Care, Professionalism, and “Wow" Moments

We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding venue than the Hilton at Penn’s Landing! From start to finish, the team and working with Neil was absolutely amazing. Every detail was handled with such care and professionalism that we felt nothing short of “wow” every single moment. The food was impeccable, the service flawless, and the stunning waterfront views created the most beautiful backdrop for our celebration. Having all of our events and guests together in one place was not only convenient but made the entire weekend feel seamless and extra special. Truly unforgettable, we can’t recommend the Hilton at Penn’s Landing enough! Photography: Sarah for Emily Wren Photography emilywren.com

Perfect venue for our wedding

Alison, Jordana and the whole team at the Hilton were fantastic! We were so grateful for the inclusive package at the Hilton, which made wedding planning much less stressful. We had a unique vision for our wedding (Indian/Jewish fusion) and the Hilton's extensive experience with both South Asian and Jewish weddings put us at ease and we had the day of our dreams. The space was bright, big, and the location was really fun and convenient for our guests. They have multiple spaces to work with, so you don't need to wait for a room to be flipped, which was actually really convenient for our different vendors. We were able to have a Baraat outside the hotel before the ceremony. Even though it was during afternoon check-in time, the hotel staff helped us make it happen -- which we were really glad they could accommodate as it was an absolute highlight. The team answered all of our questions, big and small, and were communicative and professional.

Excellent Hotel for Wedding Block and Suite

The Hilton at Penn’s Landing was the perfect bridal suite location for my June 2021 wedding in Old City, Philadelphia! The hotel and location are stunning and the suite was extremely large, modern, and romantic, featuring a beautiful balcony overlooking the Delaware River. I loved getting my hair and makeup done in this suite because the lighting was amazing and the space was large enough to fit my 5 bridesmaids + 3 other wedding party guests. Alison Mann was also very sweet and easy to work with. She was prompt, professional, and ensured a great experience.

Great for wedding room block

We had a room block at the Holiday Inn for our wedding weekend and everything was great. Gloria was so great to work with and we found the room rates to be very reasonable. Our guests had a great experience.

We decided to book the Hilton at Penn's Landing for our wedding because of the fantastic location and the reasonable prices. Many of our guests commented on how they loved the location. There was something for everyone in the area -- Old City for the kids in the family, bars and restaurants for our friends, and the awesome park next door.

We were able to book a large room block that accommodated a lot of out of town guests. Our families aren't from the Philadelphia area, so it was important to us that we had a large block with handicap accessible options. They were great about accommodating these requests.

The day of the wedding, they gave us the Penthouse suite for myself and the bridesmaids to use to get ready. The room was amazing with a breathtaking view. We had not seen the ballroom that morning, so when we got back from our wedding, we snuck in to take a peek, and we could not have been happier. The ballroom we were in (Columbus) has huge floor to ceiling windows that let in a lot of natural light in the evening, and as the sun went down you could see the lights from the park. Overall the atmosphere was very romantic.

We also got a bunch of compliments on the food. We had many options between the passed hors d'oeuvres and the multiple stations. We even asked if they could add something to the menu for us (cheesesteak eggrolls), and they made it work. Dinner was just as good, and my husband's family can't stop telling us about the "steak you could cut with a butter knife."

Overall, we took a risk booking this venue because the ballroom was going to be redone after we booked it. In the end, we are so happy with how everything turned out. I'd highly recommend this venue to anyone.

I wanted to submit a view of how amazing our wedding was from October. People are still talking about how great of the venue, Hilton Penns Landing was! Our ceremony was so beautiful in front of the window overlooking Penns Landing Water. Our cocktail hour people are still ranting about! We had a shellfish bar and seafood bar and many stations, the food was just spectacular. I couldn't forget how great the staff was! From working with Gary to Jordana both were so great with the wedding process. Thank you all!

We held our wedding reception at the Hilton at Penn's landing in October and we had the BEST experience! From beginning to end the experience was just exceptional. Wonderful, attentive, professional staff! The food was excellent and the managers at the Hilton were constantly checking with us to be sure we were always taken care of. We can't say enough good things about the Hilton!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
