HOTELS: Park Hyatt at the bellevue & doubletree

There are more hotels and secure parking in the area than you could possibly imagine. Just like your ticket purchase, make sure you book the hotel well in advance. The rooms at The Park Hyatt at The Bellevue will sell out very quickly. Don't forget - we are at the perfect location here at Broad & Walnut Streets. The place everyone in the city wants to be the next morning for the New Year's Day Mummers Day Parade. For example, here is a link and sample right inside The Bellevue with room sample photos, and rates. If necessary, you and all your friends can just stay at the Doubletree across the street from The Bellevue. The Park Hyatt at The Bellevue will sell out fast. They are going to be about $325 a night, but with all your friends throwing in some money, that's cheap for a luxury room on New Year's Eve!

If you want to save a few bucks, then you can stay across the street (literally a stones throw across the street) at the Doubletree on Broad Street, which has rates of about $279 for New Year's Eve. Give them a call now at: (215) 893-1600. Either way, there are many other hotel options within feet of The Bellevue. There is even The Ritz-Carlton which is just a block away.
