is clean. The service has always been excellent.
