Pros

Closest hotel to Temple University Hospital, Shriner's Hospital for Children, and Einstein Hospital

Walking distance to multiple universities including La Salle, Thomas Jefferson, and Drexel

Cons

Limited on-site dining options

“The Conwell Inn benefits from its unique spot on Temple University's campus, offering a historical boutique stay with affordable parking-a welcome contrast to downtown rates; inside, I note the clean, comfortable rooms alongside thoughtful touches like evening cookies. While some may find the beds too soft, the charm and convenient access to campus make this inn a practical choice.”
